The U.S. Defense News website reported that Polish Defense Minister Blaszzak has announced that it will buy 500 American M-142 Haimas rockets. Moreover, in order to deliver this batch of rockets as soon as possible, a large part will be produced by local factories in Poland.
In fact, Poland did not need so many rockets at all, and the Polish Army had only 1 tank division, 2 mechanized divisions and several independent brigades in total. Now the Polish army has only 200 rockets, and what is the use of ordering 500 Haimas rockets at once? Change it all to a rocket artillery division?
With the polish army's military strength, it is doubling, and 200-300 Haimas rockets are enough. Even the U.S. Army has hundreds of Haimas rockets.
What are so many Haimas rockets going to do? Russian Ambassador to the United States Antonov warned that Russia hopes that the United States will remain sane on the issue of us providing rockets to Ukraine. Antonov said that if such weapons are supplied, there will be a risk that they will be deployed to the border, and the Ukrainians will gain the ability to strike Russian cities.
Finally, Antonov said that the Russian military has the ability to clear the Ukrainian military capability. The United States and Russia are both nuclear powers, and the two nuclear powers still need to retain dignity for each other. The task, then, would be given to Poland, which would transfer more Of the Hippocampian rockets to the Ukrainian army. At the same time, the United States will also provide assistance to Ukraine with the basic version of the M-270 heavy rocket launcher in stock.
Although, the United States will most likely not assist Ukraine with offensive weapons, such as the MQ-9 large armed drone, F-16 fighter, F-15 fighter and M-1A2 tank. Nor will rocket launch tactical missiles with a range of 300-500 km. That would infuriate Russia.
The United States mainly assists in defensive weapons and individual weapons. From the current situation analysis, the Haimas rocket artillery equipped with standard ammunition, the basic version of the M-270 rocket launcher and the M-777 155 mm towed howitzer are the best heavy weapons that the United States can aid Ukraine.
Therefore, it is already the best time window for the Russian army. Before the arrival of heavy weapons in Large quantities by the United States and NATO, the existing heavy weapons of the Ukrainian army have suffered heavy losses and their combat effectiveness has declined. It is the last window of time for the Russian army.
In the autumn, after hundreds of Haimas rockets and M-270 rockets arrived on the battlefield, the heavy firepower of the Ukrainian army increased by at least 10 times, and the firepower superiority of the Russian army was gone.
At the same time, the war has been going on for 3 months, and it will last for a few more months, and the Russian army will not be able to stand it. Because the Russian conscripts could not participate in the war, and the reserves could not be mobilized. The Russian army on the battlefield now is all officers, non-commissioned officers and professional soldiers. After a year and a half of fighting, the losses of Russian officers and non-commissioned officers are too great, and they will be in trouble later.
In an army, non-commissioned officers who have been in service for several years are the core of an army. Volunteers are good to replenish, and they can go to the battlefield after 1-2 months of training. But non-commissioned officers who are proficient in various infantry techniques and tactics, non-commissioned officers who are proficient in tank techniques and tactics and maintenance, and non-commissioned officers who are proficient in artillery fire strikes are difficult to replenish.
The Russian army now has few tanks, and there are not many officers and non-commissioned officers to be consumed. This summer is the last time for the Russians to settle the battle. The entire Donbass region was seized, the entire states of Kherson and Zaporizhia were seized, and then turned to a defensive position, establishing a defensive line and declaring an armistice.
According to public reports, the Russian military will establish ministries of internal affairs in Kherson and Zaporizhian oblasts in September, a new tax system and the issuance of Russian passports. At the same time, local people can be mobilized for military service and so on. The Russians need to resolve the fighting by September, while concentrating on suppressing ukrainian guerrillas in Kherson and Zaporizhia.
If the above objectives cannot be achieved in September, the Ukrainian army has a tendency to push back the Russian army. Both Kherson and Zaporozhia may not be saved, and Donezik is also dangerous.
