Armed Forces of Ukraine received thousands of 122-mm artillery rounds

Ukrainian Armor, in cooperation with a European ammunition manufacturer, has delivered a batch of 122-mm artillery rounds to Ukrainian Defense Forces.

The company announced this on its Facebook page.

This batch consists of thousands of high-explosive rounds.

The company emphasized that they have been working together to increase the supply of 122-mm artillery rounds for the Ukrainian army.

“Today, a batch of 122-mm high explosive rounds produced in partnership with one of the Eastern European ammunition holdings has been delivered to Ukraine,” said Vladyslav Belbas, CEO of Ukrainian Armor LLC.

He also added that rounds of this caliber were essential for the Ukrainian army. They are used daily by Ukrainian artillery to fire D-30 towed howitzers and 2S1 Gvozdika self-propelled howitzers.

According to Belbas, the company has managed to establish systematic serial production and significantly increase the production of 122-mm artillery rounds.

As previously reported, Ukrainian Armor handed over the first thousand 122-mm high-explosive rounds with a full charge to the Ukrainian military in August last year.

At the same time, the company continues to produce and develop new models of armored vehicles and weapons.

In January of this year, Vladyslav Belbas said that Ukrainian Armor has been producing about 100 mortars of various calibers every month.

Also, as of January, the company has a rate of production of mortar rounds at the level of about 20,000 per month.

In total, the company reached a production rate of 1,200 mortars and 240,000 mortar mines per year. It can’t be ruled out that these rates will grow in 2024.
