The United States Government has donated 14 mine-resistant, ambush-protected armored personnel carriers (APCs), valued at over $6 million, to the Ghana Armed Forces (GAF).
The official handover, which took place on Wednesday at Burma Camp in Accra, symbolized the deepening of the U.S.-Ghana security partnership and demonstrated the bilateral defence cooperation between the two countries.
The Puma M36 vehicles, designed for enhanced troop protection and mobility, are expected to significantly strengthen the operational readiness of the GAF, particularly in counter-terrorism and border security operations.
The APCs are intended to boost the country's capacity to respond to emerging threats and safeguard its territorial integrity.
