Germany will accept the Ukrainian military for training on Bradley armored vehicles.

The U.S. Department of Defense specified that the training will be held in the German Grafenwoehr Training Area.

Allies are in constant dialogue with Ukraine to determine what security assistance is needed based on battlefield conditions.

The United States is trying to provide Ukraine with means to help with offensive operations.

“We will continue to consider their needs based on their requests and will try to provide them with the capabilities necessary not only to protect their country, but also to return the territory,” the Pentagon said.

One of these means is the M2 Bradley infantry fighting vehicle, which Ukraine will receive in the M2A2 ODS version.

But the Pentagon is not going to announce in advance exactly when these systems will appear in Ukraine.

“We will continue to work as quickly as possible, and I am sure you understand this, we are not going to announce in advance when exactly these systems will appear,” the U.S. representatives said.

The Pentagon is confident that Ukrainians themselves will show combat vehicles when they arrive in the country.

Recall that the new package of military assistance from the United States for Ukraine includes 50 infantry fighting vehicles M2 Bradley.

The package also includes ammunition from 500 TOW anti-tank missiles and 250 thousand 25-mm rounds to the autocannon of this IFV.

The modification of the M2A2 ODS that Ukraine will receive is developed based on the experience that the United States received during the hostilities.
