Military aid from Great Britain
On November 22, the Daily Telegraph reported that Great Britain had sent an improved model
of the Brimstone 2 high-tech missile with a laser homing system
to Ukraine .
The flight range of this missile is twice as long as that of the previous version.
It is noted that Brimstone 2 missiles are usually launched from fighter jets, but the Ukrainian military uses modified trucks as a launch platform.

three Sea King helicopters and 10,000
artillery shells to Ukraine.
10 Ukrainian crews
for Sea King helicopters
were also trained in Britain .
