ATCMS strikes forced the Russian Federation to use less helicopters against the Armed Forces - Danilov (video)
The Russians have now begun to use less helicopters for attacks after strikes of ATACMS rockets in Lugansk and Berdyansk. The attacks of combat helicopters in Ukrainian troops have decreased. The use of American production missiles on the Crimean grouping of occupiers was influenced. Much of the helicopters in the Crimea, according to Danilov, is now not on the temporarily occupied peninsula. "ATACMS work and will continue to work," he summed up.
He also responded to the words of NATO Stoltenberg Secretary General that the Russian Federation's war against Ukraine had exhausted the Alliance's reserves. He expressed confidence that the military block will have the ability to increase production. According to him, if the partners meet their obligations, there will be no problems with the supply of weapons to Ukraine. "I am more than sure that it will be," Danilov added.
At the Center for Strategic Communications of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on October 17, they stated that the forces of Ukraine at night had struck the helicopters of the Armed Forces of Russia and the equipment of aerodromes in the occupied territories. The strikes were struck by airports that are controlled by Russian invaders in Berdyansk and Lugansk.
On October 22, the OSINT Analytics from the Dutch project of Oryx reported that the Armed Forces with the help of ATACMS missiles destroyed nine Russian helicopters at aerodromes in the occupied cities of Berdyansk and Lugansk. In total, the long-range artillery of Ukraine destroyed seven helicopters of KA-52 "Alligator", as well as two Mi-8 helicopters. 15 other helicopters-eight KA-52 and seven Mi-8-were damaged.
