Germany plans to provide Ukraine with more than 100 million euros for the development and production of An-196 attack drones, which will be able to fly over a distance of more than 2,000 kilometers.
This is reported by Der Spiegel, citing its own sources.
According to them, the German government is ready to finance the production of these Ukrainian combat drones to the tune of several hundred million euros. The main goal is to support the creation of the An-196 strike drones.
These drones are designed for deep strikes and are equipped with a warhead that allows them to operate effectively at long distances — over 2,000 km. With funding from Germany, Ukraine will be able to produce several hundred of these strike drones.
Sources also note that the European Union is trying to integrate Ukraine into the defense industry, using its unique experience of the war with Russia. Particular attention is paid to the development of the drone industry. If other countries increase investments in the Ukrainian defense industry, this will be a significant support for Ukraine, which will help strengthen its defense capabilities.
Recall that Sweden will finance the production of Ukrainian long-range drones based on the “Danish model.”
As reported, the Main Intelligence Directorate of Ukraine showed which drones the Ukrainian military uses to attack military facilities on the territory of the Russian Federation that are located at long distances.
