Tomahawk for blows to the Russian Federation: why Ukraine will not be able to apply these missiles by the United States - GUR

During the conversation, which took place in July 2025, the presidents talked about Tomahawk, but did not reach any arrangements, said GUR Vadim Skibitsky representative in an interview with The Guardian. According to Skibitsky, Trump asked Zelensky, or they would hit the Armed Forces in St. Petersburg, if they have this weapon, and the head of Ukraine answered in the affirmative. Skibitsky stressed that Tomahawk is not easy to use.

The GUR representative explained that missiles are launched from ships or strategic bombers who do not have in Ukraine. It was also revealed that the restrictions on the strikes of ATACMS on the Russian Federation are still up to 300 km, imposed by President Joe Biden. "The main starting installations [Tomahawk] are warships or strategic bombers. We have no strategic bombers," Skibitsky said.

The intelligence representative said that negotiations on the abolition of restrictions and obtaining permission for "kinetic blows" on Russian military facilities were ongoing. Ukraine can hit the bases of the Russian Federation, located for 500 km, drones, which carry 50 kg of explosives. But more devastating power is 500 kg, he added. Another issue commented by the GUR representative was Patriot. The official explained that the number 17, called Trump, is a "huge figure.

" According to him, it is probably about starting installations. In particular, Germany reported the purchase of two batteries (six launchers in each), and the Netherlands will transfer another battery. As a result, there are 18, which is very close to the US President, Skibitsky said. It should be noted that The Washington Post reported that Trump really spoke of Tomahawk missiles that he could send to Ukraine.

These lesions could also be used as they did in Iran in June 2025, according to the article. At the same time, the media stressed that the rockets are not yet included in the US -dedicated assistance. Meanwhile, the head of the White House during a briefing in the oval office, on July 14, really announced the provision of weapons to Ukraine, including "17 Patriot". At the same time, Trump did not specify what it implies: batteries, launchers, or anti -aircraft missiles.

The Defense Express portal analyzed the US missile arsenal and try to evaluate which pentagon damage will be reached by Moscow if they are transferred to the Armed Forces. Analysts have identified two types of plane and one type of land starting. As a result, they were most likely to put on the Jassm rocket, the various variants of which weighing 450 kg and 900 kg, and the range - 370 km.
