#Biden provided $800 million in additional military aid to Ukraine ##美国向乌克兰提供弹簧刀巡飞弹 #
As the Russian-Ukrainian military conflict entered a new stage, the Ukrainian army was severely damaged on the eastern, northern and southern fronts, due to a large number of anti-tank missiles and other tactical weapons sent to the Ukrainian army by Europe and the United States have been exhausted, plus the original new batch of weapons has just been transported to the military base in Ukraine, it was destroyed by the Russian army, and the Ukrainian army has a tendency to run out of ammunition.
In order to reverse the unfavorable situation of the Ukrainian army, the US Biden administration is planning to provide a new batch of military assistance to the Ukrainian army, adding another 500 million US dollars of emergency military financial support to the original 200 million US dollars of special military assistance. One of the most important weapons assistance programs is to provide the Ukrainian army with U.S.-developed individual patrol munitions, and this secret weapon is expected to be dedicated to "beheading" important figures of the Russian army.
According to US media reports, the US government plans to provide the Ukrainian army with a series of "switchblade" cruise missiles, which can be fired in a small launcher that can be carried by a single soldier, similar in appearance to a grenadier or a miniature mortar. After the launch of the cruise ammunition codename "Switchblade" 300, it can be used to carry out precision strikes against personnel, and this type of ammunition automatically ejects wings with a long wingspan after firing, so that the ammunition can fly a long distance, and can also glide in the air, hover over the target, waiting for the opportunity to attack the target.
In addition, the "spring knife" 600 can kill and injure local tanks and armored vehicles at a long distance, which is very suitable for the current Russian-Ukrainian military conflict battlefield, where the military forces of the two sides are facing each other around the town. As a new type of intelligent ammunition, the "spring knife" is equipped with a navigation system and reconnaissance observation sensors, which are verified by the camera at a distance of sight, and with the addition of "human circuit", the operator can guide the weapon to attack the enemy target through VR glasses.
Western media claim that the "Spring Knife" series of intelligent weapons is actually a long-range killing weapon that combines unmanned aerial vehicles and new cruise ammunition, and the "Spring Knife" 600 can fly for 40 minutes and have a range of up to an unprecedented 85 kilometers. However, before the weapons were shipped to Ukraine, only a simple test was carried out in Syria and Afghanistan, and the specific test results were not disclosed by the US side.
Analysts believe that the purpose of the United States in providing this new type of weapon in Ukraine is not simple, because the sales price of the "Spring Knife" 300 is $6,000, and its overall price is much lower than that of the "Javelin" anti-tank missile. On the one hand, the United States provided cheap weapons to the Ukrainian army, and on the other hand, it was able to collect actual combat data through Ukrainians.
The outside world believes that this weapon cannot change the situation on the battlefield, and may bring a lot of trouble to the Russian army, but changing the war situation through a single weapon is nothing less than wishful thinking. The Ukrainian side has been calling on the United States to provide fighter jets, drones, anti-ship missiles and electronic warfare jamming equipment in the past two weeks, in addition to weapons such as the "Avenger" air defense missile system, but the United States has not responded at all.
