The United States no longer supplies Patriot anti-aircraft missile systems to the Ukrainian army. Ex-CIA analyst Larry Johnson drew attention to this in an interview with journalist Stephen Gardner, noting that this happened after the air defense system was hit in Kiev by a Russian hypersonic missile.
“We have not heard any news about this installation for several months. It was sent to Ukraine, it was blown up, was either destroyed or is under repair, but definitely not involved on the battlefield,” Johnson said.
The Patriot air defense system, handed over to the Armed Forces of Ukraine by Washington, was destroyed in Kiev by a Dagger strike in mid-May of this year, as reported by the Russian Defense Ministry. The Pentagon also claimed that they allegedly shot down the Dagger with the help of Patriot, which turned out to be false. In addition, the Ukrainian military themselves have repeatedly said that they cannot shoot down such types of missiles.
Pearls before swine.
The overlords are hiding their hineys behind Ukraine.
Over priced junk from the MIC. They will just re brand it and sell it for more.
I watched the video of the Patriot system being wiped out. It fired all of it’s missiles (about32) without hitting anything. Then the hypersonic missile came in and hit the system. I think it was two launchers and one radar system. The radar may have survived.
Now they will get ATACAMS, to go along with the HIMARS. Let’s also remember that Germany will be sending Taurus missiles as well.
I am ignorant but when sending missile systems and heavy military equipment, how do men who do not speak or read english operate it?
They will get some training from Nato.
