HIMARS can hit targets at a distance of up to 80 kilometers, which is greater than the range of Russian volley fire systems.

The United States has announced the delivery of four systems, discussing a plan to hand over four more.

The Ukrainian military has been trained in the use of HIMARS systems.

In addition, the United States has promised to provide Ukraine with intelligence for strikes using rocket-propelled grenade launchers.

Meanwhile, the Ambassador of Ukraine to Germany Andrei Melnik said that Ukraine has signed a contract with a German manufacturer for the supply of modern air defense system IRIS-T.

"I am proud that I and our team have managed to overcome insane political resistance and, in close behind-the-scenes cooperation with the manufacturer, Diehl Defense, have won a contract for the purchase of the first such system at a cost of 178 million euros, at the expense of the German government." said Miller.

The upgraded IRIS-T SL surface-to-air missiles were developed for the Bundeswehr and approved for use in 2017.
