"Before that was only Afghanistan." As the Ukrainian military conduct Western weapons to check with a real war - an interview

Ukrainian artillerymen work with the French SAU Caesar (photo: the General Staff of the Armed Forces) Andriy Tsaplienko, a military journalist, told Radio NV that the Armed Forces of Ukraine in fact conduct a fighting of Western weapons in a real war, because earlier such weapons were used only in small operations.

- I also pay attention to the reaction of the local people and saw a video where during these night blows on the Antonov Bridge, the residents of Kherson comment and say that Russian air defense works, but it will not be able to do anything against our missiles. - The question is that our air defense can do nothing against the reactive volley fire systems. The systems that hit the bridge were, apparently, HIMARS, a combination of RSLS and high -precision weapons.

And against the RSSU, as far as I know and understand, there is no means of air defense. It is impossible to work against a volley, a whole package of rockets. They will collect one, they will collect two, but their whole package. Likewise, our air defense, we will say, can do nothing with those hurricanes and tornadoes, which, for example, firing Kharkiv. But the key difference is that they beat these systems on residential quarters, in homes, in places where civilians live.
