Germany will transfer additional Patriot launchers in the coming days as a first stage. In the second stage, over the next 2-3 months, other components of the system will be transferred. This was announced by Defense Minister Denys Shmyhal, as reported by UNN.
Germany will supply Ukraine with two more Patriot systems. The importance of their transfer was discussed this week with German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius. In the coming days, the Bundeswehr will supply additional Patriot launchers as a first stage. In the second stage, over the next two to three months, other components of the system will be transferred.
The Minister of Defense emphasized that this is the result of joint efforts of the USA, Germany, and other NATO countries.
"We are grateful to all our partners involved in this project. More air defense capabilities for Ukraine mean more saved lives," Shmyhal emphasized.
