The center would start operating this month to ensure the maintenance of weapons used for the war in Ukraine, the company announced on Sunday.
“The service hub should play a central role in maintaining the operational readiness of Western combat systems used in Ukraine and ensuring the availability of logistical support,” a company spokesman said.
The center, located near the border with Ukraine, will provide service for self-propelled howitzers, Leopard 2 and Challenger tanks, Marder infantry fighting vehicles, Fuchs armored personnel carriers and military trucks, reports Reuters.
“It is a key concern for us at Rheinmetall to provide NATO forces and Ukraine with the best possible support,” CEO Armin Papperger said in a statement.
Rheinmetall established a similar center in Lithuania in June 2022 to provide support for NATO vehicles in the Baltic states.
