In her interview with DW, German FM Annalena Baerbock said that the IRIS-T SLM system is now being manufactured for Ukraine and, “hopefully,” will be ready by the end of summer.
Previously, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz announced on 1 June that Germany was going to supply its IRIS-T SLM to Ukraine.
The IRIS-T SLM is a medium-range anti-aircraft missile system designed to destroy aircraft, helicopters, unmanned aerial vehicles, cruise and ballistic missiles.
