The Estonian government on Saturday announced the purchase of U.S. HIMARS multiple rocket launcher systems worth more than 190 million euros, the Ministry of Defense Investment Center said in a statement.
The corresponding agreement was signed on Friday between the center's director general, Magnus-Valdemar Saar, and the U.S. Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA), in what is the largest arms deal in its history to date.
"Under the contract, Estonia will also purchase ammunition and communications equipment, including different types of missiles, ranging in range from 70 to 300 kilometers," it has made known in the statement. Estonia expects to receive first shipments of HIMARS in 2024.
"Our personnel will be trained before the weapon systems are delivered, so we will be ready to adopt them as soon as they arrive," added the head of the Defense Investment Center's armaments division, Ramil Lipp, in the release, picked up by Estonian state broadcaster ERR.
