Germany has provided another tranche of military aid to Ukraine, which includes armored vehicles of various purposes and ammunition.
The list has been published on the official website of the Federal Republic of Germany.
As part of the new tranche, the German government has transferred to Ukraine 4 mine-clearing vehicles WISENT 1 and 4 patrol cars.
The package also includes other demining equipment, including 250 demining kits, materials for disposing of explosive objects, and 3 mobile remotely controlled demining systems.
In addition, the new package includes 147 night vision devices, 10 reconnaissance unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) of the Vector complex with spare parts, 12 SatCom satellite communication terminals, and 22 drone detection and suppression systems.
Furthermore, as part of the aid, 14,000 artillery ammunition of caliber 155 mm was transferred.
The Wisent 1 is a tracked armored engineering vehicle created based on the main battle tank Leopard 1, designed for mine clearance. Its main task is to create passages in minefields. It automatically marks the cleared area so that infantry and other vehicles can pass through safely. The Wisent 1 MC is equipped with a mine plow 3.5 meters wide, a lane marking system, an auxiliary winch, and a crane with a lifting capacity of 30 tons.
The Vector UAV is an unmanned aerial system with vertical takeoff and landing capability, equipped with the HD-40LV optical-location station with a laser rangefinder. This type of UAV provides real-time aerial reconnaissance data in an efficient and user-friendly format thanks to its built-in artificial intelligence. The system also relieves the operator from constant video monitoring.
Built-in algorithms enable automatic object identification and immediate transmission of key reconnaissance information to the ground. Encrypted porous IP communication sends video streams up to a distance of 15+ km. Flight time is up to 120 minutes. All of this is combined in a compact and reliable electric VTOL UAV.
