The world's most powerful air defense system has been built around Kyiv, but there is one problem - The Times
The world's most powerful air defense system has been created around Kyiv. It consists, in particular, of Patriot, Nasams and IRIS-T SAMs.
This was revealed by a colonel of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, who wished to remain anonymous, The Times reports. Ukraine must continue to improve its defense against enemy attacks.
"Currently around Kyiv we have the most powerful air defense system in the world. And in fact throughout history... These are Patriot, Nasams, German IRIS-T, S-300, French Crotale. The Russians have realized that beating your head against the wall is pointless," he said. .
However, according to the Ukrainian military officer, ammunition for defense against missile attacks is running out. If the West does not increase the supply of weapons - this winter may become heavier than the previous one.
"You cannot plan a war with an annual production of 150-160 Patriot missiles. We used them in a month... If we wait until the fall, until mid-October, they will hit the energy infrastructure again. There's no doubt about it. This winter will be even harder than the previous one," the colonel summarized.
Recall, the Russian Federation is likely to resume attacks on energy facilities in the coming winter. Current blackouts are likely to be, but the situation may be better than last winter.
As reported OBOZREVATEL, in December 2022, the authorities of Kyiv were almost ready to announce the complete evacuation of residents of the capital. At that time, the Russian occupiers massively shelled the objects of the energy system.
