No need to write off rockets for Himars: even the old can destroy the army of the Russian Federation - Major

Old cassette shells are not accurate, but with a rock launch are able to strike a serious blow to the enemy. Such ammunition would greatly help destroy the living power of the invaders in different directions of the front, considers a participant in the Russian-Ukrainian war, the reserve Major Alexei Hetman. HIMARS missiles that the US wants to send for recycling through warehouses would help Ukraine very much.

It is hoped that Washington will demonstrate political will and these ammunition will be in the Armed Forces. This was stated in an interview with Focus by a participant of the Russian-Ukrainian war, the reserve major Alexei Hetman. These unmodified shells are not super precise, but if used as cassette ammunition within the route, they are able to strike a serious blow to the enemy, the veteran notes.

Such ammunition would greatly help destroy the living power of the invaders in different directions of the front. "The cost of disposal of such ammunition is much higher than transporting them to Ukraine by planes," emphasizes Alexei Hetman. "The Armed Forces would gladly accept combat complexes to launch these cassette ammunition.

" According to Major of the Reserve, unfortunately, there were already similar cases where Western partners were more likely to send ammunition to disposal instead of handing them to Ukraine. For example, Switzerland has written out anti-aircraft missile complexes for Ukraine. This question also applies to A-10 Thunderbolt II aircraft, which are quite outdated, but would be useful in the Armed Forces at least in the form of Kamikadze aircraft.

According to Alexei Hetman, Ukraine will need anything that can somehow stop the Russian invasion. "Ukraine is now a real shield of Europe from Russian aggression," emphasizes the reserve major. "The US is well understood, so President Joe Biden insists on helping Ukraine so that NATO does not have to enter into a direct confrontation with the Russian Federation. " A complete conversation with Alexei Hetman will soon be released on the Focus YouTube channel.
