As part of the Rinat Akhmetov Steel Front initiative, Metinvest Group has established mass production of protective screens for Roshel armored vehicles – Canadian-made equipment that is actively used on the front lines.The Roshel Senator armored vehicles are Canadian wheeled platforms widely deployed by the Ukrainian Armed Forces for personnel transport, medical evacuation, and patrol missions. While they come equipped with solid base armor, the realities of the Ukrainian frontline require additional protection from FPV drones and shrapnel.To address this, Metinvest has launched production of external protective screens – special metal structures mounted onto the exterior of the vehicles. These screens act as a barrier, intercepting blast waves and fragments before they can reach the vehicle’s hull. This significantly reduces the risk of equipment damage and crew injuries.The project is being carried out in close coordination with the military. The screen design was developed by Metin

As part of Rinat Akhmetov's Steel Front initiative, Metinvest has begun producing specialized steel screens for armored personnel carriers. These screens significantly reduce the threat from enemy kamikaze drones. To date, the company has manufactured 14 screens compatible with М113, FV432 and YPR-765 models.The protective screens are mounted on top of the armored personnel carrier, creating a barrier in front of the vehicle's hull. When a kamikaze drone strikes this structure, its payload either fails to detonate or explodes at a safe distance, preventing critical damage to both the vehicle and its crew. Similar construction from Metinvest's production has already proven successful on Abrams, Bradley, and Leopard tanks.The M113 armored personnel carrier is one of the world's most widely used and battle-tested combat vehicles. Developed in the United States during the 1960s, it currently serves in more than 50 countries. Ukraine received M113s through international partners, particula
