As reported on www.podarunokputinu.org.ua/kampane/cestmir with the emblem of the Czeck Ministry of Defense, there is an opportunity to purchase a used Sikorsky UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter named "Chestmir". The fundraiser wants to send it into battle in Ukraine as soon as possible.

The fundraiser of the « Buy Black Hawk » project consulted with experts and the Ukrainian side regarding the price of just over 100 million kroner. The machine dates back to the 1980s and was inspected by Ukrainian aviation experts. It is in good condition and it will be used for operations by Ukrainian military intelligence, which wants to use it in special operations and for pilot training. It is important to know that this organization already owns and uses at least one of these machines.

After the acquisition, ‘’Chestmir’’ will be ferried to Ukraine with the help of the Ministry of Defense of the Czech Republic, where the fundraiser will hand it over to Ukrainian military intelligence.
