Anti-aircraft weapons are being transferred. It is noted that since the summer of 2022, the Gepard missile defense system has "proven itself to be an extremely efficient and economical ground-based air defense system, especially in the fight against drones and the protection of critical infrastructure.":
The highly mobile ZSU Skyranger 35, built on the Leopard 1 chassis and designed to operate at short and ultra-short distances, was also delivered. Like Skynex, it uses a programmable 35 mm AHEAD projectile with aerial detonation, which makes it possible to effectively hit even small targets by creating a cloud of submunitions at the calculated point.
