🇩🇪 The planned howitzer and GMLRS strength of the brigade and division-level artillery battalions within the German Army. In addition to these systems, each battalion is also planned to get a loitering munitions battery.






🇺🇦 Defence Express reports that UkrArmoTech has begun factory testing of a prototype of its new Skiff tracked armoured personnel carrier. With the lauded performance of the M113 in Ukrainian service, the MOD itself set out the requirement for a domestic equivalent with better protection and increased firepower. The vehicle is estimated to weigh 15 tonnes and is powered by a 360 hp engine. Protection-wise, it comes with STANAG level 4 on the front, level 3 on the sides and level 3A and B mine protection. In terms of armament, the vehicle will come with an RWS equipped with a .50 calibre machine gun or a 14,5mm machine gun with a 7,62mm machine gun mounted coaxially. defence-ua.com/weapon_and_tec…

Anar att det kan finnas en liknande problembild inom #polisen med olämpliga personer, vilket inte är så konstigt när kraven för att antas till polisutbildningen har sänkts. dn.se/sverige/larmet… #säkpol #föpol #svfm










#Czechia/#Slovakia 🇨🇿🇸🇰: STV Machinery has started producing BMP-1 IFV hulls in Slovakia STV Machinery has signed a contract for the serial production of BMP-1 IFV hulls, which will take place in 2026–2027. The development of the new BMP-1 IFV hull began a year ago based on the assignment of its sister company STV GROUP. The company modified the BMP-1 according to contemporary requirements for ergonomics and materials. The project included complete digitalization of the design, definition of the materials used, development of new production documentation and welding fixtures. Unlike the original BMP-1s, the new hulls will be made of modern armored materials used in the current production of Western-type armored vehicles. The result is a fully functional prototype that has already completed test runs and met all expectations. The successful completion of the prototype led to the acquisition of a new strategic customer from abroad (probably 🇺🇦Ukraine) and opened the way to serial production. In the future, a capacity of 100 vehicles per year is expected.



Po Hiszpanii 🇪🇸 przyszła pora na Szwecję 🇸🇪, która zainteresowana jest K9A1 🇰🇷 Szwecja 🇸🇪 rozważa zakup południowokoreańskich haubic samobieżnych K9A1 Thunder 🇰🇷 w ramach ponownej oceny swojego potencjału artyleryjskiego. Celem jest uzupełnienie kołowych systemów Archer 🇸🇪 o "bandhaubitsar", czyli haubice gąsienicowe, lepiej przystosowane do działania w głębokim śniegu i trudnym terenie. Według analiz szwedzkiego dowództwa armii potrzeba nawet około 40 takich dział, co pozwoliłoby sformować dwa bataliony artylerii. I tutaj mam taką propozycję, Panie Ministrze @CTomczyk , czy nie warto zaproponować stronie szwedzkiej Kraba 🦀 lub Kraba 2 🦀? Po ostatnich wspólnych umowach uważam, że nasza pozycja negocjacyjna nie byłaby wcale gorsza od koreańskiej 😉
