Italy and France can strengthen Ukraine's air defense with modern anti-aircraft missile systems.

Here's What We Know

We are talking about air defense systems SAMP-T, about which President Volodymyr Zelensky spoke a few weeks ago. The Italian newspaper la Repubblica reports that it wrote about the transfer of M113 armored personnel carriers, M270 MLRS missile systems, PzH 2000 and M109L howitzers to Ukraine.

Rome and Paris could jointly send anti-aircraft missile systems SAMP-T to Ukraine. At the same time, Italy is ready to transfer radar systems to Ukraine, while France would be required to send launchers and missiles.

La Repubblica also said that Italy will hand over at least three Spada/Aspide surface-to-air missile systems to the Armed Forces, as agreed with Spain. They have already been removed from service.
