Russia and Ukraine flashpoint

[shavenferret]

Ukraine welcomes Rheinmetall's new facility for production of Fuchs and KF41 Lynx armored vehicles. Rheinmetall is building a factory in ukraine which will provide a large number of jobs and help build up its defense industry. This sounds like a long-term development, which is great because it is getting them away from soviet IFV's in the future. We won't be able to just give away Bradley's forever, so this is a good move with lots of future benefits. The Lynx in particular is a good vehicle. The united states was wanting to use it as a base for its next IFV concept to be used after the bradley but i don't have a lot of info on that.
