Ukrainian steelmaker Metinvest announced that it has delivered hundreds of special mobile shelters to the defenders in the areas of the front, where the fiercest battles are taking place, in particular near Bakhmut, within the framework of the military initiative Steel Front of Rinat Akhmetov. These security modules allow armed forces to quickly equip mobile shelters at the forefront. Prefabricated structures with a diameter of 2 meters and a length of 6 meters are manufactured at the company's enterprises. If properly installed one and a half meters underground, shelters are able to withstand artillery shelling with a caliber of up to 152 mm. The shelter, which can house six fighters at the same time, is equipped with a field oven that allows you to warm up, warm up food and dry clothes. The capsule provides air communications and racks for weapons; there is a main and backup exits to the surface. The production of one shelter requires almost 2 tonnes of Metinvest's steel, and work on it lasts 165 hours.In addition, Metinvest's specialists have developed a prototype capsule that can also be used for civilian Ukrainians. The diameter and length of the structure were increased by one and half times, the internal equipment was improved, the sleeping places were replaced with benches. Final testing of the capsule is currently underway.The geography of the capsules is quite wide: they reliably protect the lives of fighters in Avdiivka, Pokrovsk, Zaporizhia and Zhytomyr regions. And the other day Metinvest handed over shelter to the defenders, which will save the lives of soldiers near Bakhmut.
