US-made armored vehicles in service with the Ukrainian military are up against an unfamiliar threat on the battlefield, one that they haven't faced in previous wars.

Russia and Ukraine employ small drones strapped with explosives as a way to deliver cheap and effective precision strikes on enemy armor, often damaging or destroying them.

The US Army is closely watching how US armored systems delivered to Ukraine — specifically the M1 Abrams tank and M2 Bradley infantry fighting vehicle — are performing in combat and holding up in this new type of warfare.

It's also taking lessons from the conflict and applying them in training, teaching new soldiers how to grasp the threat of small drones. Col. James Modlin, the deputy commandant of the US Army Armor School, said that it was "important" for them to be able to understand the prevalence of small unmanned systems on future battlefields and that the fight was changing.

The UK wants to let Ukraine use its Storm Shadow missiles on Russian soil but isn't giving Kyiv permission out of concern that the US won't back the call, according to multiple reports.

The Telegraph and the Financial Times reported Tuesday that London officials have privately been asking the US for the go-ahead this summer.

But Ukraine has yet to receive the green light to launch the British and French-made cruise missiles on targets inside Russia — a move that it's championed as the next crucial step for the war effort.

Comment: 

The Ukraine leader wants to expand the war with Russia. Off course he is using weapons from US, France, etc.    What will that lead to? Just a thought.

Moonfish..

 

A top Ukrainian pilot was killed when a US-made F-16 fighter jet crashed on Monday, just weeks after the long-awaited planes arrived in the country , a Ukrainian military source told CNN.  

The Ukrainian Defense Forces do not believe pilot error was behind the incident, the source added.   

Pilot Oleksiy Mes, known as “Moonfish,” was killed in the crash while “repelling the biggest ever aerial attack” by Russia against Ukraine, said the source.

The death of the pilot is a major blow for Ukraine. The first F-16s only arrived in the country earlier this month and Moonfish was one of the few pilots trained to fly them.
