Krauss-Maffei Wegmann will undertake the work on the Finnish Army’s Leopard 2 A4 and 2 A6 MBTs, which were originally procured from Germany and the Netherlands. The expert resources of Millog Oy, the strategic partner of the FDF, will also be used for installation work and logistics, with a domestic employment effect of approximately 3 to 4 person-years.

The MoD valued the procurement, including options, at €10 million, excluding VAT.
