As previously reported, the Ukrainian Air Assault Forces showcased the German Dingo armored vehicles that were adopted by the Ukrainian forces.
It is now known that 30 Dingo armored vehicles have been sent from Germany to Ukraine, and another 20 units of the same equipment are scheduled to be transferred.
Dingo ATF is manufactured by Krauss-Maffei and is in service with the German and Luxembourg troops. The vehicle is made on a Unimog chassis.
The equipment is designed for patrolling and reconnaissance. The design of the vehicle must withstand the explosions of mines, improvised explosive devices, as well as small arms bullets, fragments of artillery shells, grenades, etc.
The Ukrainian military also showcased the deployment of the German MARS II MLRS.
This launcher is basically a licensed copy of the American M270 MLRS with minor modifications.
Mars II is designed to destroy clusters of enemy manpower and equipment, artillery batteries, air defenses, command posts, and communications, as well as to set up the minefields through remote mining.
According to the German government, at the moment, Ukraine has 5 units of MARS II MLRS. In addition, the German government recently handed over additional ammunition for this MLRS to the Ukrainian army.
