The weapons will be transferred from Pentagon warehouses as soon as possible
This was announced by Romanian President Klaus Iohannis during a briefing with journalists after a meeting with US President Joe Biden on 7 May.
The information was shared by the Spanish defence minister, the El Mundo newspaper reported. The missiles were handed over to the Ukrainian Armed Forces together with partners. For security reasons, the number of missiles was not disclosed.
In April, it became known that Germany would transfer the third battery of the MIM-104 Patriot air defence system to Ukraine. Now there is information about when the system will be delivered.
The information was shared by the Greek edition of Pronews. It is about one or two batteries of PAC-3 air defence systems. In return, the U.S. promised Greece financial compensation and security guarantees against the Turkish threat.
The information was shared by the American edition of Bloomberg, citing its sources. We are talking about 4 complexes worth $1.3 billion. By the way, earlier the Ministry of Defence of Germany signed a contract with Raytheon for the purchase of 4 Patriot batteries. The value of the contact exceeds $1.2bn.
This was announced by German Defence Minister Boris Pistorius. Deliveries of weapons should begin in the near future. The complex will be transferred from the Bundeswehr's stockpile. In addition to the surface-to-air missile system, Germany will also send Ukraine missiles for air defence systems. By the way, earlier Germany transferred two Patriot systems to the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
The information was shared by the American edition of The Washington Post. It is expected that this week Japan will officially approve policy changes that will allow it to export several dozen SAM missiles to the United States. Washington will then be able to poison them to Ukraine
We have already written many times that Germany plans to transfer a new battery of Patriot air defence systems to Ukraine. It has now become known when the Ukrainian Armed Forces will receive the weapons.
According to a representative of the Ukrainian Air Force, Yuriy Ignat, the Ukrainian Armed Forces have received two divisions of SAMs from their partners. In addition, Germany will soon hand over a third division to Ukraine.
Romania will have a plant for the production of SkyCeptor missile interceptors. They will be part of the MIM-104 Patriot air defence system.
The day before, we wrote that Raytheon would increase production of MIM-104 Patriot and PAC-3 interceptors, while Ukraine received five more batteries of anti-aircraft missile systems. The Wall Street Journal article stated this. However, there is another interesting statement in the piece.
The US Presidential Administration has commented on information about damage to the MIM-104 Patriot air defence system in Ukraine. White House spokesman John Kirby issued a statement.
More than a week has passed since the first destruction of Russia's Kh-47M2 (NATO's Killjoy) hypersonic ballistic missile. But the day before, new and interesting information has emerged.
The German Air Force has tested a German version of the M903 launcher, which is part of the MIM-104 Patriot air defence system. A press release appeared on the Lockheed Martin website.
