Asraam missiles have been upgraded in three months by royal Air Force engineers and MBDA missile systems. They can now be fired from ground complexes. The head of the UK government, Kir Starmer, stated that for the first time in history, a new package of military assistance was paid for Ukraine from the interest received from frozen Russian assets. About $ 95. 3 million was allocated due to the government scheme of extraordinary acceleration of ERA income.

The new military aid package is part of the largest UK's annual obligation to Ukraine for more than $ 6 billion. It will go by $ 2. 18 billion in March, which received more than 5,000 missiles for air defense systems. A separate investment of almost $ 480 million will go to an increase in drones ten times, emphasizes the publication.

The development of ASRAM's air defense systems from Earth was known in the summer of 2022. The Ukrainian military studied their launches in the UK. The Supacat chassis has shown the efficiency in the destruction of nearby goals at 90%. Asraam missiles have a self -alienation system with a large deviation from a line of sighting, which helps it to capture the heat signature of the target and hit it at different angles.

The mass of the Asraam rocket is about 90 kg, and the fragmentation warhead is 10 kg. The maximum flight speed of the rocket exceeds 3 Mach and the range is more than 25 km. We will remind, the Israeli military showed the work of laser weapons Iron Beam, which destroys missiles and drones.
