Will these offensive weapons really supplies the black army?

Author:Global Times Time:2022.09.16

The US media recently broke the news that the weapon demand list proposed by Ukraine to the United States includes dozens of offensive weapon systems, of which the "Army Tactical Missile System" (ATACMS) with a range of 300 kilometers can be launched through the "Hamas" system. Essence The Russian Ambassador to the United States Antonov warned on the 14th that the consequence of the United States with the "Army Tactical Missile System" with a maximum range of 300 kilometers was that the United States would directly involve military conflicts with Russia. Why does this weapon make Russia so vigilant, and in addition to this weapon, what offensive weapons may be provided to Ukraine in the future?

Why is this missile named Russian Ambassador

Recently, the Wall Street Journal reported that Ukraine has established a new weapon list, which includes 29 weapon systems, including ATACMS missiles, which can hit targets 300 kilometers away. At the same time, Ukraine also requires the United States to provide the "Hamas" multi -tube rocket gun system, tank, drone, artillery system, "fish fork" anti -ship missile and 2,000 rocket artillery shells.

Russia's "Newspaper" reported on the 15th that Russia's ambassador to the United States Antonov warned on the 14th that if Kyiv obtained the "Army Tactical Missile System" from the United States, Russian cities and industrial transportation infrastructure may enter its scope. The Ukraine will not hesitate to use this missile to fight against the Donbas area. At the same time, Antonov said that even if Washington meets all the requirements of Ukraine's supply of weapons, it will not lead to a real change.

Why does the Russian ambassador directly named the "Army Tactical Missile System"? Military expert Zhang Xuefeng said in an interview with the Global Times reporter on the 15th that the latest range of ATACMS missiles is about 300 kilometers. If the United States provides such missiles to Ukraine, Ukraine can crack down on some original "Haimas" guided rocket bombs that cannot be hit. The important goal of the battle in the battle will bring greater trouble and difficulties to the Russian army. For example, Air Force Base, Advanced Command, large ammunition library, and even crack down on some military and industrial goals in Russia. Therefore, Russia's strong response to this is inevitable.

However, Zhang Xuefeng also emphasized that Wufang has repeatedly requested related model missiles to the United States, but the United States has never provided it. Because this missile is more expensive, even if it is provided to Ukraine in the future, it may provide an earlier and closer version, and the number will not be too much.

Russia's "Free Media" reported on the 14th that given that Kyiv is getting more and more destructive weapons from Western sponsors, it cannot completely rule out the possibility of the United States who will also provide long -range missiles for the "Hamas" system. Maybe they will be handed over to Ukraine. The United States has provided a high -precision 155mm artillery for M777 and M109 howitzers. Russian military expert Yuri Knotov said that according to the leader of the "Donetsk People's Republic", the ATACMS missile has been in Ukraine. Americans just don't want to talk about it. In fact, the United States only limits their use, and they can track what the purpose may be used and whether they are used.

Russian media are worried that the United States will provide fighters

Although the fighter jets were not mentioned directly in the list of "offensive operations" that broke the news of the US media, Russian experts and media believed that Americans may be liberalizing restrictions on providing advanced fighters to Wu.

The British "Financial Times" quoted its source of news in the United States that Washington and its allies are discussing the possibility of delivering multi -purpose fighters and air defense systems to Ukraine in the middle and long term.

Earlier, the Deputy Minister of Defense, Corin Carl, said when he said to the fourth -generation fighter to Kyiv that the fighter was still considering, but it had not made the final decision.

According to the Russian Federal News Agency reported on the 14th, the United States is discussing the feasibility of offering fighter and air defense systems to Ukraine with its allies. Russian military expert Alexese Aprogov said that the West has actually canceled all the imagined restrictions on the supply of modern weapons for the Ukrainian armed forces, which will only lead to a new round of conflict upgrade. Before the start of Russia's special military operations, the United States and Europe mainly provided Ukraine with small weapons, anti -tank missiles, and various defensive equipment. After the Russian combat operation began, the West began to supply heavy equipment (tanks, armored soldiers, etc.) to Kyiv. Then it turned into a heavy artillery, which is now talking about using the modern air defense missile system to equip the Ukraine. The last stage will be that Western attempts to use modern aviation weapons -drone, fighter, and ATACMS system equipment.

However, Zhang Xuefeng did not agree with this. He believes that there are more problems involved in fighter jets in the West. If the NATO standard F-16 and F-15 need Ukraine to change the training system and guarantee system, the project is large, and the price of the fighter itself is more expensive, it is estimated that it is difficult to provide in a short time.

Some Russian experts believe that to drive these Western fighters, it takes a long time to train the black pilots. In addition, as a very expensive equipment, fighter aircraft will damage the reputation of the US fighter once it is shot down.

Air defense missiles are also options

According to public information, the United States plans to provide Ukraine with a multi -range "National Advanced Missile System" (NASAMS).This air defense missile system mainly uses AIM-120, AIM-9 air-to-air missiles launched on the ground.Compared with the existing air defense system of the Ukraine, the Russian Air Force's actions will be further restricted.Moreover, the radar technology of the air defense system is relatively advanced, and it will also bring new troubles to the Russian army's non -successful air defense suppression combat.Regarding whether other models will be provided, Zhang Xuefeng believes that there are fewer large and medium -sized air defense missile models in the United States. NASAMS is a model that is more in line with Ukraine national conditions.EssenceAnd the entire system is huge and expensive.Therefore, the United States does not rule out the possibility of adding NASAMS to the Ukraine in the future.▲
