The U.S. has provided the Ukrainian military with industrial-size 3D printers to print spare parts for battlefield equipment.

The 3D printers were procured last month and training for the Ukrainian military on operating them was completed in the past week.

The 3D printers are about the size of a truck.

Ukrainian forces were independently using 3D printers to print spare parts at the start of the full-scale invasion.

Ukraine has been supplied with all the relevant technical data packages by the U.S. and other allies to carry out 3D printing.
