No comments are given regarding the appearance of an armored car in the Kherson region.. clear, that he is in service with one of the units of the Ukrainian ground forces.
note, that the Amir armored car is produced by the Israeli defense company GAIA Automotive Industries. It was presented for the first time at EUROSATORY 2018. I.e, machine version – contemporary. The car is armored, crew protected – can withstand a mine explosion. In Amir can be transported 12 fighters and up to three tons of cargo.
Armored vehicles of this type are used for patrolling, transfer of personnel, delivery of goods to the front line, medical evacuations. As it appears, on the territory of the Kherson region Amir can be used as a patrol armored vehicle, or for the transfer of small units of the size of an infantry squad.
It is not excluded, that Ukraine could receive Israeli-made military equipment through third countries. for example, it could be supplied by the countries of Eastern Europe, previously purchased similar armored vehicles from Israel. However, back in September, a number of media flashed information about, that Israel secretly delivered a batch of armored vehicles to Ukraine, but no official confirmation. The Israeli authorities have repeatedly stated, that they will not supply weapons and military equipment to Ukraine. used photos:Telegram channel "Outpost"
