Lithuania has been helping Ukraine to repair its Leopard 2 tanks after they were damaged in the war against Russia.
  • Ukraine is set to receive a hybrid air defense tank from Germany.
  • It consists of a Skyranger turret mounted on a Leopard 2 chassis, per arms manufacturer Rheinmetall.
  • This comes as both Russian and Ukrainian armies struggle against exploding drones.

Ukraine's war effort may soon get a boost from a new hybrid tank that merges a Cold War-era tank chassis with an advanced air defense system.
