Germany has provided another tranche of military aid to Ukraine, which includes armored vehicles for various purposes and ammunition.

The list is published on the German government’s website.

As part of the new tranche, the German government handed over 4 WISENT 1 mine clearing tanks and 4 border protection vehicles to Ukraine.

The package also consists of other demining equipment, including 250 tool kits with blasting material, material for explosive ordnance disposal, and three mobile, remote controlled and protected mine clearing systems.

In addition, the new package contains 147 night vision devices, 10 Vector reconnaissance drones with spare parts, 12 SatCom terminals, and 22 anti-drone sensors and jammers.

The assistance also encompasses 14,000 rounds of 155 mm ammunition.

Wisent 1

The Wisent 1 is a tracked armored platform based on the Leopard 1 main battle tank and designed for demining.

Its main task is to create passages in the minefield. It automatically marks the mined area so that infantrymen and other equipment can pass through it.

The Wisent 1 MC features a mine plow with a width of 3.5 meters, a lane marking system, an auxiliary winch, and a crane with a lifting capacity of 30 tons.

Vector

The Vector drone is an unmanned aerial vehicle with vertical takeoff and landing and an HD-40LV optical-location station with a laser rangefinder.

This type of UAV provides real-time aerial reconnaissance data in an efficient and user-friendly form thanks to built-in artificial intelligence, and the system also frees the operator from constant video monitoring.

Built-in algorithms automatically identify objects and immediately transmit key intelligence information to the ground.

Encrypted IP communication sends video streams up to 15+ km away. Flight time is up to 120 minutes. All this is combined into a compact and reliable electric UAV with vertical takeoff and landing.

As previously reported, Germany allocated a new military aid package for Ukraine worth €1.1 billion, which includes howitzers, anti-aircraft systems, and ammunition.
