This time, Ukraine received eight Bandvagn BV206 all-terrain vehicles, two MAN HX81 tank tractors, 16 patrol cars, 14 Vector drones, three drone detection systems and two thousand ammunition for Gepard anti-aircraft guns.

The Swedish-made Bandvagn BV206 two-track all-terrain vehicles have good cross-country ability and are equipped with a ring mount for one 7.62 mm or 12.7 mm machine gun. They were designed to work in Arctic, desert or jungle conditions. The all-terrain vehicle is capable of transporting the driver and 11 fighters in full equipment. In addition, it protects against fire from small arms and small fragments of artillery shells.
