Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine announced the need to strengthen the air defense of Ukraine in a conversation with the head of the US OKNSh

Currently, Ukraine needs to strengthen the air defense forces. This was stated by the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, General Valery Zaluzhny, during a telephone conversation with the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the US Armed Forces, General Mark Milley.

As Zaluzhny himself said in his Telegram channel, he informed General Mark Milli about the situation on the line of contact, calling the situation "difficult, but controlled." The issues of the supply of weapons and ammunition were discussed separately.



In addition, Zaluzhny noted the importance of strengthening Ukraine's air defense, which is of particular importance against the backdrop of ongoing missile attacks on the country's military and energy infrastructure.

Recall that today the US Department of Defense announced the allocation of a new package of military assistance to Ukraine, which included various types of ammunition, anti-tank systems, air defense equipment, as well as a large number of special vehicles.

At the same time, a special meeting on cooperation between the North Atlantic Alliance and Ukraine is being held at NATO headquarters, at which issues of expanding military assistance to the Kyiv regime are also discussed. Ukraine is represented at the meeting by Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba.

          They take an example from the "teachers", and they don't have stars on their shoulder straps, but rhombuses. Four rhombuses with a mace - consider a "full" general of the army.
          Later, probably, another fifth rhombus will be added, if I'm not mistaken, so that it would be like the Americans ...

    SAMs are not tanks or infantry fighting vehicles that can be supplied from the same storage (abrams, bradleys, armored hummers), as a rule, there are no extra air defense systems, they are all in service. And what exactly are they waiting for in Ukraine? there are few nasams, all kinds of iris, etc., even less, only patriots come to mind, of which there are many, but these are not short-range air defense systems, but as I understand them, they require air defense systems up to 50 km in range.

      Lt. Air Force Reserve hi, if I'm not mistaken, the Deutsche conveyed what they themselves covered the sky with a piece, that is, to the detriment of their own Bundeswehr. So that others will be able all the more, - "If a cowboy orders, someone will refuse him." (WITH).

        If I'm not mistaken, then the Hans, together with Raytheon, have long completed their own R&D under the analogue of MIM 109.

        in order for a nuclear umbrella to exist, it must itself be covered by air defense systems.
        In Europe, except for France, it does not have its own nuclear weapons, and France's nuclear umbrella is intended to protect only France itself.
        As for England, they have nuclear strategic nuclear weapons in the form of only one nuclear component, namely, the naval one, where there are American nuclear missiles that need a command from the United States to launch.
        Therefore, Europe, as it demilitarizes in favor of Ukraine, is becoming less and less covered from attacks, and soon this will become critical, as they literally transfer all their air defense to Ukraine.

          and the Russian Federation will hit Europe with a nuclear weapon? it is unlikely that we have not yet changed the concept of a counter strike! so what are Europe afraid of?? they will cover the nuclear storage bases and that’s it, and so what would be in vulnerable places, and everything else will be given away! well it's so simple a thought no more! nudk not the Russian Federation said that it was necessary to destroy Europe, but Europe said that it was necessary to destroy the Russian Federation! if they go for broke then why not do that?? they openly say it, even a warrant was issued for Putin, this is the same declaration of war! well, it’s just interesting, but here we’re just building a theory and fantasizing

            Well, it’s you in vain, when the time comes or they cross the red line, then we’ll hit, so much so that everything inside goes up in the ass. You need to remember the simple truth that if you prepare for a long time and talk about the war, it will definitely begin - Ukraine and Russia are a vivid example of this ...

      Why. Iran was supplied with 5 divisions from storage warehouses and in a very short time. Well, of course, brought to PMU-2. And they offered more modern Antei 2500

        Yes, we have air defense systems that are being removed from service and replaced with new ones, the same S-400 air defense systems that replace the S-300PM1 / 2. There are few air defense systems abroad, as a rule, fighters are engaged in air defense tasks. So they can't afford it.
        I looked at the countries operating Nasams: Spain 4 batteries, the Netherlands 2 batteries, Indonesia 2 batteries. Very few are in use.

          So we, the air defense, before the Aerospace Forces had our own aviation. Pretty powerful. With the Best of the Best. Now it is called mixed air regiments. But the essence is still the same. Specialization. Air defense pilots, both engaged and engaged in escort, air superiority and reflection. attacks from the air, and the Air Force pilots excellently straighten the ground. Ground-based air defense systems wink, We protect them. Harmony

      They demand long-range air defense systems. They were crying that our aviation is not included in the coverage area of ​​​​their air defense systems and they need to fight it. This was said by Ignat

      Buyan hi, and why not beg once they GIVE, remember how their ambassador behaved in Germany, and how now the Deutsche official is ashamed that they didn’t start supplying weapons earlier, they will soon fall on their knees in front of the Ukrainians (I’m talking about politicians) and why the lives of Ukrainians are important laughing

    And this is a more difficult task. Tanks and AFVs and small things are given away, because. they themselves do not believe in the Russian land offensive. At the same time, they understand that if they bring it to the handle, then missiles and planes can fly at targets west of 404. Especially since now the nuclear echelon has moved a good distance to their borders. So Nata has a choice which ass to cover, but as you know, her own ass is always dearer.

    I really hope that the restoration of Ukraine will not happen at our expense. Enough already pull this strap. We don't get too fat either. Ukrainians must be made to understand that they themselves are to blame for what is happening to their country. For centuries, they begged, howled, dust or plundered.

      That's what he's been saying for a long time. No preferences at all. Help - we can. But to rebuild the country for the fourth time at our expense, so that you dangle your paws and then show us again? And be sure to leave legitimate power with the president - and with all the debts of the outskirts. Zelu - do not kill! Let everything be taken away from him. And no Carpathians! So let them build their own "Eastern Switzerland", still feed these ... "All-Union health resort with high-mountain resorts" ...
