The head of the Russian defense department, Sergei Shoigu, during a collector meeting, pointed out the significant losses of the troops of the Ukrainian regime in Western-style weapons. According to Shoigu, losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are growing not only in ordinary, but also in heavy weapons. In particular, during the special military operation, the Kyiv regime, as a result of Russian strikes, lost 33 M777 howitzers and six HIMARS launchers. And that, and other weapons to Ukraine were supplied from the USA.
The head of the Russian Ministry of Defense noted, that in the last couple of weeks alone, the armed forces of Ukraine have lost almost 400 (396) ATGM Javelin and NLAW, and 125 MANPADS Stinger.
Ukrainian troops as a result of Russian strikes on warehouses lost more than two hundred missiles to HIMARS universal launchers. The missiles were in warehouses in the Nikolaev and Kharkov regions.
Also, during the special operation, five launchers of the Harpoon anti-ship systems and missiles for them were destroyed.. In one of the cases, the destruction of Harpoon occurred a few days ago as a result of a pinpoint attack on the Ukrainian Armed Forces warehouse in Odessa.
Sergei Shoigu said, that western weapons, delivered to Ukraine, creates additional danger for the region. The reason is, among other things, the sale by the Ukrainian military of weapons supplied from NATO countries on the black market.. Many such facts are recorded on the network.. They are trying to sell "to the left" literally everything: from bulletproof vests and other ammunition to NATO-style machine guns and portable anti-aircraft missile systems.
