Saksalla, Pistoriuksen suulla, on yhä vaikeuksia positionsa asettamisessa
Germany’s Defense Minister emphasized that while Germany is committed to supporting Ukraine against Russian aggression, he clarified that Kyiv is not considered an ally of Berlin.
Tekee Saksa silti. On numeroiden mukaan jenkkien jälkeen toiseksi suurin Ukrainan tukija. Kranaatteja olisi tulossa
“You can assume that things will get better in the next few months,” Pistorius said, as Germany is set to deliver almost 200,000 rounds of ammunition. “But everything takes time, and it’s not a question of political decisions or financial resources.”
Shahedeista saman julkaisun mukaan ollut väite, että olisi nähty thermobarisia kärkiä. Kiova kieltää: ei havaintoa. Mutta kertoo, että ryssä on modannut lennokkiin ohjuksesta(?) HE-kärjen, jossa volframia. Väitetysti Shahed on nyt ryssän tärkein pitkän matkan asejärjestelmä, ja jatkaa sen kehittämistä.
This туц warhead weighs 40 kg, has a diameter of 31 cm and tungsten fragmentation elements. Defense Express says it is currently believed that this warhead was not designed specifically for the Shaheds, but appears to have been repurposed from existing aviation rockets due to its size and weight compatibility with Shahed-136.
It’s noteworthy that Russia employs three variations of Shahed-136 munitions. The original Iranian variant, marked in Russia as “Geran-M,” has an original Iranian 48.5 kg warhead. Additionally, “Geran-Y” marking-bearing drones, fitted with Russian navigation systems, also utilize this combat component.
The Geran-K marked Shahed drones, newly observed this year, feature a different combat component mentioned above. This Shahed differs from the “old” version in terms of production technology and other details.
“At the same time, it should be understood that Russia continues to develop Shaheds, which has become its main long-range weapon. That is why the emergence of new types of warheads on these aircraft is quite likely,”
