The Netherlands transferred 155 mm self-propelled howitzers DITA to Ukraine.
The National Guard of Ukraine received 155 mm self-propelled artillery systems DITA from the Netherlands. According to the commander of the guard, these systems have a high level of automation and can fire at a distance of up to 40 km. They can strike at enemy infantry and mines, as well as conduct counter-battery warfare. Thanks to automated management and loading processes, only two servicemen can operate the system. In addition, DITA can fire up to 5 times per minute, significantly enhancing the firepower and effectiveness of the guard in battles with the enemy.
It should be noted that the Netherlands also transferred reconnaissance drones from DeltaQuad to Ukraine worth over €42 million. Additionally, the Ukrainian army received fighter jets F-16 from the Netherlands as part of international aviation support.
