Further evidence that the delivery of Taurus KEPD-350 cruise missiles to Ukraine remains necessary, even in light of Ukraine’s outstanding domestic developments. Since March 2026, the AFU used Storm Shadow/SCALP-EG cruise missiles at least four times against high-value targets. 7th of March 2026 US-supplied ATACMS and French-supplied SCALP-EG were used to heavily damage and destroy a site near the Donetsk Airport which was used by Russia for the storage, preparation, and launch of Shaheds and similar UAVs. 10th of March 2026 British-supplied Storm Shadow were used to strike and severely damage the Kremniy El microelectronics factory in Bryansk. The factory specializes in discrete semiconductor devices and integrated microchips, which are critical parts of various Russian weapon systems like Iskander missiles. 13th of April 2026 to 14th of April 2026 French-supplied SCALP-EG and US-supplied GBU-39 were used to strike and damage OWA UAV storage facilities near the Donetsk Airport. 25th of May 2026 Today, British-supplied Storm Shadows were used to destroy an important enemy command-and-control and communications post in the temporarily occupied territory of Luhansk region. Each of these targets could also have been damaged or destroyed using Taurus KEPD-350. Indeed, the relevance of a delivery of 50 to 100 pieces from Bundeswehr stocks has declined in recent years. However, as we can see, there are still plenty of operational scenarios in which the Taurus can and should be deployed. Since stocks of SCALP-EG and Storm Shadow are not infinite either, a delivery – as promised on several occasions by the German Chancellor – remains absolutely essential. And yes, the German government has invested several hundred million euros in various Ukrainian weapons systems, thereby funding not only the production of those systems but also their further development. These include the An-196 Liutyi, which Ukraine has been successfully deploying for quite some time against targets deep within Russian territory. It’s not as if we do nothing to make such attacks possible. We do a lot. But we could and must do more.

Germany is going to do additional investments into Ukraine's air defence. $200 million will be invested in another PURL package to finance mainly ammunition for air defence systems. Another €200 million will be invested in the JUMPSTART programme to finance PAC-3 missiles for Ukraine. This was announced today by Germany's Minister of Defence Boris Pistorius at the NATO Defence Ministers Meeting in Brussels.

I already reported this 5 hours ago — now it's official. At the government press conference, Deputy Spokesman Wolfgang Büchner announced that most of the “new” €650 package is part of the €1.4 billion package announced in October (which itself also was already largely known). I am currently working on an article that I will publish on my blog. There will be plenty of additional details mentioned there.

These three videos show two Russian UAVs —presumably Shaheds — being shot down by German/US-supplied Cheetah SPAAGs, and a Ukrainian soldier marking the 10th interception of a Shahed loitering munition on the turret of his Cheetah SPAAG. So far, Germany has officially delivered 52 Gepard SPAAGs as well as 8 Cheetah SPAAGs to Ukraine, with 7 Cheetah SPAAGs officially still scheduled to be delivered in the future (although deliveries should be completed by now). I found the videos on a small Ukrainian TikTok account, so I blurred the soldier's face and removed the handle added by TikTok to protect both the soldier's identity and the original source.

A brief update on Skynex in #Ukraine: According to information provided by Rheinmetall CEO Papperger during today's Q3 conference call, the Skynex air defence systems supplied by Germany have now also proven themselves in the fight against Russian missiles. However, we have not yet seen any visual confirmation or received more details on the matter (I don't mean to imply that he is lying) – video footage and details of Skynex air defence systems in Ukrainian service are very rarely released and so far only shows the interception of Russian loitering munitions. Officially, Germany has so far delivered two Skynex systems to Ukraine and promised two more. Unofficially, at least one, if not both, of the promised systems should already be in service in Ukraine, as both were to be delivered by the end of 2025.

The Kursk Force Grouping (commanded by the 8th Air Assault Corps) has just shared a video of their forces deploying several different systems, including a German-delivered HX-2 loitering munition to destroy a Russian 2S7 Pion howitzer inside Russia. The howitzer has reportedly recently intensified strikes on the city of Sumy and the surrounding region from Russian territory (~48 kilometres away). Apparently, it was so deep covered inside a Russian forest and well protected by not only natural barriers, that multiple bomber drones as well as HX-2 and Hornet loitering munitions were not enough to destroy the artillery piece, so they also had to strike the site several times with an M142 HIMARS MLRS. Regarding the HX-2, the German government has contracted Helsing to manufacture and deliver several thousand of these loitering munition to Ukraine, while unknown to many, Germany has also been invested in the delivery of M142 HIMARS MLRS and munitions for these systems. Germany has financed the delivery of three M142 HIMARS MLRS from US stocks with a double-digit million dollar sum in mid-2024, while new ammunition deliveries are regularly funded through NATO's PURL mechanism.

The Russian military managed to destroy another decoy of an IRIS-T SLM launcher somewhere “deep behind enemy lines” in #Ukraine. There are various indicators proving that this is only a decoy. Just to mention two: 1) After the strike — which is not even shown as it would be another proof of this being a decoy — you can clearly see that the cabin is made of some metal frame and plywood. 2) Also very visible after the strike is a tow hook at the very front which is used to tow the decoy into place (hence the truck shown at 00:20). PS: Even if it would be a real launcher, it's not worth $50 million like claimed by the Russian propaganda machine. H/t PJ "giK"

Judging by a video released two days ago, German-delivered MK 556 assault rifles seem to have entered service with the popular 3rd Assault Brigade. A bit of history about the German deliveries. Originally limited to 5,000 pieces, the MK 556 assault rifles supplied by Germany were initially exclusively handed out to various Ukrainian SOF units. Later, they were also handed over to the 82nd Air Assault Brigade, 95th Air Assault Brigade and then 58th Motorised Brigade. After the delivery of the initially promised 5,000 units was completed in March 2025, 800 additional assault rifles were surprisingly delivered in April 2025. Only one month later, MK 556 assault rifles were also spotted to be used by the 425th Assault Regiment. Since the MK 556 assault rifles are now also being used by the 3rd Assault Brigade, it is likely (although of course not proven) that deliveries have continued since the German government has largely stopped publishing details about newly delivered or pledged assistance in April 2024.

Further evidence that the delivery of Taurus KEPD-350 cruise missiles to Ukraine remains necessary, even in light of Ukraine’s outstanding domestic developments. Since March 2026, the AFU used Storm Shadow/SCALP-EG cruise missiles at least four times against high-value targets. 7th of March 2026 US-supplied ATACMS and French-supplied SCALP-EG were used to heavily damage and destroy a site near the Donetsk Airport which was used by Russia for the storage, preparation, and launch of Shaheds and similar UAVs. 10th of March 2026 British-supplied Storm Shadow were used to strike and severely damage the Kremniy El microelectronics factory in Bryansk. The factory specializes in discrete semiconductor devices and integrated microchips, which are critical parts of various Russian weapon systems like Iskander missiles. 13th of April 2026 to 14th of April 2026 French-supplied SCALP-EG and US-supplied GBU-39 were used to strike and damage OWA UAV storage facilities near the Donetsk Airport. 25th of May 2026 Today, British-supplied Storm Shadows were used to destroy an important enemy command-and-control and communications post in the temporarily occupied territory of Luhansk region. Each of these targets could also have been damaged or destroyed using Taurus KEPD-350. Indeed, the relevance of a delivery of 50 to 100 pieces from Bundeswehr stocks has declined in recent years. However, as we can see, there are still plenty of operational scenarios in which the Taurus can and should be deployed. Since stocks of SCALP-EG and Storm Shadow are not infinite either, a delivery – as promised on several occasions by the German Chancellor – remains absolutely essential. And yes, the German government has invested several hundred million euros in various Ukrainian weapons systems, thereby funding not only the production of those systems but also their further development.

I recently noticed a small Ukrainian TikTok account that shared this video of a German-supplied Gepard SPAAG in mid-May 2025. What stands out is that this one is apparently driving around either near the Russian border in the Sumy Oblast, or in the Kursk border area. As far as I know, the Gepard/Cheetah SPAAGs were not involved in the Kursk offensive and are urgently needed to protect Ukrainian cities and critical infrastructure from Russian terrorist attacks with loitering munitions. I just want to say I haven't seen a Gepard SPAAG this close to the Russian border for years! Very interesting.

This video shows a German/US-delivered Cheetah SPAAG in service with the Ukrainian Air Command South. Deployed somewhere in the Odesa region, it regularly works against Russian Shaheds. As always, I've worked together with StepanS to provide you with English subtitles. Up to 60 Cheetah SPAAGs have been jointly acquired in Jordan by the US and Germany and have been provided to Ukraine. Germany paid for 15 Cheetah SPAAGs, while the US covered the cost for the remaining up to 45 Cheetah SPAAGs.

A small clarification because fake news are doing the rounds again. Germany's Minister of Defence Boris Pistorius did not say at today's UDCG meeting that Germany will support #Ukraine with five Patriot fire units. He said that “Germany will contribute to providing the five urgently needed Patriot systems as quickly as possible”. That statement in my opinion provides us with the information that Ukraine will very likely receive a total of five Patriot fire units but nothing beyond that. The “Germany will contribute to” likely just refers to the fact that Germany is willing to finance two Patriot fire units for Ukraine. A well-known fact that has been widely discussed in recent days and weeks. We also know that another fire unit is to be financed by Norway. But no where he says that Germany will finance or deliver all five Patriot fire units alone and I would like to point out once again that people should think about from where they get information about current events. Large follower numbers say nothing about credibility.
