"This is definitely a threat": rockets from DPRK will complicate work for air defense for Ukraine - expert (video)

Military observer Denis Popovich reported that an increase in the number of missiles that the enemy could launch is a challenge even for Ukrainian regions covered with Patriot and SAMP-T. During the shelling of Ukraine, Russia is likely to use the North Korean missiles KN-23. Their quality is quite low, but in the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation there can be many. About it told "Channel 24" military observer Denis Popovich.

According to him, this is a real challenge for the Ukrainian military. "From a military point of view, this is definitely a threat. Remember where the ballistic, winged X-22 missiles flew, which also cannot be confused ", - said Popovich. According to him, an increase in the number of missiles that the enemy can start is a challenge even for Ukrainian regions covered by Patriot and SAMP-T. These complexes can knock goals, but the Russians complicate their work due to the effect of massiveness.

So they want to collapse the dome of defense. In addition, according to Popovich, there is a threat to areas that are not covered by Western systems. In any case, the ballistic rocket is very fast. It is quite problematic to intercept it. This requires special equipment. "Unfortunately, North Korea will increase Russia's deliveries because these are totalitarian regimes. They can solve everything with one lap of the pen," the expert said.
