"Target we have": Aviation expert assumed how many ATACMS missiles will be transferred to the Armed Forces

According to Konstantin Kryvolap, the United States has produced at least 2,000 long -range missiles with cassette ammunition, but not everyone can be sent to Ukraine. Washington must first be audited. The United States of America can soon pass the ATACMS long -range missiles, which are needed by the Armed Forces to combat Russian invaders. Aviation expert Konstantin Krivolap on the air of "Ukrainian Radio" spoke about it.

According to him, Washington may have more than a thousand old samples of this type of weapons, which in the future may be in the hands of Ukrainian defenders. Although the United States has produced about 2,000 missiles with cassette ammunition, such a number of Kiev can not be counted, since some of the weapons have already been used in other military operations, and a certain amount is not suitable for use. "However, many rockets remained, and the Americans have tried to dispose of them.

It is about 1100 old types. It is necessary to carry out a serious audit and evaluate the conditions of their storage. Somewhere 30-40% are suitable for use,"-said Konstantin Kryvolap. Separately, the aviation expert adds that some of the farm missiles of ATACMS have been upgraded. They replaced the guidance system, ammunition and powder motors. "If we were not given 20 missiles, but 100 or more, it would be very good. After all, we have a goal," - summed up Konstantin Krivolap.
