Czech Army set to get CZK 460 billion in next decade

The Czech Army will require around CZK 460 billion over the next 10 years under a plan to develop the country’s military capabilities agreed by the government. Around a third of the money will go on the purchase of technology, ammunition and equipment, the Czech News Agency reported. The rest will go on regular expenditures and soldiers’ pay. The figures stem from a document outlining plans for the Czech Army rubberstamped by the cabinet earlier this week.
