Ukraine will receive even more long-range weapons from the Western allies compared to the existing ones. F-16 fighters are expected to be delivered with missiles with a range of 300-500 kilometers. About this said commander of the United Forces of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Lieutenant General Serhiy Naev.
"In further packages of military aid, Ukraine expects F-16 aircraft and missiles with a range of 300-500 kilometers," — he said.
According to him, this will allow the Defense Forces of Ukraine to achieve even greater success on the battlefield and free our territory from the enemy.
As Nayev pointed out, with the appearance in the summer of 2022 of the M142 HIMARS rocket launcher systems, and later the M270 MLRS, the enemy suffered even more significant losses in the logistical support of his forward units and was forced to move his field warehouses and control points to a distance of more than 100 kilometers from front edge
"This led to an increase in the logistical "shoulder" of transporting ammunition and material resources, the complication of troop management, the loss of offensive capabilities and the transition to forced defense (and eventually to a "gesture of goodwill" from the right bank of the Dnieper and evacuation from Kherson)". said Naev.
The general also noted that with the entry into service of the PATRIOT anti-aircraft missile complex in April 2023, Ukraine's anti-missile shield has been strengthened even more by increasing the range of destruction of aerodynamic targets at a distance of up to 150 km.
