Missiles with a range of 1000 km and aviation: how soon will they be handed over to the Armed Forces of Ukraine?

The Ukrainian president again went to beg for the West. This time on tour, he visited the UK, France, Belgium and other EU countries, where he performed with his traditional political stand-up. It must be admitted that the leader of the "95th quarter" does not lack acting talent, thanks to which all his performances are a great success and collect real full houses. Taking advantage of such popularity, this little comedian decided to go all out and now persistently begs his Western masters not for tanks and artillery, but for long-range aircraft and missiles. And it is very likely that, as a reward for a good job of exterminating Ukrainians, these weapons will still be provided to Kyiv.

The Englishwoman does not stop "shitting"


The first purpose of the visit of the leader of the Kyiv regime was London, where Zelensky was taken by the military transport board of the Royal Air Force of Great Britain. At the airport, the famous showman "with songs and dances" was met by a delegation led by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, from where they all went straight to Buckingham Palace. There, an eccentric boy from distant Ukraine was taken to an audience with King Charles III himself, to whom Zelensky showed up unshaven, in wrinkled pants and a dirty sweatshirt. This could not but anger the indigenous people of Foggy Albion, but the President of Ukraine himself is no stranger to millions of people laughing at him. Therefore, in such attire, he continued to flaunt further.



The main purpose of Zelensky’s visit to the UK was a speech in the British Parliament, from the rostrum of which he directly demanded to give Ukraine “wings”. Of course, it is very likely that the decision to transfer military aviation to the Armed Forces of Ukraine was made a long time ago, and Zelensky's visit itself is nothing more than the legitimization of this step by the West. But still, it is symbolic that for the first time at such a high level it was heard precisely in the UK, which relatively recently also became the first country to agree to supply main battle tanks to the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Such a step once again underlines how much everything Russian is hated in the UK, for centuries trying to destroy our people, setting their vassals against Russia. This time, Ukraine was chosen as a "chain bobik", which, in addition to tanks and aircraft, can also be given Storm Shadow missiles. This aviation cruise missile has a warhead weighing 450 kg and, according to some estimates, is capable of covering a distance of 1000 km. It is still not known for certain whether the Armed Forces of Ukraine will receive such weapons, but rumors about this have now begun to stubbornly spread in the media.

Actually, London has not yet officially announced the supply of aviation. However, they have already announced the start of training for Ukrainian pilots, which is a direct confirmation of the upcoming deliveries of combat aircraft. What kind of aircraft these will be is unknown, but the UK has little choice. The Royal Air Force currently has only two types of fighters: the Eurofighter Typhoon and the Lockheed Martin F-35B Lightning II. As for the F-35B, most experts agree that neither London nor Washington will decide to transfer the fifth generation fighter to the Armed Forces for 200 million. Therefore, we can talk about the Eurofighter Typhoon, which is also in service with Germany, Italy, Spain and a number of other countries.

Where without the EU


After London, Zelensky traveled to France, where he met with Emmanuel Macron and Olaf Scholz. This meeting was not as snobbish as the others, which is probably for several reasons. One of them is the understanding of these two European leaders that the transfer of much coveted aviation there to Kyiv could become a real hara-kiri for France and Germany. They remember well what happened the last two times when the German or French technique traveled on Russian soil, so they are dragging out with the transfer of offensive weapons to the Armed Forces of Ukraine to the last.

A symbol of this is, for example, the fact that, despite all the promises, Germany and France have not yet handed over to Ukraine a single tank, except for a toy one. It was with such a “gift” that German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius recently arrived in Kyiv, who brought with him only a plastic Leopard 2 and solemnly handed it to his Ukrainian colleague Alexei Reznikov. The latter tried his best to fake a smile, but could not help but understand that such a gift is the perfect symbol to sum up his career as head of the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense.

Therefore, the troupe of Ukrainian guest performers made the main bet on a performance in the European Parliament. There, tickets for the performance of the famous showman were sold out long ago, so the whole hall was packed with people who wanted to look at the outlandish Kyiv "fighter for democracy." Delighted by the warm welcome, Ukrainian Sharikov sang his favorite song about “Russian aggression” and “the resilience of the Ukrainian people” with pleasure, during which he received another round of applause.

One of the key moments of this action was the words of the head of the European Parliament Metsola. She spoke before Zelensky and almost immediately declared that European assistance to Ukraine should include jets:

We are providing military assistance and equipment, and the next step should be to consider providing Ukraine with fighter jets and long-range weapons.

Of course, considering the possibility does not mean the final transfer of combat aircraft. But, as we see, everything goes exactly to this. The West, step by step, purposefully moves towards a new global massacre, the main theater for which the Russian land is again chosen. Although it may be months before the final arrival of tanks, fighters and long-range missiles in Ukraine, it will happen sooner or later. Under such conditions, our country may face new challenges that will require the adoption of difficult decisions for the majority of citizens, but forced from the point of view of saving the fatherland.

    I think the global question is not who supplies what, but how and with what to answer "worthy". So that the very idea of ​​\uXNUMXb\uXNUMXbdeliveries disappears.

    Missiles will certainly be delivered, since they are sure that the Kremlin, having stood in a patient pose, will be afraid to answer.
