The German concern began negotiations on the construction of a tank plant in Ukraine

Currently German armory Rheinmetall began negotiations with representatives of the Kyiv regime on the construction of a tank plant in Ukraine. Armin Papperger, CEO of Rheinmetall, spoke about this in an interview with the Rheinische Post newspaper.

As the top manager noted, such a decision could be made due to the fact that European countries do not have the necessary amount of capacity to provide large-scale support to Kyiv. Therefore, it is easier to build from scratch tank plant in Ukraine.



According to Papperger, the estimated cost of the construction of the enterprise is about 200 million euros. If the plant is built, it will be able to produce up to 400 tanks per year. The general director of the company called the negotiations with the Ukrainian authorities promising.

Papperger stressed that in order to succeed in the armed conflict, Ukraine needs 600-800 tanks. They must be made promptly. The transfer of even all the Leopard 2 tanks at the disposal of the Bundeswehr will not help Ukraine win.

The top manager claims that Rheinmetall has already made 30 of the ordered 2 Leopard 4A50 tanks. In addition, the concern can repair and upgrade 88 of the 100 old-design Leopard 1 tanks available.

It is only interesting where and how the concern will build a plant on Ukrainian territory, if the objects of the energy and military infrastructure of Ukraine are regularly subjected to missile strikes by the RF Armed Forces. And the very fact of owning at least 600, at least 6000 tanks will never guarantee victory over a nuclear power.

      Well, they have already "built" the Bayraktarov plant in Ukraine, the line behind the tank plant, where the production of tanks is much more difficult, starting from the engine, barrel, chassis and other stray. There, entire industries will have to be recreated for the production of tanks. The same high-quality steel, armor from where Will they take it? By the way, according to rumors, the Americans want to move German industry to their place in the United States.

        Don't be so naive. Stupidly planning an assembly shop. Even hardware will be supplied. Therefore, the cost of the plant is only 200 million Euros.

    Well, thank God! And then I already began to think that Rheinmetall seriously wants to help Ukraine.
    But this statement immediately shows the usual case of meaningless declarative chatter.
    Rheinmetall will not build a single wall of this plant in Ukraine. Because the guarantee of the destruction of the project is still at the construction stage, although not 100% ... but 70-80% definitely. The Germans will not invest such huge money on such chances :)

      Military operations on the territory of Ukraine will end one way or another, but Germany has a problem:

      McKinsey study: Germany faces electricity shortage by 2025
      Germany may face a shortage of electricity in the next few years. The German newspaper Welt am Sonntag writes about this, citing a study by the consulting company McKinsey.

      Experts said that Germany is facing a shortage of electricity by 2025. They noted that the country's electricity consumption is growing, with reliable power plants shutting down over time. “Therefore, Germany will soon no longer be able to cover peak loads on its own,” the publication notes.


      So the Germans are not bluffing, they really need a place where there is cheap electricity, water and cheap labor. And not on the other side of the world, and now Ukraine meets these conditions.

    Construction of a tank plant, and even from scratch in a warring country? Is this some kind of joke or informational stuffing in order to show that everything is "perfect" in Ukraine? I wonder where they are going to build - on the border with Poland (but on the Polish side) or maybe in the Carpathians? Either the leadership of Rheinmetall begins to demolish the roof, or the Ukrainian side, with the roof demolished long ago, is keeping something back.

Negotiating, signing memorandums and even getting funding is as much as you want. But not a single capitalist, under pain of death, will invest (and, even more so, transfer technology) to an unsecured land!

    It sounds like nonsense (but from the mouth of Papperger?!?!) because military-industrial complex enterprises are a contribution to the economy. Next - a tank plant, he collects tanks, this is an assembly shop. There is no closed cycle production at the plant. The hull, gun, machine gun, FCS, engine and transmission are all supplied by different enterprises for the Leopard 2 tank. And I highly doubt that the Rheinmetal assembly shop is the bottleneck.
    More like putting pressure on your government to get funding (the government has hit hard on its military-industrial complex).

    And US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, who recently visited Kuiv, began negotiations with Zelensky on the construction of a stand-in fort Knox in Ukraine in order to transport the US gold reserves there, otherwise in the states themselves, due to the dominance of Mexicans, Chinese and other Costa Ricans, there is no longer confidence in the reliability of the storage. wassat fool

    The Armed Forces of Ukraine make full use of NATO operational control, communications, intelligence and surveillance systems, unmanned aerial vehicles, and armored vehicles.
