“I took one look at the previous annual procurement plans for 2016. Summer field uniform – 500 thousand sets. High-top boots – 500 thousand pairs. This is 1 billion hryvnia, at this year’s prices,” Biryukov said.
According to him, uniform stocks have already been created in the sector warehouses for all military personnel of the fourth wave of mobilization.
“Within a week we should finish issuing new-style combat boots in the ATO zone. The process is going better in sectors A and M, a little worse in sector B, and it’s still sad in sector C,” added Poroshenko’s advisor.
He also added that from October 1, early delivery of the second set of uniforms and clothing to fighters of the 5th wave of mobilization will begin. And starting from November 1, they will issue the second set to the military of the 6th wave of mobilization.
