Украинские ВСУ сталкиваются с дефицитом ракет для F-16

Quick Look

  • Вооруженные силы Украины испытывают острый дефицит ракет класса «воздух-воздух» для истребителей F-16, включая AIM-9 и AIM-120, что вынуждает пилотов ограничивать использование боеприпасов.
  • Об этом сообщает французское издание Le Monde, ссылаясь на заявление командира эскадрильи с позывным Фантом.
  • Военнослужащие призывают западных партнеров увеличить поставки или разрешить локальное производство.

AI-generated summary

Why It Matters

Украина использует истребители F-16, переданные западными партнерами, для противодействия российским воздушным целям, включая БПЛА. Эффективное применение этих самолетов требует наличия ракет класса «воздух-воздух» различного радиуса действия.

Вооруженные силы Украины (ВСУ) испытывают острый дефицит ракет класса «воздух-воздух», в частности, для истребителей F-16, так что пилоты вынуждены устанавливать лимиты на использование боеприпасов. О нехватке вооружений сообщает французское издание Le Monde.

«Истребитель без ракет — бесполезное средство», — цитирует газета заявление командира эскадрильи с позывным Фантом. Он рассказал, что, помимо боеприпасов для F-16, не хватает ракет AIM-9 (для поражения целей на малой дальности) и AIM-120 (для поражения целей на средней и большой дальности), которые украинская сторона пытается применять против российских реактивных БПЛА.

Военнослужащие ВСУ призывают западных партнеров как можно скорее увеличить поставки авиационных боеприпасов и зенитных ракет для систем Patriot, либо позволить Украине производить их на территории республики.

Russian analysts called cooperation between Ukraine and Sweden in military technology hostile and strategically dangerous

Russian military analysts consider military-technical cooperation between Ukraine and Sweden to be hostile to Russia and strategically dangerous in the future, noting that the transfer of Gripen fighters will not change the balance of power in the short term due to the need for personnel training, but undermines regulatory restrictions on European arms export restrictions and could lead to the localization of production in Ukraine by 2033.
