Ukraine received ATACMS missiles: ISW named the consequences for the Russian army

Analysts have stated that Ukrainian troops have ATACMS missiles with cassette warheads that can affect objects over a wide area. The Russians will have to adapt. The United States handed over ATACMS cassettes to Ukraine. Now the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation will have to dispose of its aviation and take some of the aircraft to the aerodromes away from the front line. Analytics of the Institute of War Study have reported.

The new report of October 17 states that Russian troops raised helicopters from the airfield in the occupied Berdyansk during the beginning of the Counter -offshore of the Armed Forces in 2023. This gave a strong effect because they attacked Ukrainian mechanized units. Analysts noted that with the help of accurate long -range missiles of the Armed Forces could strike on separate air equipment of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation.

However, Ukrainian troops now have ATACMS missiles with cassette warheads that can affect objects over a wide area. According to experts, Russian propagandists stated that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation were able to adapt their airfields to protect themselves from HIMARS. However, ATACMS is a new rocket threat to Russian aviation.

"The Russian military consistently demonstrates that they can adapt to new Ukrainian shock opportunities, but only after the initial and clear losses are suffered," the ISW said. We will remind that on October 17 President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky confirmed the receipt of Ukraine atACMS. According to him, the missiles provided to Kiev have already shown themselves as best as possible.
