SARASOTA, Fla., Aug. 15,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Global Ordnance, a leading US
defense company, along with its subsidiary Global Military
Products, reiterates its unwavering support for the Ukrainian Armed
Forces through our direct contracts with Ukraine and our supply contracts with the US
Army and other allied nations.
Recently, there have been many blogs and articles containing
significant misinformation regarding Global Ordnance/Global
Military Products and our performance on contracts in support of
Ukraine. The real facts provide a
much different picture: since December
2021, Global Ordnance has delivered 57,290 metric tons of
military goods to Ukraine through
both direct contracts and our contracts with the US and other
allied nations.
Examples of ammunition and other military products provided to
date include, but are not limited to:
- 824,630 units of large caliber ammunition, artillery shells,
and missiles
- 141,672 units of various rocket-propelled grenades, launchers,
mines, and hand grenades
- 77 artillery weapon systems
- 198 armored personnel carriers (APCs)
- 3,481 small and medium caliber guns and 27,565,517 rounds of
small and medium caliber ammunition
- 130 anti-aircraft guns, MANPADS with missiles, and unguided
aircraft rockets
In 2023 Global Ordnance donated man-portable air
defense systems (MANPADS) worth over $2.3 million. This contribution
significantly bolstered Ukraine's
defensive capabilities, aiding in the defense of Kyiv from the aggressions targeting the
civilian population.
During the mandatory evacuation of the US Embassy in
Ukraine in 2022, and despite the
US government's urging for all Americans to leave Ukraine, Global Ordnance employees remained in
the Ukraine to coordinate
continued supply of weapons and ammunition to the Ukrainian Armed
Forces.
Since June 2022, Global Ordnance
has faced a large-scale campaign against its operations, including
daily attacks on its IT network and attempts to intimidate and
discredit the company and its employees through press articles and
blogs. These actions are psychological operations (PSYOPS) attempts
by russia to disrupt Global Ordnance's critical supply and
logistical elements supporting Ukraine's defense forces. We stand strongly
and fight shoulder to shoulder with the Ukrainian Armed Forces to
bring the critically needed defense supplies to Ukraine.
Through all challenges, Global Ordnance remains steadfast in its
mission and undeterred, continuing to deliver needed ammunition,
weapons and other military supplies supporting the defense of
Ukraine. The company is committed
to supporting the fight for freedom, standing resilient against any
attempts to undermine its operations. Global Ordnance will
continue to supply the freedom-loving people of Ukraine with the critical munitions and
military equipment needed to support their valiant efforts to
achieve peace and freedom. Слава Україні!
