Stryker armored vehicles delivered by the United States to Kiev from Germany will go directly into battle. This was reported on March 4 by the Ukrainian edition of Strana.ua.
It has already become clear that a total of 90 armored vehicles have been sent to Germany. Wrote about it Lenta.ru.
It turned out that the declared characteristics of the Stryker are superior to those of conventional armored personnel carriers and, in fact, slightly inferior to tanks. Stryker is able to overcome a vertical obstacle 0.6 meters high, a two-meter ditch and develop a speed of 97 kilometers per hour. The armored vehicle is armed with machine guns and an automatic grenade launcher.
Earlier it became known that for the second time in a week the commander of the ground forces of Ukraine, General Alexander Syrsky, visited Artemivsk. This testifies to the precarious situation of the Ukrainian army.
