The budget committee of the Bundestag, Germany's parliament, on 16 November approved funding for the procurement of 50 Dingo 2 A4.1 armoured vehicles for the Bundeswehr, the German Federal Ministry of Defence announced on its website the next day.
The ministry gave a value of approximately EUR150 million (USD163.5 million) for the procurement, paid for by the German government's Enable and Enhance Initiative to support partner states with military materiel and training, to replace Dingos donated to Ukraine.
