Ukraine hopes to get effective air defense that shoots down missiles/General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine
The Russians ruthlessly fire missiles at peaceful Ukrainian cities. Therefore, we need reliable air defense.
People's Deputy Fyodor Venislavsky, on the air of the national telethon, spoke about working with partners and allies to transfer effective air defense. There are successes in the agreements, channel 24 informs.
It is necessary that air defense shoot down missiles
According to Venislavsky, partners and allies announced that in In the near future, we will be given medium and long-range air defense systems. This is exactly what we need.
The main thing is that these air defense systems will include missiles that can perform the function of anti-missile defense. After all, it is very important for us to shoot down missiles, because even the old Soviet-style systems that we have can destroy aircraft.
Our soldiers of the air defense troops demonstrate very high skill. This is despite the fact that our complexes are not adapted to shoot down missiles, but we use them to shoot them down. If we get those complexes that will be aimed specifically at missile defense, then this will significantly reduce the risk of attacks on civilian targets. – explained the People's Deputy.
According to him, the president, the Minister of Defense, the Verkhovna Rada and everyone who can constantly work on this issue.
“I think that we have already broken through a certain wall and there is hope that in the near future we can get those systems that will create such an “iron dome” like the Israeli one. Then this will not allow missiles to hit civilian targets,” Venislavsky assured.
