Denmark is helping Ukraine by providing military support and accelerating the supply of artillery systems.
According to the Danish Ministry of Defense, they have decided to move the deadlines for the transfer of the French-made Caesar artillery systems.
Danish Defense Minister Troels Lund Poulsen stated that their defense industry is ready to provide the necessary equipment to the Ukrainian army. The government plans to sign new contracts this year. The total amount allocated is approximately 2.6 billion Danish kroner, which is more than 360 million dollars.
Previously, the transfer of the Caesar system was scheduled for 2026, but now the artillery systems will be given to the Ukrainian army in 2025. The supplies of ammunition for this artillery will also be accelerated.
The Caesar artillery system is a modern installation that stands out for its mobility, accuracy, and high firepower. It can be quickly deployed, fire, and immediately change position to avoid enemy fire. This installation is used by many armies around the world due to its versatility and effectiveness in various conditions - from deserts to mountainous areas.
The automated fire control system significantly enhances the effectiveness of the Caesar, making it an important tool for artillery support of ground troops in modern armed conflicts.
The Ukrainian army was also recently reinforced with F-16 fighters that were sent from Denmark.
Additionally, the Pentagon revealed details of a new military aid package for Ukraine.
