Rheinmetall to supply Ukraine with propelling charges for 155mm artillery

Rheinmetall has been contracted by the Ukrainian Ministry of Defence to supply 155mm artillery propellant charge modules.

(PresseBox) (Düsseldorf, )
The order, booked in Q4 2024, is worth around €9 million. It envisages the delivery of several tens of thousands of 155mm propellant charge modules of various types. They are to be delivered in January 2025.

Rheinmetall is one of the world's leading manufacturers of large-calibre ammunition and propellant systems. In modern artillery, projectiles and propelling charges are loaded separately in order to achieve different ranges.

With extensive deliveries and support services for Ukraine, Rheinmetall is now the country's most important defence industry partner in its defensive struggle against Russian aggression. During the ‘Ukraine Recovery Conference 2024’ in Berlin, the company and Ukraine signed a memorandum of understanding to expand their strategic cooperation. The agreement aims to identify and develop further areas for deeper cooperation between the Ukrainian defence industry and the Düsseldorf-based technology group.

Concrete projects in the planning stage include the production of artillery ammunition as well as the delivery and production of Lynx infantry fighting vehicles. In addition to possible direct deliveries by Rheinmetall, the (re-) industrialisation of national manufacturing know-how is intended to make a significant contribution to Ukraine's sustainable defence capability.
