This is happening within the framework of an agreement with the Rheinmetall concern. This was stated by the General Director of Ukroboronprom, German Smetanin, in an interview with ArmyInform.
In a short time, we have gone from concluding an agreement and registering a joint venture in October 2023 to starting production facilities. It was quite a difficult path, but the first German combat vehicles are already being restored in Ukraine, the official noted.
According to Smetanin, further development and deepening of cooperation with Rheinmetall is planned. And in the short term, the Ukrainian defense industry plans to move on to repairing artillery systems.
In addition, it is planned to create a joint venture that will produce the latest German Lynx infantry fighting vehicles, a multi-role armored tracked platform with great potential.
Let us recall that the American company Northrop Grumman plans to establish ammunition production in Ukraine. At first, they plan to produce medium-caliber ammunition, and later, 155 mm tank shells.
