Strikes on Shahaneda Manufacturers and Missile Engines: How to Hold Russia "Tomagawa"
The current of the non -nuclear strategic containment package in the form of winged Tomahawk missiles is one of the secret points. But The New York Times (NYT) has declassified the data, which caused the anger of the Ukrainian leader. The interlocutors of the publication consider Zelensky's request "absolutely impossible.
" Missiles are able to impress targets at a distance of more than 2400 kilometers, which is 8 times larger than the ATCMS missiles, which are in the Armed Forces in limited quantities. "You see what is happening in the media right now. They said that Ukraine wants or wanted to get a lot of missiles, such as" Tomahawk ". . . How to understand these messages? This means that there is nothing confidential between partners," the President said.
Ukraine, according to Western officials, has not presented convincing arguments on the use of missiles. The list of goals in Russia is much exceeding the number of shells that the US or any other ally could put, without risking stocks for potential problems in the Middle East and Asia. It is worth noting that not everyone share the opinion of NYT interlocutors. Some US military consider the idea quite realistic.
According to a leading researcher of the State Museum of Aviation of Ukraine, Avayexpert Valery Romanenko, the main purpose of American missiles was to become Russian manufacturers of long-range weapons. The most critical for the Russian Security Service-enterprises in Ela Labuz, produced by drones-Kamikadze "Shahaned", and factories of NGO "ODK-Saturn" in the city of Rybinsk, Yaroslavl region, where engines for winged missiles are made.
The problem is that there is no own carrier carriers or submarine for start-ups in Ukraine. Therefore, special Typhon land launches are required. "Missiles from containers are launched on the principle of" shot and forgot. " Romanenko critically evaluates the chances of supplying Ukraine to Tomahawk. The likelihood of such a result is a maximum of 1%, as the US has already come up with formal reasons for refusing to provide the Armed Forces with winged AGM-158 Jassm missiles.
"Tomagavka" is a much more devastating weapon that is able to change the course of a full -scale war. "Russia cannot beat military enterprises in Europe or the US, but we would beat on the Russian rear. It is possible to deprive them of the key factories of the MIC and then the crisis of production will begin. There are no rocket engines - no missiles, logic is obvious. It is a victory in the war," - emphasizes the analyst. Japan was the last buyer of rockets.
On January 18, 2024, the country's Defense Ministry signed an agreement with the United States to purchase 400 Tomahawk missiles and 14 management systems. Delivery period - until October 2027. There were 200 units of the most modern version of Block V and the previous one - Block IV. Both modifications have a range of targets up to 1600 kilometers, they are launched from ships. The total price of the contract is $ 1. 7 billion, with one Tomahawk missile in a comprehensive agreement costs $ 4.
25 million. It is also worth considering the cost of ground starting settings of Typhon. Australia in 2023 bought 200 Tomahawk missiles for $ 4. 16 million apiece to run them from the AEGIS Class HOBART rocket launchers with 48 Mark 41 launch mines. However, the situation with the purchase of Tomahawk missiles is more difficult than just giving money for them. Since 1983, their only owner except the United States has been the United Kingdom.
In 2023, Japan and Australia were granted permission for their purchase, and the Netherlands are still in line, although they are ready to pay any money. The political scientist of the Ukrainian Institute of the Future Yuri Romanenko considers the history of Tomahawk missiles since the beginning is impossible. Partners of Ukraine will clearly not go to supply of this type of weapons, which have repeatedly proved stories with requests of long -range missiles.
Another state disagreement to Tomahawk in the future may be an option to justify the losses of territories in the Donbass for the military-political leadership of Ukraine, the expert added. "From our General Staff" leave "data of drones manufacturers and will we be transmitted to US strategic weapons?" - he asks the question. Romanenko refers to the "drain" of secret information about enterprises that produce UAV for the Armed Forces. The editor -in -chief of the portal "Censor.
NET" Yuriy Butusov recently revealed a presentation on the production of drones for the Armed Forces on the Russian site, which in 2023 created the General Directorate of Unmanned Systems of the General Staff. It contained data what UAV models produce, types of ammunition and accessories for them, as well as details, phones and names of executives, addresses and names of manufacturers. "It is illogical to ask for such weapons, no one will give it that it was clear.
It is a nuclear weapon carrier, as well as German Taurus. The same with the requests of Kiev to give a Thaad air defense system (a complex for high -rise intake interception of medium -range missiles, - ed. ). The focus earlier wrote how the Israeli Air Force was equipped with an F-16i fighter by four Rampagh ballistic missiles. Such shells allow the tile to beat for remote and highly protected purposes with minimal risks, including facilities in Iran.
