Ukrainian air defense will replenish the Rapid Ranger SCR for 1.7 billion pounds: which are capable of

"This will significantly increase our air defense and the ability to stop the enemy," Shmigal emphasized. Also this month, the British announced record assistance in the supply of UAV. 350 million pounds have been allocated, which will allow Ukraine to transfer 100,000 drones to Ukraine this year. The Prime Minister thanked the partners for his extraordinary support in the approaching of just peace.

Defense Express mentioned that in early March the Defense Ministry announced the financing of the UK supplying 5,000 Marlet missiles, also known as LMM - Lightweight Multirole Missile. Rapid Ranger and rockets are produced by Thales UK in Belfast, but in this case there is a prospect of production localization. It was reported that the United Kingdom intends to transfer technologies to Ukraine and create Ukrainian production facilities.

Rapidranger is a low range SPR, a light launch set on four LMM missiles or Starstreak with your own opto-tight station and/or radar. The weight of the installation is less than 500 kilograms, and this allows you to put it on a light wheel chassis. However, Rapidranger capabilities are closely related to the characteristics of LMM rockets: this missile is the principle of "laser trail", that is, LMM flies in a structured laser field.

This means that the rocket should be conducted to the purpose of destruction, but this is also compared to infrared guidance allows you to completely ignore the heat traps and not pay attention to the heat signature of the target. We will remind, the Minister of Digital Transformation of Ukraine Mikhail Fedorov said that the Ukrainian company developed a system of visual navigation, through which drones can work without GPS.
