According to #Rheinmetall_CEO #Armin_Papperger, the contract worth hundreds of millions of euros will be signed on 10 September at the #DSEI defence industry exhibition in London.

ℹ️ #Skyranger is a mobile air defence system that can be installed on #Leopard tanks.

#Rheinmetall CEO #Armin_Papperger on plans to build plants in #Ukraine:

"The first plant to start operating was a vehicle repair plant, an ammunition plant is currently under construction, and the third plant we would like to build is for the production of anti-aircraft systems."

"What struck me personally is the courage that #Ukrainians are showing, the courage with which they are fighting. How they resist and how they fight for their freedom," Mr #Papperger shared.

By doing so, we are making a significant contribution to #Ukraine's defence capability and providing much-needed resupply for #NATO partners," #Armin_Papperger said.

Thank you for supporting #Ukraine!
