German tank repair center is inaugurated by Rheinmetall in Ukraine.

A support facility was recently established by the German-Ukrainian joint venture Rheinmetall Ukrainian Defense Industry in October. This news was greeted enthusiastically by Ukrainian Minister for Strategic Industries, Oleksandr Kamyschin, who considered it not only a step toward Ukraine's victory but also a significant landmark in the development of the Free World's arsenal.

Armin Papperger, the CEO of Rheinmetall, expressed his feeling that providing effective and dependable aid to Ukraine was a cause dear to their hearts. They prioritize fast delivery and availability of spare parts above all else.

Ukraine has already received 100 Marder tanks from Germany. Moreover, Leopard 1 and Leopard 2 tanks are either already available or have been promised. It's said that other German weapons systems might be fixed at different Ukrainian locations.
