At the end of 2024, the 500th anniversary of Empl Unimog U5000 built by Empl was officially received by the Lithuanian Armed Forces Depot Service in Kaunas. The robust, all-terrain vehicles are used for logistical supply, personnel transportation, medical evacuation and special personnel tasks.
The local procurement agency had already concluded the latest contract increase of 51 vehicles as part of an agreement with Daimler Trucks and NATO Support and Procurement Agency (NSPA) only last September. https://militaeraktuell.at/wef-davos-bundesheer-sichert-den-luftraum/
