Dear Friends,
We urgently call on you to support PRESIDENTIAL BRIGADE and our friend Commander Yuri of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, currently positioned in the intensely violent battle for Luhansk area.
Right now the area of this brigade's responsibility is under heavy assault, but Commander says his unit remains in control as they force back the enemy.
The commander has requested the following equipment:
- Vehicles with high cross-country ability. The best option is a Mitsubishi L200 pickup, 4x4 drive, mechanics. Or any good all-wheel-drive pickup truck with high ground clearance and swamp rubber.
- Anti-drone equipment on the car to protect against FPV drones. An ideal option to cover frequencies from 400MHz to 1000MHz, or at least from 700 to 1000.
- Starlink satellite Internet system + spare cables between the antenna and the router, at least 3 pcs.
- Trench anti-drone rifle against Mavic-type drones, 5.8 and 2.4 range suppression.
- A charging station with a capacity of 3000 W/h, ideally with fast charging, but to pull a 2.5 kW generator. Or any other charging station to get the Starlink working for at least 6 hours.
- An inverter generator with a power of at least 1500W
- Tourniquets, Stretchers and IFAK kits
- Night vision and helmet mount
To meet these needs, we aim to raise $25000 by August 31, 2024
Please stay tuned to this page, as we will continue to provide direct updates from Commander Yuri on the frontlines in Luhansk.
“It’s not for nothing, I think that with your help we will definitely not lose in an unnecessary war.” –Commander Yuri, leader of the PRESIDENTIAL BRIGADE of the Armed Forces of Ukraine
