We are also supporting air defense in the fight against drones, and we will most likely deliver the equipment for this next year.
In addition to the Piranha, there are also those logistic vehicles you see here, which we have delivered and will deliver again later. We will deliver medical equipment that we have managed to deliver very quickly for the National Army,” said Boris Pistorius.
The Ministry of Defence also received a new consignment of assistance from the Federal Republic of Germany on Friday, 31 May.
