Rheinmetall has disclosed the scale of its military deliveries to Ukraine, including armored vehicles, ammunition, air-defense systems and support equipment. The German defense group also released footage showing trainloads of armored vehicles being transported.

A major share of the supplies consists of ammunition. A new Rheinmetall plant built in Germany has become a key source of modern medium- and large-caliber rounds for the Ukrainian Armed Forces. The facility has already produced a five-digit number of 155mm artillery shells for Ukraine.

The company has also supplied hundreds of thousands of 35mm rounds for Gepard self-propelled anti-aircraft guns, along with 120mm tank ammunition, mortar rounds and shells for the Skynex and Skyranger systems. Deliveries of small-arms ammunition have reached several million rounds.

Armored vehicles make up another significant part of the shipments. Equipment has been transferred both directly and through exchange programs involving Greece, Slovakia and the Czech Republic. Ukraine has already received a three-digit number of Marder 1A3 infantry fighting vehicles, several modern Lynx IFVs and a large number of Leopard 1A5 and Leopard 2A4 tanks in multiple batches, Voennoye Obozreniye reports.

Rheinmetall has also continued supplying air-defense equipment. According to the company, Gepard self-propelled anti-aircraft guns, which have been in use since the summer of 2022, have proved highly effective and relatively economical in countering drones and protecting critical infrastructure.

The newer Skynex system has been used for similar missions. Rheinmetall says the system has intercepted complex aerial targets, including Kh-101 cruise missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles.

Ukraine has also received the highly mobile Skyranger 35 anti-aircraft system mounted on a Leopard 1 chassis. It is designed to engage targets at short and very short ranges. Both Skyranger 35 and Skynex use programmable 35mm AHEAD airburst ammunition. The rounds detonate at a calculated point and create a cloud of submunitions intended to hit even small airborne targets.

The air-defense network has also been reinforced with mobile automated SurveilSPIRE counter-drone systems. Each system includes mobile surveillance towers equipped with day and night cameras, autonomous mini-drones and a control system. More than 10 SurveilSPIRE systems have already been delivered.

Rheinmetall has also supplied several hundred trucks, including vehicles from the HX family. In addition, Ukraine has received 20 Caracal 4×4 all-terrain vehicles, which are used by airborne units and special operations forces.

At the same time, the company is expanding maintenance and repair support for the equipment already delivered. Since June 2024, a joint venture in western Ukraine has been repairing and servicing tanks and infantry fighting vehicles. Similar work is expected to be carried out at additional facilities in Ukraine in the future.

Repair infrastructure has also been established in neighboring countries. A maintenance and repair center is operating in Lithuania.

Rheinmetall is also supplying field hospitals, which have been deployed across Ukraine. By the end of 2026, the company plans to deliver a total of 10 medical evacuation points.
