According to Ukroboronprom, the production of 122mm artillery ammunition is carried out by Ukrainian personnel and using Ukrainian technology. However, the ammunition is manufactured in a facility located in an unspecified NATO member country.
Production started a few months ago and recently Armed Forces of Ukraine received a first batch of an undisclosed amount of 122mm artillery ammunition.
The Armed Forces of Ukraine currently operates several types of artillery systems using 122mm ammunition, for example, the D-30 towed howitzer and 2S1 Gvozdika self-propelled howitzer.
As Defence Industry Europe reported, Ukroboronprom recently also launched the production of 125mm tank ammunition used by T-64, T-72, and T-80 main battle tanks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The production of this ammunition is also carried out outside Ukraine, in one of the NATO countries.
