There is no details about the agreement, but Germany's defense minister Christine Lambert speaks to the establishment of Mantis. It will be installed for defense of the German repair center near the city of Mikhalivtsi in Slovakia. It was launched for the repair of German equipment, which was handed over to the Ukrainian army. Probably, Germany wants to install such a installation because of fears of Russian attacks or Kamikadze rockets or drones. Mantis SAM is a small radius complex.
It is capable of knocking down the winged rockets and UAVs within 3 km. The installation is able to shoot up to 1000 shots per minute. Defense Express also added that the RheinMetall concern received a contract of 182 million euros. The company will make two Skynex anti-aircraft artillery units by 2024. Supplies to Slovakia Mantis can seriously strengthen the country's air defense, since they have only Soviet samples in service: CUB-1 CUB-1 PSRC.
