Anand said he is happy to confirm that the deal has been signed with the company.
Anand added that these units, equipped with modern armor and machine guns, will be delivered to Ukraine as soon as they come off the assembly line.
The minister emphasized Canada’s continued commitment to support Ukraine as Russia continues its special military operation in the eastern parts of the country.
In late June, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau pledged $388 million in military aid to Kyiv, including 39 ACSVs and drone cameras.
