"The Armtac 400 is the largest and most efficient demining vehicle worth more than UAH 18 million. And it is already performing tasks in Kharkiv region. This was made possible thanks to your donations through UNITED24. With Armtac 400, sappers will be more protected. Because it has a remote control at a distance up to 800 meters.
