Ukraine to Triple IRIS-T Missile Supply Amidst US-Russia Tensions
A memorandum of understanding between Ukraine and Diehl Defence, the IRIS-T system manufacturer, has been signed. This agreement significantly expands Ukraine’s air defense capabilities by tripling the supply of missiles and systems. The increased supply builds upon Germany’s previous commitment of 17 IRIS-T systems, a crucial component of Ukraine’s air defense network. This collaboration ensures continued protection of Ukrainian cities and skies against aerial threats. The agreement facilitates substantial industrial projects to further enhance Ukraine’s defensive prowess.
