From the beginning of the year, the Ministry of Defense allowed 60 models of vehicles to be used in the Ukrainian army.

This was reported by the press service of the defense ministry.

In total, more than 110 models of automotive equipment have been released to service in the Armed Forces of Ukraine since the beginning of the Russian full-scale invasion.

New vehicles provide increased mobility and combat capability of the Ukrainian military.

“Since March 2022, since the beginning of the full-scale war of the Russian Federation against Ukraine, more than 110 models of automotive equipment of Ukrainian and foreign production have been released to service in the Armed Forces of Ukraine. In particular, 60 of them have been taken into service over the past five months,” the Ministry of Defense said.

The ministry noted that the line of vehicles was quite different and included armored vehicles, SUVs, trucks, motorcycles and special vehicles.

In the fleet of the Armed Forces of Ukraine there are production equipment of more than 20 countries, including the USA, Germany, Sweden, Great Britain, Italy, etc.

“Officially, popular models of SUVs manufactured by Japanese and European automakers, as well as the world’s largest American tractor-transporter for off-road transportation of tanks, self-propelled artillery installations and other heavy armored vehicles,” the Ministry of Defense said.

In addition to armored and heavy equipment, the Ukrainian military received ATVs, hexacycles and buggies.

More than a third of 110 codified models of automotive equipment are Ukrainian development and production. These are, in particular, special vehicles, armored cars, trucks, all-terrain vehicles and domestic electric motorcycles.

Codification and admission of a sample of weapons and military equipment of Ukrainian production for operating allows the purchase of it at the expense of the state budget.

Also, since the beginning of 2024, the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine has accepted more than 40 drone models and more than 20 ground robotic systems to operate in the Armed Forces.
