President George W. Bush:
“American and coalition forces are in the early stages of military operations to disarm Iraq, to free its people, and to defend the world from grave danger.”
Ukrainian instructors were shocked by the reckless use of air defense systems in the Gulf countries.
According to Ukrainian military personnel, multiple missiles are often launched at a single target — up to eight Patriot interceptors costing around $3 million each — even when dealing with relatively simple threats.
There have been cases where SM-6 missiles, costing about $6 million, were used to destroy inexpensive drones, even though the “Shahed” drones themselves cost roughly $70,000.
In interviews, Ukrainian specialists emphasized that their approach is based on efficiency: using the minimum number of missiles per target whenever possible and avoiding the unnecessary use of expensive interceptors.
“I have no idea what our allies were watching for four years while we were at war,” said Ukrainian military instructors currently in the Middle East.
Notably, in the first 96 hours of operations against Iran, the U.S. and its allies used about 5,200 munitions of 35 types, including 168 Tomahawk missiles in 100 hours. Over 12 days, total costs reached $16.5 billion.
According to President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Middle Eastern countries launched more than 800 Patriot interceptors in just three days. Ukraine, over four years of war, has received just over 600 such interceptors.
Rheinmetall CEO Armin Papperger noted that, at this pace, the U.S. could run out of air defense missiles within a month.
It turns out that in the conflict with Iran, Washington’s main challenge is not finances but production capacity. The U.S. defense industry cannot rapidly scale output because:
• missile production can take up to 36 months;
• supply chains depend on critical components largely sourced from China;
• there is outdated equipment and a shortage of skilled labor.
The current ammunition shortage poses risks to other priorities, including support for Ukraine and the deterrence of China.
Putleril ja porgandil on sama mure. Ei oodanud sellist vastupanu.
Teine mure on neil ka sama - ei saa tagasi ka tõmmata kuna seda on raske kommunikeerida miks nad siis hakkama ei saanud.
Ma tegelikult imestan et Ukraina üldse USA-d aitab kui USA nad üle lasi.
....ja lõpuks on ukraina mitte ainult euroopa vaid kogu vaba maailma eest peksul. fakt on see,et usal neid vajalikke asju kuskil ladudes veel on. lisaks võiks see, et tal on olemas selline moodsa sõja jaoks vajalik vastumeede olla muule maailmale nn eisukoha kujundamiseks.
Porgand ja Vova on ühe klubi mehed. juhtumisi peaks üks neist samas heade poolel olema. Porgand läks iraani pedrodollarisse murdma sama hoogsalt nagu vova kolme päevaga kiievisse.. valus. kahe debiiliku pärast on taevasse lastud ilmselt mitmete aastate energia.. _________________ Kontrollitud ja hooldatud sülerid: https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/profile/100087345405856 või https://www.yaga.ee/mox-fulder küsi akut, klaviatuuri ja laadijat.
