Modern IRIS-T air defense systems will try to be integrated into the Ukrainian air defense system.
Ukrainian specialists and the military themselves are already engaged in this today.
Military expert Oleg Zhdanov said this on his YouTube channel.
According to him, the IRIS-T system can see and track one and a half thousand targets at a distance of 280-285 km.
Therefore, the integration of these systems into Ukrainian air defense will bring real benefits to the Armed Forces.
"Attempts will be made to integrate the radar station of the IRIS-T system into the air defense system (Ukraine - ed.). This station can detect targets within a radius of 280-285 km, and it can strike from only 40 km. If it is included in the general information exchange system , then this RLS can also target S-300 complexes, which have a range of up to 200 km to hit air targets. This is what our military science and our military are currently engaged in," says Zhdanov.
We will remind that Germany has already transferred the IRIS-T SLM anti-aircraft missile system to Ukraine.
This information was confirmed by the Minister of Defense Oleksiy Reznikov. According to him, the NASAMS medium-range anti-aircraft missile systems from the USA are also "already on their way".
Aid to Ukraine in the format of "Rammstein"
The defense ministers of the NATO countries held the sixth meeting in the "Ramstein" format in Brussels, dedicated to military aid to Ukraine.
The West supported
the provision of air and missile defense systems to Ukraine
after
Russian missile strikes on Ukrainian cities
and energy infrastructure.
In addition, the German government previously decided to provide Ukraine with four
IRIS-T anti-aircraft missile systems
, the first of which has already arrived at its destination.
Also, British Defense Minister Ben Wallace said that London
will provide missiles
for NASAMS air defense systems to Ukraine.
They can shoot down cruise missiles launched by Russia.
