KYIV, Sept 18 – Ukraine has received from the United States industrial-grade 3D printers capable of printing spare parts for equipment on the battlefield, Assistant Secretary of Defense for Acquisition William LaPlante has said.

"Then we just finally last month we got them these industrial-size 3D printers into country. And this last week, we trained them on it… I mean, we're talking like a truck size that the Ukrainians have finished training on. It's going right in theater and they're printing all their repair parts," the official said speaking at the Center for a New American Security, Voice of America has reported.
