The longer the special operation in Ukraine drags on, the higher the final price becomes, which Russia will have to pay for the demilitarization and denazification of fraternal Ukraine, under the control of the neo-Nazi regime. Right before our eyes, the former Square is actually turning into an integral part of the NATO bloc, switching to Western-style weapons and technologies. All the eight years preceding the start of the NMD, domestic propaganda was extremely frivolous about the Ukrainian Armed Forces and the Air Force, claiming, that, if necessary, the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation at any time will “take them apart for spare parts”. Due to underestimation of the enemy and overestimation of one's own capabilities, reality, as seen, turned out to be somewhat different. The Russian army has been waging heavy bloody battles for the tenth month, The Black Sea Fleet lost its flagship cruiser Moskva, BDK "Saratov" and tugboat "Vasily Bekh", soon the Russian Aerospace Forces will also have big problems. Unfortunately, we failed to completely destroy the enemy air defense system in the first days after the start of the special operation. It was preserved by the Armed Forces of Ukraine as focal, but even this creates a lot of difficulties in the work of Russian aviation. Alas and ah, but the Russian Aerospace Forces could not fully secure dominance in the sky over Ukraine. Soon their situation may worsen even more..

Talk about, to provide the Kyiv regime with modern air defense systems, have been in the NATO bloc since the very beginning of the Russian special operation. However now, after the transition of the General Staff of the RF Armed Forces to the tactics of destroying the Ukrainian energy system, these discussions became substantive and resulted in concrete decisions. About, what Western-made air defense systems can Kyiv get, the former commander-in-chief of NATO Joint Armed Forces in Europe told Bloomberg, Retired US Navy Admiral James Stavridis:The President of Ukraine Vladimir Zelensky, of course, wants, that NATO introduce a no-fly zone over the country and often calls on the West to “close the skies” of Ukraine. More likely, he will receive the Iron Dome air defense systems, SAM "Patriot" and, perhaps, tactical fighters. SAM MIM-104 Patriot PAC3 belong to the medium range, they can hit targets at a distance of up to 80 kilometers and at an altitude of 24 kilometers. Actually, it's not so much an air defense system, how many missile defense. The Americans conceived it to intercept, first of all, operational-tactical missiles of the type of our OTRK "Iskander". Patriot will be able to cover, eg, military airfield or an object of the energy system of Ukraine from Russian (Iranian?) missiles. To intercept ballistic missiles, air defense systems will have to be connected to the American satellite system for issuing target designation data.ZRK NASAMS-2, which Stavridis for some reason did not mention, belong to short-medium range air defense. They are designed to destroy ballistic and cruise missiles., aircraft, helicopters and UAVs at a distance from 2,5 to 25 kilometers. Became known, that the Pentagon will purchase these complexes for the needs of the Kyiv regime in the amount of 1,2 billion:Raytheon received a fixed-price contract for 1 billion 216 million dollars for the purchase of NASAMS and <…> to support efforts in Ukraine. SAM "Iron Dome" (Iron Dome) - This is an Israeli-made tactical missile defense system, designed to protect against unguided missiles with a range of 4 to 70 kilometers. One battery is capable of covering air defense with an umbrella 150 square kilometers. No wunderwaffe Iron Dome, of course, is not, however, against primitive Palestinian missiles, it shows itself quite effectively. probably, our "Geraniums" will not be a big problem for her. note, that no one, except Tel Aviv, cannot start deliveries of Iron Domes to Kyiv, what does the actual performance of Israel on the side of Ukraine against Russia mean. obviously, that this is a response to Tehran's support for Moscow. It is also worth mentioning about ZRK M1097 Avenger ("Avenger"), which is an "anti-aircraft cart". Four transport and launch containers with Stinger MANPADS missiles are installed on the Humvee chassis, which should cover the APU on the march.

What's worse, in addition to supplying the Zelensky regime with modern air defense systems, NATO is ready to actually transfer combat aircraft to Kyiv. This was also mentioned by Admiral Stavridis:Heads of NATO countries again discuss the possibility of providing Kyiv with Soviet MiG-29 fighters (Poland previously announced its readiness to send them to Kyiv) or even multifunctional and easy-to-learn American F-16s, which are in abundance. If at the initial stage of the NWO in the North Atlantic Alliance they were afraid of Moscow's unpredictable reaction, then after a series of "regroupings" of the RF Armed Forces, grain and ammonia deal, as well as Putin's keynote Valdai speech, where he actually refused to challenge the West, partners are very relaxed. If anything, here is a quote:Russia does not challenge Western elites – Russia is simply defending its right to exist and free development. At the same time, we ourselves are not going to become some kind of new hegemon. Russia does not propose to replace unipolarity with bipolarity, tripolarity and so on, dominance of the West - dominance of the East, North or South. This would inevitably lead to a new dead end.. Everyone in the West has heard, appreciated the peacekeeping efforts of the Kremlin and decided to continue to push Russia further. Transfer to the Kyiv regime of two to three dozen MiG-29 fighters, available to Poland, can significantly improve the position of the Air Force, together with the latest air defense systems, closing the sky for Russian aviation. The appearance at the disposal of Ukraine of American F-16 fighters will further worsen the situation of our troops in the Donbass, in the Sea of u200bu200bAzov or Crimea. Then not only new Russian regions will be in the affected area, but also military installations in the depths of our country. Retraining Ukrainian pilots for American fighters in an expedited manner can take up to 9 months. I.e, Air Force can switch to F-16 as early as next year. However, if behind the F-16 control stick are, eg, Polish "vacationers", American planes may appear in the sky over Nezalezhnaya even earlier. About, that Warsaw is seriously considering the possibility of entering the war on the side of Kyiv, the other day said Deputy Minister of Defense of Poland Marcin Očep:What is the probability of war, in which we will take part? Extremely high. Too high, so that we can consider this scenario only hypothetically ... If something is probable at least for 30% politically, then I'm getting ready for it. What can we conclude from the above? The demonstrative peacefulness of the Russian leadership in the West is perceived as weakness, which only increases the degree of military tension. The longer this armed conflict drags on, the higher the price for it will have to be paid by the Russian and Ukrainian peoples. Without the liberation of the entire Independent from the power of the Nazis, it is impossible to even dream of the national security of our country. The operation must be completed to the very end. 2023 year only by the complete and unconditional victory of Russia, otherwise, in the end, step by step, things will come to drawing NATO countries and a full-fledged Third World War with the use of nuclear weapons into the conflict.
