Ukraine to receive RBS 70 NG laser-guided air defense systems from Australia - media.
Australia is preparing to transfer a batch of RBS 70 NG man-portable air defense missile systems to Ukraine. They are capable of destroying enemy targets at a distance of up to 9,000 meters and have an advanced guidance system.
This was reported by Censor.NET with reference to Defence Industry Europe.
As noted, during a recent visit to Ukraine, Australian Defense Minister Richard Marles confirmed that Australia would provide Ukraine with a new defense aid package worth $100 million.
This package includes the transfer of short-range RBS 70 NG anti-aircraft missile systems from the Australian army to Ukraine worth about $50 million.
"Details on the number of RBS 70 NG launchers and ammunition to be supplied, as well as whether additional elements such as Swedish Saab's Giraffe AMB air defense radars will be provided, have not yet been disclosed," the publication notes.
