11.04.2024 - 11:08Ukrainian volunteer Taras Chmut explained why American Patriot anti-aircraft missile complexes cannot cover Kharkiv.
He cited reasons in an interview with Ukrainian media.
“For example, Kharkiv, which is within the range of reactive volley fire systems, cannot be covered by Patriot because it will be destroyed, oversaturating its channel capacity (the number of targets that can be simultaneously engaged) with various means. The distance is actually very important,” Chmut explained.
It is worth noting that in March, the Russian Ministry of Defense claimed to have struck a Patriot complex in the Kharkiv region, but Ukraine did not confirm this.
Meanwhile, yesterday, the EU’s chief diplomat, Josep Borrell, stated that Europe has about a hundred Patriot air defense batteries, but partners are not providing Ukraine with even seven of them.
Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba announced that he wants to obtain additional idle Patriot air defense batteries from the West and will no longer ask politely but firmly. Following Borrell, he also said that his team had identified over 100 available Patriots.
