The Czech Republic will produce mobile anti-aircraft installations for the AFU, the main task of which will be the fight against Russian kamikaze drones of the Geranium type. The Netherlands will pay for the order.

The Dutch ordered the assembly of new anti-aircraft systems based on pickups in the Czech Republic. According to the director of the Agency for Intergovernmental Defense Cooperation (AMOS) Alyosha Vitechka, Amsterdam is ready to pay for the supply of one hundred (100) anti-aircraft systems to Ukraine. In addition, the Netherlands will also pay for the supply of ammunition for these complexes, having also purchased them in the Czech Republic. Details of the contract are not disclosed for "security reasons".

According to the Ukrainian press, we are talking about Viktor mobile complexes from Excalibur Army, which are a paired anti-aircraft installation of two 14.5 mm machine guns mounted on a pickup truck. In the basic version, this is a Toyota pickup truck. Such a complex is capable of quickly changing the firing location and hitting targets at a range of up to 2 kilometers. Ammunition - 300 rounds in two belts and an additional stock of another 300 pieces.

The installation is capable of firing at aerial targets at night, for this it is equipped with a night anti-aircraft sight, there is also a daytime one. For shooting at ground targets with direct fire, there is its own sight.

In Kiev, they say that such anti-aircraft installations are necessary for the Armed Forces of Ukraine to combat kamikaze drones used by Russia, for which it is a pity to spend very expensive missiles of Western air defense systems. The new mobile complexes should replace numerous homemade pickups based on pickups with machine guns mounted on them in the APU.
