Australia has ramped up its support for Ukrainian forces by sending $50million worth of military vehicles to assist in the European nation's ongoing war with Russia.

The first convoy of 20 refitted Bushmaster vehicles will leave Brisbane on aircraft C-17 Globemasters on Friday.

Australia is one of the first countries to provide combat vehicle support to Ukraine as the Russian invasion enters its sixth week.

The armoured vehicles have been repainted olive green with Ukraine's flag stencilled on each side.

Once again Ukraine has asked for our help and once again we have stepped up.'

'Our Australian-designed and made Bushmasters are known around the world for their usefulness in a combat zone and they will help boost Ukraine's defence against Russia's unprovoked and illegal violence.

'This fight is important because not only are Ukrainian lives and their lands at stake, but so are the principles of freedom and the rule of law.'
