Belgium to supply 15 Gepard systems to Ukraine

Belgium will buy back, repair, and supply 15 decommissioned Gepard self-propelled anti-aircraft guns (SPAAGs) to Ukraine. The systems are part of a €1 billion military aid package approved by Belgium in early April 2026. The Gepards were decommissioned by the Belgian army in the early 2000s, sold to a private company, and are now being sourced from OIP Land Systems for refurbishment and transfer.
