Thank you @rheinmetall 🥳 who has done more for 🇺🇦 than some European countries 😕

Eventually, after they built the Russians a training centre at Mulino.

It’s a business. I don’t expect them to be first movers on ethical matters.

Almost everybody in the West was happily trading with fascist Russia - even after 2014.

And some dirty western firms are still in Russia.

You are being to harsh on 🇩🇪. Has been a serious supporter of Ukraine.

But have followed the stupid red lines of the Biden government and is said not to be doing any “Zeitenwende” with its own defense.

stanic042.bsky.social•55 days ago

dany-s.bsky.social•56 days ago

Where do they come from and how many more can UA expect?

Germany and a facility being built in Ukra, so a lot.

I think the existing factory is in Hungary. They were ordering them first. But yes, Ukraine is supposed to make them soon inside the country too.

horvatt.bsky.social•56 days ago

And Italy is also evaluating Lynx (they got it from Hungary).

padawanfella.bsky.social•56 days ago

Improved Marder, will be interesting to see it in action.
👍

horvatt.bsky.social•56 days ago

The Kf31 is the improved Marder. Kf41 is new design.

we need to fund EW capabilities for all vehicles!

elnosnusk.bsky.social•55 days ago

I’m not sure EW is the answer; fiber optic drones and AI drones don’t get jammed.

What we need is a CIWS based around an automatic shotgun.

davidsvajda.bsky.social•56 days ago

Do they have atleast some protection against drones??

Fantastic. Interesting: at Eurosatory 2024, Rheinmetall presented a demonstrator of the Lynx Skyranger 30 air defence vehicle and, for the first time, a demonstrator of a direct fire support/ light battle tank with the HITFACT MkII 120mm turret from Leonardo [..]. (Source Rheinmetall)

While Russia's military goes back in time, the AFU gets some very new and modern equipment.
