Mystery of Dut on Janka: How Ukraine got and lightly applied ATACMS missiles

Defense Express experts explain why the use of ATACMS missiles behind Janka has turned out so unexpected and effective. The rockets were simply put secret, and they were used lightly so that the enemy did not have time to react as reported by Western media, the US ATACMS long -range missiles sent to Ukraine "last week".

US President Joe Biden in mid -February this year secretly made the decision to put Ukraine at once 100 "new lads", as well as an unnamed number of cassette ammunition - these missiles are one of the defense assistance packages for Ukraine for $ 300 million, which was about It is known in March this year. It is probably about ATACMS missiles with a range of 190 miles (more than 300 km).

The transfer of these missiles to Ukraine in its social network X account (earlier Twitter) also confirmed the US Ambassador to Ukraine Bridge Brink. At the same time, as noted in The New York Times with reference to one of the unnamed US officials, Ukraine's defense forces by these rockets struck by Air Base Dzhankoy in temporarily occupied Crimea, where, in particular, the C-400 SCC was destroyed, as well as "in Russian troops in the port city of Berdyansk.

" As noted in the publication, these missiles were sent to Ukraine "last week", and since a blow to the air base in the Crimea was hit on the night of April 17, it is a really lightning implementation of the probably pre -prepared operation to destroy the anti -aircraft missile system important for racists. "These blows have once again proved that Ukraine can have combat victories if it is provided with the right tools.

Ukraine can put any Russian object in Crimea, including critical compositions of ammunition and fuel. Imagine if they had been These missiles two years ago, " - said one of the senators Roger, a Republican at the Armed Forces Committee. At the same time, the mystery with the transfer of long -range missiles is explained quite simply - it was necessary that the Armed Forces could be unexpectedly hit by the racists and that the enemy could not at least adapt to the likely blows of these missiles.

We will remind that Ukraine has already received a long -range ATACMS missiles from the United States last year and successfully used them from HIMARS or M270 for blows to the Russian occupation army, but then we were handed over by a rocket with a range of 165 km. Also we will remind that ATACMS missiles are in a new US defense package for $ 1 billion. The author expresses a personal opinion that may not coincide with the editorial position.
