Canada will supply Ukraine sniper rifles

33
Kiev and Ottawa signed a contract for the supply of the Ukrainian army sniper rifles, reports Ukrainian military portal.





According to the Canadian parliament deputy from the Conservative Party, James Bezan, between Canada and Ukraine there is already one signed agreement for the supply of the APU to the party of sniper rifles.

He noted that currently one of the Canadian defense companies is awaiting from the government a document authorizing the export of this weapons.

"The rifles will increase the capabilities of the Ukrainian armed forces in deterring Russian aggression," the deputy added.

He explained that this is not gratuitous assistance, but a commercial delivery. Soon the government will sign an export permit, after which the weapon will be delivered to Ukraine.

At the same time, Besan made it clear that the possibility of concluding several more contracts is being considered.

I know that in Canada there are other enterprises that produce machine guns, light armored vehicles, etc., which are now exploring the potential for cooperation with Ukrainian companies and the Ukrainian army in order to better provide Ukrainian military personnel,
he said.

The resource reminds that last year the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine adopted the McMillan TAC-50 sniper rifles, produced by the American McMillan Brothers Rifle Company and in service with the Canadian Armed Forces.

It is from this rifle that a Canadian special forces sniper in Iraq set a world record in range, hitting a target from a distance of 3,54 km, concludes the publication.

    Canadian deputy: ... "Rifles will increase the capabilities of the Ukrainian armed forces in deterring Russian aggression" ... What is it, the Russian army will drop tanks, artillery, aircraft and simply run away as soon as it sees the rifle in the hands of the Natsik.

            In our region, in Krksnoyarsk, not so long ago, while a man came out of a hunting lodge a Russian bear came to visit and broke two guns, he took one with him to the forest. Now the bear is armed and dangerous. Not simple at us bears go.

          Countless hordes of Red Army soldiers have invaded Ukraine for a long time, landing troops from water and air. But a thousandfold superiority in numbers does not stop the fearless cyborgoid!

    Somehow Canadians there completely lose their framework without restless neighbors and internal acute conflicts ..

      I will surprise you. There is no struggle. This is a figment of the imagination of journalists. There is a struggle for additional subsidies from the center and that’s it. And since the French-speaking regions are underdeveloped economically, this is critically important for lovers of amphibian legs. And as soon as officials want to raise salaries (of their own), a "independence woman" is issued. French like to take part and do nothing else to them, just give free rein. They also love Muslims and "nonsense" .... So there is such independence .. So where exactly are you going to be supported and in what place?

    States became impudent, climbed to Ukraine, to our border, this is "democracy" ... I wonder how, for the US, there was a "Maidan" in Mexico or Canada, organized by Russian special services, to everything, openly, someone from Russia close to post Victoria Nuland, also went there, "cookies" handed out.

      Ukraine produces Fort-301 sniper rifles, which are in service with the Security Service of Ukraine, the State Security Directorate, the State Border Service, the Foreign Intelligence Service of Ukraine, and the National Guard of Ukraine.
      Apparently, Canada will supply rifles for free ....

        You have not read the article? It also says that they will put rifles for money:
        He explained that this is not gratuitous assistance, but a commercial delivery. Soon the government will sign an export permit, after which the weapon will be delivered to Ukraine.

        A disgrace. They cannot even make small arms, and everyone thinks they are "languid," launching satellites into space and building planes.

    You, colleagues, you read, and I want to go back to the forest, though I had previously stocked up on food, since at the same time we found on the trip where you can hide and where to organize a partisan base to repel the inevitable offensive of the ukrovermacht armed with maple wunderwaffes!
