Germany’s largest manufacturer of military equipment and armaments, Rheinmetall, has received an order from the German Armed Forces for up to €4bn worth of tank ammunition.
This is reported in a statement of the concern.
It is noted that the original agreement for the supply of 120 mm tank ammunition, including ammunition for Leopard 2 tanks, was expanded to compensate for the ammunition shortage in the German army amid arms supplies to Ukraine.
“The framework agreement also provides for the delivery of a significant amount of tank ammunition for the Ukrainian Armed Forces,” Rheinmetall said in a statement.
Earlier it became known that the German defence concern Rheinmetall intends to open in the next three months in Ukraine a plant for the production and repair of armoured vehicles.
