The Ministry of Defense of Ukraine has signed a contract with the Rheinmetall group for the supply of propelling charges for 155 mm caliber artillery shells.

'Thanks to large-scale supplies and support services for Ukraine, Rheinmetall is becoming the most important partner of the country in the defense industry in the fight against Russian aggression. During the 'Ukraine Recovery Conference 2024' in Berlin, the company and Ukraine signed a memorandum of understanding to expand strategic cooperation.
