Germany’s largest manufacturer of military equipment, Rheinmetall, intends to open production of armored vehicles in Ukraine, in particular Fuchs armored personnel carriers, Rheinmetall CEO Armin Papperger said in an interview with Bild.
“We will start with the maintenance and repair of emergency vehicles and want to produce armored vehicles such as Fuchs armored transport vehicles as soon as possible,” Papperger said.
According to him, Ukraine is also interested in combat tanks of modern modifications.
“Ukraine is also interested in a modern Panther battle tank and Lynx infantry fighting vehicle. However, the first step is to provide for the country’s urgent needs in its defensive struggle,” Papperger noted.
