What does 10,547,908 hryvnias and 80 kopecks look like?
What does 6 months of hard logistics work look like?
What does 200 tons (with cargo) of mi-mi-mish looks like?
6 months ago I showed a photo of two Oshkosh M1070 army tractors. At that time, there was no talk of Abrams M1A2 tanks, and these tractors were designed to transport these tanks. However, in August 2022, we were asked for extra-heavy tractors by artillerymen who already had German PzH2000s in service - 64 tons, which our production Krazy cannot pull.
6 months of detective logistics, because transporting an oversized military trailer across Europe is a detective story. Even closer to a thriller. We had to obtain British export, American re-export, and Polish transit licenses. We had to find oversized trailers, large cranes, escorts, and clearance.
Six months have passed and our two tractor-trailers are now working in the Armed Forces. You paid half of the cost, and Petro Poroshenko paid the other half. Together we have solved a very difficult, urgent and very necessary task - to help artillerymen in the rapid transportation of super-heavy self-propelled artillery systems. And not just super-heavy, but also super-efficient!
I often write "you bring victory closer with your contributions". And this is exactly the case, literally, because the tractors bring the deadly and victorious German self-propelled artillery systems closer to the battlefield without wasting their precious motor life.
Task completed, project closed.
A new logistics project, no less effective and important, is next in line. The budget will be more than UAH 14 million, but this project will bring many times more benefits. We'll show you in a couple of weeks (intrigue).
