RT @deaidua: Quick info: German media are currently reporting that Germany allegedly wants to procure six more IRIS-T SLM fire units for #Ukraine and another six for the Bundeswehr.
At least the tagesschau claims that the source for this is a Reuters report. I've checked this as it makes me wonder, and I cannot find any Reuters report claiming this. Neither on their X timeline nor via the search function on their website using the keywords “IRIS-T”, “Germany” and “Ukraine”. I also checked via the Twitter search function to see if someone had linked an article, nothing.
I therefore cannot confirm the reports at this point in time. According to current information from the German government, Germany already contracted eight additional IRIS-T SLM fire units to Ukraine (two of which will be delivered this year), bringing the total number of supplied fire...

RT @deaidua: Given yesterdays (false) reports by Reuters regarding IRIS-T SLM and the cruel Russian attacks on Ukrainian civilians, I decided to write a more detailed tweet about the German donations of IRIS-T SLM/SLS, including a timeline of the deliveries to #Ukraine. TLDR at the end.
Germany is supplying two different air defence assets produced by Diehl Defence to Ukraine — the IRIS-T SLM air defence system and IRIS-T SLS launcher.
The IRIS-T SLM system is a complete fire unit consisting of a minimum of three launchers (up to eight possible), a TRML-4D air surveillance radar, a TOC and several support vehicles. Such a fire unit can operate individually. The IRIS-T SLS launchers that Germany supplies to Ukraine are pure launchers which carry and launch the missiles, without radar or the like. In Ukraine, they are integrated into the SLM fire units....

RT @deaidua: Germany is punishing the Swiss defence industry for blocking deliveries of Swiss-made arms to #Ukraine!
German authorities have informed the Swiss Federal Office for Defence Procurement in a letter that the German Bundeswehr would refrain from procuring certain Swiss armaments in future.
For example, Switzerland prevented the delivery of around 12,000 rounds of ammunition for the Gepard SPAAGs, which are a critical air defence asset in Ukraine.

RT @deaidua: (PLEASE READ THE FULL TWEET AS IT PROVIDES NECESSARY CONTEXT)
Germany's Minister of Defence Boris Pistorius just pledged 12 additional PzH 2000s to #Ukraine worth €150 million, six of which are to be delivered this year. The remaining six will follow in
According to Tagesschau, these will come in addition to the 18 PzH 2000 already pledged since February 2024. Interestingly, just like the now pledged PzH 2000s, the ones pledged in February are being delivered via industry stocks. Still, the ones pledged now are being delivered this and next year, while the ones pledged seven months ago are being delivered in 2026 and
Already three weeks ago, the German MoD announced to deliver 12(!) PzH 2000 until the end of 2024. Now it's supposed to be the same amount but a new pledge, and they halved the amount to be delivered until the end of the yea...

The delivery schedule should now look like this. ⬇️

Dannenberg calls it one of the most important final decisions this administration could make, impacting the outcome of Russia’s war against #Ukraine.

RT @Dr_M_Davis: More on possible outcome of discussions about removing (or not really removing) US imposed constraints on #Ukraine's ability to employ US supplied long-range weapons (and weapons supplied by western European partners) against targets inside Russia.
If this report is accurate, that's a real setback for Kyiv and will only encourage #Putin to escalate and prolong his aggression against Ukraine. It also sends a signal of weakness from the US that will be picked up not only in Moscow, but also in Beijing, Pyongyang and Tehran. https://twitter.com/ColbyBadhwar/status/1834287492247191940#m

The US committed $250 million but has $5.9 billion in authorities that lapse September
Why does this @WhiteHouse not want Ukraine to win?

RT @deaidua: According to BILD, the 12 PzH 2000 recently pledged to #Ukraine are available thanks to a deal between Germany and Qatar. Germany has apparently authorised the export of RCH 155 howitzers to Qatar, which in return will hand over 12 of its 24 PzH 2000 to the German industry, from where they will be refurbished and delivered to Ukraine.
Thanks to the German MoD we already know that they are paying about €150 million for the delivery of these 12 PzH 2000 while the total export volume to Qatar in the first half of 2024 was about €100 million, of which “just” the majority was this RCH 155 for PzH 2000 deal. So now you can guess how much money the German industry gets via this deal.

RT @EL4UKR_Harley: Notice our tractor we bought all them months ago to help with demining?
The hard work of our Kherson Apostles sapper team never stops. His face says it all.
I don't think there is another team or multi million pound organisation in Ukraine that has removed as many mines from Ukrainian land as ours, not even close or half of our numbers.
Support has been down this year, probably due to me breaking my ankle, but I'm determined to keep fighting for it.. what's been performed with only basic tools and a shoestring budget is nothing short of a miracle.
Keep supporting EOD 🫡
