Frankensam Project: Hybrid air defense is already operating in Ukraine - Kamyshin (video)

According to him, hybrid air defense systems are a quick solution and five such projects have already been developed. So, if the development of a complex defense complex takes about 3-4 years, then "hybrid" solutions we get already. Oleksandr Kamyshin stressed that Ukraine is creating a new market where partners can go, because Ukraine can strengthen its air defense in a short time, and they can introduce their systems in new markets.

It is about renewing Soviet air defense systems in Ukraine in the joint shock of Frankensam. In particular, parts of the western complexes integrate into the old systems. Some of the air defense projects are put on US missiles, but also integrates entire US launchers in the air defense complexes. Kamyshin said that the first updated air defense complexes were already used in Ukraine. In addition, other complexes will arrive on a monthly basis.

In October, foreign media wrote that the project provides for the strengthening of Ukrainian air defense. It was about the modernization of the Soviet Buk's installation and creating a new Sidewinder missile system. It was reported that both installations had to come to Ukraine autumn. Also, within the project, it is planned to upgrade the HAWK systems that are removed from weapons, but for which there are many ammunition.

As The New York Times wrote in October, Ukraine was ready to send 17 such Beech settings, but in America, only five systems were able to upgrade in America. Thanks to this project, it was possible to obtain additional tools that will fill in critical gaps in the air defense of Ukraine. We will remind, according to military expert Mikhail Zhirokhov, for the year Ukraine increased the number of complexes of air defense by 2-2. 5 times. Despite this, the number of systems is not enough.
