The US explained the desire of Ukraine to buy more "Javelins"

The American anti-tank missile system (ATGM) FGM-148 Javelin, purchased by Ukraine from the United States, is capable of destroying almost all of the armored vehicles used by militias and the Russian army in the Donbass, so Ukraine needs as many of these complexes as possible. This statement was made by the author of an article published on the portal Popular Mechanics.

The US explained the desire of Ukraine to buy more "Javelins"




The Ukrainian army has already bought a batch of American anti-tank missile systems FGM-148 Javelin to confront the Russian army and militias in the Donbass and has recently requested the purchase of another batch of anti-tank systems. The American journalist wondered why this complex is what Ukraine wants to buy.

According to the author of the article, not only local militias are involved in the conflict in the east of Ukraine, but also the regular Russian army with its weapons and it is with this equipment that Ukrainian army units will have to face when Russian troops attack the Western countries. And in this case, American Javelin systems that can destroy Tanks T-90 and T-72 and infantry fighting vehicles BMP-2 and BMP-3, as well as other armored vehicles in service with the Russian Armed Forces.

Proper use, and Javelin is very easy to use, could mean the destruction of dozens of armored vehicles if Russian troops deployed west again. This can lead to a series of humiliating, demoralizing defeats of the Russian troops and their agents

- cites the publication statement of the author.

At present, the Ukrainian army is armed with 37 FGM-148 Javelin ATGM launchers and 210 missiles for them, purchased in the USA in 2018, the newspaper writes, but this is not enough to reflect Russia's possible invasion of Ukraine. However, against the backdrop of a scandal with US President Donald Trump, Washington could block the delivery of an additional shipment of ATGM data to Kiev in the near future.

    I marvel at the thought of that thought:
    Why haven’t I stopped, why haven’t I been pouring?
    Why should I, God, never let krill be?

        Why write in a foreign language? Write in Russian, or at least with a translation into Russian, so that you do not have to strain and re-read several times for understanding. I don’t write in English here, although I know him almost perfectly. Respect the Russian language!

          So, offhand, for Russian comrades, my translation winked (not entirely authentic, since, for example, the expression "I am guessing" is deeper in meaning than its literal or approximate Russian translation, well, in general, this poem carries a semantic load that is completely understandable, probably only to native speakers who were born and raised on Ukraine, which has absorbed all its atmosphere, like the same with many real poems in Russian or other languages, is it not for nothing that literary works are best read "in the original language" ?!) Shevchenko's lines known to every Ukrainian inhabitant:

          I look at the sky and think:
          Why am I not a falcon, why not fly?
          Why didn’t you give me wings?
          I would have left the earth and flew into the sky!

          Even Magomayev did not disdain their execution

          You still forbid Pesnyarov to listen ... the same ones haven’t always performed songs in Russian ... this is due to the fact that their artistic director and one of the performers was from the Urals ...

            You see, that country is no longer unfortunately. You need to live today. Yes, after all, VO is not the site where we discuss old songs in languages, once from the same country. Note that I did not call for a ban, as you wrote above, but required a translation into Russian.

                    I do not understand your arrogant tone. I don’t notice any difference in the “dialect” of Tver and Kaliningrad, just as I don’t hear the difference in pronunciation of guys from Murmansk and Chelyabinsk. A person from Sakhalin says “hang” instead of hang, there are no more differences in Russian speech.

                        Working in a mixed carriage, I can easily distinguish Odessa or Lithuanian, but between the Russians there is no big difference in pronunciation, as you might think.
                        I heard you, you are fighting for the complete abolition of the examination for knowledge of the Russian language when obtaining citizenship of the Russian Federation. I believe that you need to respect and know the state language of the country in which you want to move.

Everything that you are telling is still echoes of the formation of the USSR, when everyone was taught the literary Russian language. But nevertheless, each locality has its own peculiarities, this is under the "mascot" "mascots", under the "cucking" Belarusians, under the "gagging" South Russian dialect, they nevertheless remained and no, yes, no, but they appear. I can judge this by myself. But there is also a bunch of words and concepts that are characteristic only of a certain area, as Dal told about it very well, you will have time to read it ... I think it will be interesting for you. It's called "Talk" ..., maybe then you will understand what I'm trying to explain to you

                        You are one of those people who jump from one topic to another when there is nothing to cover. Lose the main message, twist the situation. Let me remind you the logical chain:
                        You rushed in with a comment here with the main message:
                        You know, this verse so often sounded in the USSR that it somehow causes not understanding among the inhabitants of that country ...
                        Even Magomayev did not disdain their execution

                        Also, without understanding my comment, they did not understand it, they suggested that I ban Pesnyarov, although this does not apply to my reasoning, to which I tactfully replied that I did not propose anything to ban. Did I explicitly hint to you that that country is no longer there (USSR), do you agree with this, or are you still living the day before yesterday?
                        For my part, it is logical to assume that if you are anxious about the time in the USSR and the songs of the Pesnyarov, then you should like the Uzbek language. After all, Uzbekistan was also part of the USSR.

                        Having not received any explanations for that correspondence, you immediately jumped to:
                        You know, you obviously have some kind of "fad".

                        A very transparent hint that does not carry a semantic load. Not responding to my comment.
                        Then, to put it mildly, you jumped off the topic of other languages ​​into spoken:
                        Ah ... Well, what can I say ... So I understand that the Tver talk filled all the supermarkets in Moscow

                        And yet, what side do you think of doctors or mediums? By writing this:
                        Are you sure that your hearing is normal? I creep in doubt about the professionalism of the doctors of your commission ...

                        How did you decide by correspondence, never talking to me or the doctors who checked my hearing that I had hearing problems? At the same time, without answering my question, about whether you check your hearing annually or not.
                        I heard you, you fight for

                        In this context, this means: I understand you. Young generation has such a slang, do not blame me.
                        You do not get very upset, not only you do not know how to build a logical chain in the story. This has been given to some, but not to others.
                        And I, as a person working with people from different countries and different ends of our country, do not need to talk about talking, etc. The conversation was originally not about this, you moved out on this topic, but to the point it does not apply.

          Sharky, will you really decide who you mean by the word "Ukrainians" ?! smile
          After all, we have a MULTINATIONAL population living in Ukraine, and the "stoned" Natsiks and the "Ukrainian" klepto "w / Banderaites" who rule them are a minority, but they are in power, predominantly armed and aggressive, and, besides all the subordinate state "coercive apparatus" they are supported, with all their military, information-propagandistic and economic power, by the Washington invaders-colonizers of Ukraine and the "all-European" amerovassals!
          We, Ukrainians (in the sense, multinational Ukrainian residents), were captured and occupied by the United States in 2014, as a result of an ARMED "Euromaidan" coup d'etat! The "Maidan" ameromarionettes and compradors-kleptoligarchs brought to power by the invaders perform the functions of the occupation administration, they behave this way, look this way and talk like that!
          And you, Sharky, didn't you know this and, I see from your "instructions to the Ukrainians", are still in naive blissful ignorance ?!
          The fact that I am still on the Web, in spite of the Banderonazis, blather about it on Russian websites and VO is not at all my "merit", but only the "flaw" of the Bandera "basepack", which at any moment can (the corresponding equipment by the Americans already provided!) "calculate" such a "thought criminal" and forever "stop the disgrace" - on this account I have no illusions and Russians will not even hear my name anywhere, since 2014 many people have disappeared without a trace and for less is " Ukraine ", Sharky, no joke here now!

            You know how we say:
            Where there are many words, there is little wisdom.
            And:
            Every person in fact is cognized.
            So, the Maidan did not take place in my country, however, in addition to communicating here with you, I also help Donbass financially. Have you even sent a penny to the boys there even for cigarettes?

        Yes, and the invasion will be preceded by art \ airstrike. If during the assault on Berlin, 41 Soviet guns and mortars were fired on the enemy, now the numbers will be higher
        plus everyone understands the lack of meaning in the invasion. 5 years have passed. The people of Ukraine are tired of "Victories". And from "Putin will attack" too.
        The cost of the rocket in the launch container is approaching $ 100 thousand in 2013 prices, and the cost of the command and launch unit is $ 126 thousand in 2002 prices, which makes Javelin the most expensive ATGM in the history of the creation and use of such systems. I do not believe that the United States will not take anything for this.
        I think the point is different. ATO has faded for a long time. attempts to inflate it are accepted, but somehow without enthusiasm. Perhaps the Kiev oligarchs agree with the oligarchs of the DNI to send an attack on the tank. Or two. This has already happened. One tank was driven in the direction of the positions of the Armed Forces, it was fired (like AGS-17). Active armor caught fire.
        The budget clerks rejoiced at the forums for two days. "SlavaUkrainili". The cautious questions of those doubting "how was the tank knocked out from the AGS?" They answered "you do not like Ukraine, you are not a patriot, you are a provocateur from the Russian Federation!" And they were banned forever
        I think the DPR will send two or three tanks, ostensibly in response to the shelling exactly where the position of the Jewels is. They (tanks) will be destroyed. And in the Armed Forces of Ukraine there will be a plot similar to the "feat of 28 Panfilov's men". that the brave calculation of the patriot Ibanko stopped Putin's tank wedges with the weapons of his American partners. so give me more money.
        And everyone is happy. The USA experienced PTRS in the field and they will take money from suckers, Kiev extra loans, Putin rating in the elections of 2024 - here it is, the threat of the West and Bandera! The oligarchs of the DPR also have their own profit. And the soldiers who died in tanks ... and who cares about their lives?

    The Ukrainian army has already purchased a batch of American anti-tank missile systems FGM-148 Javelin
    I bought it, but they are under the control of American instructors and under the ban on the appearance on the demarcation line (front). Zelensky, expressing a desire to buy another batch, simply crouched in front of Trump with hope, and suddenly they would give at least a couple.
    This can lead to a series of humiliating, demoralizing defeats of the Russian troops

        Once again about the history of the creation of J.
        It was created in the midst of H.Voyna .. Then, in the view of NATO strategists, the WB offensive is BT waves .. and for technology in such waves of JJ. quite suitable. Since then, the detection tools have improved by an order of magnitude .. no one will attack with tank wedges ala 40e. It is aimed at the target in its direct line of sight ..- suicide. The future in the fight against BT is for high-speed, long-range missiles with high penetration ability or a land mine. This is the only way to ensure the non-recoverability of VET.

Is it stupid to make a breach in the defense with tanks? They do not think that Grady and Buratino will work out in the direction of the main attack, combat helicopters will "clean up" the near rear, and the massive use of tanks (not a company, and not a battalion, but a division) will immediately allow tanks and infantry fighting vehicles to enter the operational space , and then how to stop?
