This is reported by CNN with reference to the statement of the Rheinmetall CEO Armin Papperger.
Papperger also announced that 20 Marder fighting vehicles will be ready by the end of March.
He also stated that his company "doubled capacity, and in some sectors even tripled it."
"In weapons production, the warehouse is full, we are running at full steam here and we can still increase capacity with one shift," Papperger added, noting that contracts must be signed for that.
