Media: Media: Ukraine may receive 200 TPz 1 Fuchs amphibious armored personnel carriers from Germany
The largest opposition bloc CDU/CSU and the Green Party demand from the German government to transfer TPz 1 Fuchs armored vehicles to Ukraine as soon as possible.
What we know
The German edition Der Spiegel writes about it. We are talking about 200 machines.
"It is a quick delivery of reliable material for the Ukrainian army, which can be used immediately on the front line. Such weapons in service with the Bundeswehr should be withdrawn from use," the statement said.
Whether the delivery of the armored personnel carriers will be approved is not yet known. The fact is that although the German Army has 825 of these APCs, they are all supplied in different modifications, from radar carriers to medical vehicles.
In case you didn't know
TPz 1 Fuchs is a German wheeled amphibious armored personnel carrier. It was adopted by the Bundeswehr in 1979 and together with the American M113 is the main transportation vehicle of infantry on the battlefield. Several modifications of different purposes were created on its basis. Since 2009 the Bundeswehr has been replacing them with the GTK Boxer and the RS PARA RASIT with the RASIT radar.
