BAE Systems and AMS Integrated Solutions Ltd have committed to working together to offer support for artillery systems being used in Ukraine and produced by BAE Systems.
During a visit to Kyiv, the two companies have signed an agreement that will enable them to offer specialised artillery systems support directly to Ukrainian armed forces from within Ukraine.
Under the agreement, the BAE Systems and AMS team will offer repair and support services for artillery systems donated by the UK Government.
Further, AMS would use existing maintenance centres in Ukraine, where it employs Ukrainian engineers.
Both BAE Systems and AMS have significant proven expertise in the support of medium and large calibre weapon systems.
BAE Systems originally manufactured a significant proportion of the equipment that the UK and other governments have provided to Ukraine.
The Company is currently working with neighbouring NATO countries to provide support, training and repairs to the Ukrainian armed forces.
AMS is a leading provider of Maintenance, Repair & Overhaul Services, to Governments, Aid Agencies and commercial organisations.
The company already has an agreement with the UK Ministry of Defence to repair platforms in use in Ukraine and have established facilities in country to carry out this work.
