German Defense Minister Accidentally Reveals Advanced RCH-155 Howitzers Are Already in Ukraine

German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius reportedly appeared to confirm, during a visit to KNDS’ Kassel production site, that Ukraine has already received RCH-155 wheeled howitzers. Coverage says his remarks indicated the system is being used and that the location where speakers stood had housed the first howitzer destined for Ukraine about two years earlier. Previously, Germany had only acknowledged training of Ukrainian crews, while frontline presence and combat use had not been officially disclosed.
