Estonia delivered two patrol boats to Ukraine in cooperation with Denmark.

The Estonian Ministry of Defense reported about this on Friday, April 26 on its social media.

The boats were provided as international military aid. They will help Ukraine protect its sea lanes and inland waters.

The Defense Ministry’s post on the social network X about helping Ukraine included a photo of a patrol boat currently operated by the Estonian Navy.

However, there is currently no information on the type of boats that Ukraine received. The role of Denmark in this delivery is also unknown.

On March 21, at a meeting with his Ukrainian counterpart Rustem Umierov, Estonian Minister of Defence Hanno Pevkur announced that Estonia would send the next package of military aid worth €20 million to Ukraine.

“The package includes recoilless anti-tank guns, explosives, various types of artillery ammunition, gas masks, sniper equipment, smaller caliber ammunition, and more. We put this package together focussing on providing the maximum benefit to Ukraine while making sure not to diminish Estonian defense readiness,” Minister of Defense Hanno Pevkur shared.

This was the second tranche of military aid from Estonia this year.

The type of recoilless guns is also not named. However, as early as 2022, Estonia transferred a certain number of Swedish-made 90-mm Pansarvärnspjäs 1110 guns (PV-1110) from its stockpiles.

Previously, on February 3, Estonia handed over to Ukraine a new military aid package that included anti-tank missiles of the Javelin system, machine guns, small arms ammunition, ground and amphibious vehicles, as well as diving equipment.

“Also in the next four years, Estonia plans to provide military support to Ukraine in the amount of 0.25% of its GDP,” said Prime Minister Kaja Kallas in January.

It should be added that in April 2022, the Baltic Workboats shipyard in Estonia began building a patrol vessel ordered by Ukraine that will operate in the Black Sea. A year later, the new vessel was supposed to be delivered to the port of Odesa, but there were no official reports on this matter.
