The Ukrainian Armed Forces procured 1,500 motorcycles and saved millions
The Defense Procurement Agency (DPA) has signed contracts to supply 1,500 motorcycles to the Armed Forces of Ukraine. According to Mykhailo Fedorov, the procurement saved approximately 12 million hryvnias.
According to the head of the Ministry of Defense, this is three times more than in the entire previous year. The entire shipment of vehicles will be delivered to the military as early as this year.
“Mobility on the front lines directly affects the speed of combat operations and the safety of military personnel.
Motorcycles remain one of the most in-demand vehicles on the front lines, alongside pickup trucks. They provide the military with high mobility and help them quickly carry out tasks in conditions of complex logistics and rough terrain,” Fedorov explained.
Six companies participated in the motorcycle procurement. The process saved nearly 12 million hryvnias, which will be allocated to additional military support, including the purchase of other necessary vehicles.
“We followed the same principle for the largest procurement of 155mm long-range artillery rounds. Competition among the participants allowed us to secure better terms for the state and further strengthen the supply of the troops.
The goal is to gradually transition to tender procedures for all defense procurements,” he added.
Mykhailo Fedorov shared this on Telegram.
