[kqcke for you]

There might be another 6 Iris-T SLM Units that are going to Ukraine in the future. That would make a total of 14 Systems for them tought this still is quite vague and the original source might not exist...

While we wait for conformation for the 6 new systems atleast the Bundeswehr achieved today IOC for Iris-T SLM.
Honestly if i understood it correctly IOC wasn't gonna happen before Q2-4 2025 tough maybe that was for FOC. Still its a very fast time for the Bundeswehr
