Ukraine’s Special Operations Forces just received Germany’s brand-new G95, the Heckler & Koch HK416-based weapon the Bundeswehr only began issuing to its own combat units last December. One Ukrainian operator’s review was short: smooth, manageable, easy to maintain, and “better than the M4A1.” Ouch…
In this video I explain what Ukraine actually received and what we still don’t know. I also cover why the G95 fires the same 5.56 NATO as an M4 but differs almost everywhere else: a short-stroke piston that keeps the action cleaner, suppressor-friendly gas adjustment, a rigid platform for optics, lasers and thermal sights, ambidextrous controls, and HK’s “over-the-beach” reliability after getting wet.
If you’d like to help Ukraine defend its cities and civilians from Russian drones and missiles, UNITED24’s Sky Defense program is a great place to do it.
Every contribution helps fund air-defense capabilities where they’re needed most.
