Germany Delivers First RCH 155 Howitzer to Ukraine

News summary

Germany has officially delivered the first RCH 155 wheeled howitzer to Ukraine, marking a significant enhancement to Ukrainian artillery capabilities. German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius emphasized Germany's commitment to support Ukraine, stating, 'Ukraine can count on us, and this is a signal.' The handover took place in Kassel, with Ukrainian Ambassador Oleksii Makeiev receiving the howitzer and insisting on the need for allies rather than mediators in the ongoing conflict. A total of 54 RCH 155 units are promised, with the first six remaining in Germany for training purposes. This advanced howitzer is notable for its ability to fire while moving and can be operated remotely, requiring only two crew members. The delivery underscores Germany's active role in bolstering Ukraine's defense amid ongoing tensions in the region.
