Ammunition for Thomas and his friends
People from all over the world have bought Thomas the tank for the Ukrainian army, and now he must work really hard. For that he needs ammunition, so we decided to collect money not only for Thomas, but also for his friends: Dana the Howitzer and Vampire the rocket launcher. So let's send 1000s of these "gifts" for Putin to Ukraine.
CAMPAIGN GOAL
The intensity of firing in some sections of the Russian-Ukrainian front approaches that of the largest battles of the Second World War in certain stages, due to the amount of ammunition consumed.
Ammunition is what the Ukrainians really need now, at the time of a successful offensive. The Czech Republic has this military material at its disposal, or its defence industry can provide it. The requirement for ammunition has been consulted directly with the Ukrainians. It's needed and it's needed fast. It will not stay in a warehouse for long.
Let's buy ammunition and send it to the front!
WHAT WILL BE PURCHASED?
Ammunition for modernized T-72 125mm tanks (for our Thomas too).
The tank has an automatic loader with a constant loading angle. 22 shells are stacked in the automatic loader, with the rest located in the turret. The gunner can also use Czech sub-calibre anti-armour shells, which can penetrate 500 mm thick armour at a distance exceeding 2000 m. The tank carries a total of 37 pieces of various ammunition.
122mm rockets for RM-70 Vampire 4D rocket launchers
This rocket launcher can fire single rockets as well as salvos - primarily using indirect firing. It is intended for the concentrated firing coverage of large areas (up to 3 hectares in one salvo) with high-explosive fragmentation grenades. The firing is robust and almost 256 kg of explosives are used in one salvo of 40 rockets.
122mm and 152mm artillery ammunition for the Dana howitzers (77 model) and for the D-30 and D-20 towed howitzers
Howitzers are intended to fight enemy artillery and mortars, to silence and destroy command posts, firepower and radio equipment and enemy manpower, and to demolish permanent defence structures and field defence objects. Dana has a firing rate of 4 rounds per minute when using an autoloader. The maximum range is 20 kilometres.
120mm mortar ammunition
The maximum range of these weapons is 8 km. The mortar can be transported on an additional chassis behind a vehicle or on its base, and it can be easily and quickly dismantled and prepared for firing.
Launching the shells is adjustable - you can use automatic launching when the shells touch the ignitor, or you can launch them manually - by extending the firing pin and pulling the trigger cord.

100% of the money goes to Ukraine

Buy a t-shirt, support us
The costs associated with the campaigns are financed from t-shirt sales.
The gift for Putin was initiated in 2022 as a project to support the defense of Ukraine. In 2023, we became an independent non-profit organization. Supporting Ukraine’s defense, we collaborated with the Embassy of Ukraine in Prague to send equipment worth over 1 billion CZK, and we will continue doing so until Ukraine is free and safe again.
How is this legal?
The Czech Republic (where our fund was established) is one of the few countries where it is not only legal, but explicitly supported by law, for non-profit organizations to raise funds for weapons and military supplies for the Ukrainian army.
How do I get confirmation of my donation?
Select any campaign and if you leave the “I need a donation receipt” option checked, a form will automatically appear where you can enter all the necessary information. Once you complete the payment, the confirmation will be sent to your email automatically. For card payments it’s immediate, for bank transfers it may take a few days.
What about the e‑shop?
From the e‑shop profit (about two thirds of the price) we will pay production, storage and distribution; part of the proceeds will be used to run the fund and the remainder will be invested in weapons for the Ukrainian army.
Will you really buy the exact thing I'm funding?
Yes, that is correct. When you contribute to a specific campaign—like Tomáš the Tank or the Viktor air defense system—your funds are used solely for that specific purpose. While we occasionally purchase equipment while fundraising is still ongoing, it typically happens once the campaign finishes.
The time between the campaign's conclusion and delivery to Ukraine can vary from days to months. The defense industry is complicated, but we keep everyone informed about the entire process on Twitter and through media outlets.
