Learn about how Ukraine is utilizing a relatively unsophisticated but effective weapon from the 1970s, the Flakpanzer Gepard, to fight against Russia's aggression. Despite being close to 50 years old, the Gepard, a self-propelled anti-aircraft gun, has been filling an important role in Ukraine's air-defense network by taking out low-flying drones and missiles that are too cheap and numerous to justify using sophisticated surface-to-air missiles. However, the Gepards are facing challenges due to limited access to ammunition, as the country that manufactures their ammunition, Switzerland, has refused to sell more to Ukraine due to its neutrality commitments. Find out how Ukraine is overcoming these challenges and utilizing the Gepards to defend against Russian threats.
