The Ukrainian Armed Forces used Bushmaster armored vehicles, which were given to us by Australia, during a counterattack in the Kharkiv region.

Here's What We Know

Video of one of the transferred vehicles was published by the Minister of Defense of Ukraine. The vehicle was spotted near the town of Izyum. The Bushmaster on the video boasts an EOS R400-Mk2 combat module with remote control. It is equipped with the American automatic grenade launcher Mk. 19 Mod 3, which can fire up to 390 rounds per minute.
