Fox News Network reported that Blinken said that he must defeat the Ukrainian army in Ukraine. Blinken said: "No matter what short-term tactical results the Russian side may achieve in Ukraine, the Russian army will eventually fail." British Foreign Secretary Tras also said that the Russian army must fail.
At the same time, the United States and britain decided that they would supply Ukraine with more weapons. There are US media reports that the United States and the United Kingdom may assist Ukraine with more advanced weapons.
In the Arsenal of The United States and Britain, there are also two kinds of advanced individual weapons, which have extremely strong battlefield power. The United States, Britain and NATO did not dare to confront Russia directly in Ukraine, so they did not dare to assist Ukrainian warplanes, large and medium-sized missiles, tanks and rocket launchers. The weapons supplied to Ukraine are basically individual weapons.
Up to now, the United States and Britain have aided Ukraine worth $1.4 billion in javelins, Stingers and other stand-alone anti-tank missiles and anti-aircraft missiles. British Foreign Secretary Tras said "the best way to protect the skies is to use anti-aircraft weapons." The fact is that the establishment of a no-fly zone would lead to a direct confrontation between NATO and Russia. ”
British media said that the United Kingdom is considering supplying Ukraine with starlight anti-aircraft missiles, which are known as the world's strongest man-portable air defense missiles, with a range of up to 7,000 meters and a maximum speed of 4 times the speed of sound. The Starlight Missile warhead has 3 tungsten alloy bullets, which can maneuver to attack targets by adjusting the trajectory, and has strong flexibility. The average man-portable air defense missile is only 4,000 meters high, as long as the Russian fighter does not fly at a low altitude, it cannot threaten the Russian fighter.
The Starlight missile can hit 7,000 meters, and it is faster, or a multi-warhead anti-aircraft missile. Coupled with the extremely fast attack speed of the Starlight Missile, it is difficult for low-flying helicopters and slow fixed-wing aircraft to escape its blows. Starlight missiles are far more threatening to Russian warplanes and helicopters than Stinger anti-aircraft missiles.
In addition, the United States also has an advanced individual weapon, which is called a single-soldier cruise missile, a spring knife cruise missile. This patrol missile can cruise over the battlefield, and once a soldier finds a target that needs to be destroyed, it can direct this weapon directly into the target to destroy the opponent. Its combat radius is as high as 60 km. Due to the unique "GPS + TV" composite guidance method, the hit accuracy can be controlled within 1 meter.
The Prancbra Cruise Missile costs only about $10,000. Don't look at the low price, the spring knife patrol missile has: advanced combat performance. Use visual forms to select and identify targets, control ammunition patrol, abort, reposition, safety release insurance, and detonation warhead and other tasks.
The spring knife system consists of a cruise missile, a storage and shipping box and a controller, weighing a total of 5.5 kg. The cruise missile itself weighs about 1 kg and can be loaded with explosives. After the cruise missile is fired from the storage tube, the wings are expanded, the battery acts as a power source to push the propeller to rotate, providing power for the cruise missile, and the on-board video sensor can transmit the battlefield image to the operator.
Now the Ukrainian army mainly relies on javelins and Stinger missiles, and once upgraded to the Star Missile and Spring Blade system, the combat capabilities of the Ukrainian army will be greatly improved.
In particular, the spring knife patrol missile can allow Ukrainian soldiers to have a strong battlefield perception ability within 60 kilometers, as well as the ability to strike accurately at long-distance targets. After the switchblade cruiser is fired, the operator can monitor and search for the target through a real-time image of the target transmitted by the onboard high-resolution color camera.
After receiving the order to destroy, the infantry can lock on to the target through the PSP-sized handheld controller, and the spring knife patrol missile will retract the wing, crash into the target at high speed in a dive mode, and detonate the airborne high-explosive warhead. If the Ukrainian army had 10,000 spring knife patrol missiles, it would pose a great threat to the Russian army. Although one or two weapons could not change the tide of battle, they would increase Russian losses.
