Joint Production with the United States: Which air defense systems can do with Ukraine

The minestruthm has announced the results of the collaboration by the end of 2023, so it is most likely not about the complex complexes of Patriot or NASAMS, but about simpler UAV systems. The Minister of Strategic Industry Alexander Kamyshin announced the beginning of joint production of Ukraine's air defense, together with the United States. Defense Express suggested which systems could be discussed. The joint production of anti -air systems should show the result by the end of the year.

According to Kamyshin, the works are already underway, and he also said about "other complex system things" that will be implemented in the coming years. The publication suggests that if the result is by the end of 2023, then it is not possible to talk about complex anti-aircraft missile complexes by Patriot or NASAMS. Therefore, on the background, more and more drones-Kamikadze will probably begin to produce UAV systems in Ukraine.

In September, the occupiers launched more than 500 drones-Kamikadze Shahd-136. One of the options can be advanced Cortex Typhon Kongsberg or Slinger's combat module from EOS. But in this matter, everything rests on technological cycles. The Australian company plans to hand over the first party to Ukraine from 10 Slinger modules to the end of 2023. At the same time, Ukraine or states were made in April. That is, 10 months will spend 8 months on 10 cars.

Therefore, the United States can produce even easier Victor systems with Kiev, a machine -gun with a Victor - a machine gun with a thermal imaging sight and other systems for trapping drones. The third option is the integration of Western anti -aircraft missiles into Soviet air defense systems. The works will be carried out in Ukraine, because it is impossible to remove complexes from combat duty. It is also possible that the improvised launchers will install Western missiles with infrared.

This option has already been implemented with AIM-132 Asraam missiles in cooperation with the United Kingdom. Whatever the options are implemented, the publication states that the main thing is that collaboration is ongoing. We will remind, on October 4 in the United States reported that Joe Biden was preparing a great speech on further support of Ukraine. The media also wrote that Germany plans to transfer additional air defense complexes to Ukraine for the protection of the Odessa region.
