US' Laser-Guided Rocket Systems To Make Ukraine's Bayraktar TB2 Drones More Lethal
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 сен 2024
- The laser-guided rocket systems being sent by the US to Ukraine are being reckoned as the latest weapons for Bayraktar TB2 Drones. The Turkish-made Bayraktar drones have been used to lethal effect by Ukraine against invading Russian forces. The Ukrainian military has been using TB2 for battlefield destruction and other operations against the Russian military. However, the TB2 drones used by the Ukrainian army are reportedly now running short of missiles.

This probably wouldn't be a problem with Turkey if we had sold them the air defense systems they wanted instead of denying them causing them to buy Russian air defense systems pushing them closer to russia
No. Turkey is in the same jam as Germany... its all about the natural gas....
Well USA denied to sell patriots to Turkey untill Turkey contracted Russian S400. And aftet Turkey was expelled from f35 program while Turkey was one of the main partners of the project and who manufacture some parts. And at the end USA sent heavy arms to PKK-YPG terrorists who had been attacking and killing Turkish Nato soldiers.
After all USA not only pushed Turkey to Russia. Also created in Turkish nation hatred to America and Sympathy to Putin.
And at the end Americans see when there is a major problem Turkey is a solid ally and they spent their taxes on wrong bets. Turkey is in a very strategical area with big population and strong army. If USA will push Turkey away there always will be someone who will want to ser such player in his team.
@@joelrunyan1608 You are both right, but gas does have a bigger role
You're absolutely right. US denied to sell Turkey the Patriot systems, then blames why they bought S400 from Russia.
Türkiyenin rus gazına ihtiyacı yok. Azerbaycan ve İran gazi yeterli. İsrail'e gaz vermek için yalvarıyor.
This small and inexpensive Drone has made its Mark in any war that it has entered
From syria to libya to Ethopia and now helping Ukrainian to give then the Battle edge and destroying Heavy Russian Armour
Turkish Drones has Garned so much Fame no other drone can now Match its Combat Affectiveness
Are you joking? TB2 is nowhere near the best combat drone, you seriously think just because it's a cheap secondhand option that is being insanely overhyped to be a million times better than it actually is makes it the best drone? There are entire other classes of higher capability drones that it can't come anywhere near matching, to a bystander like you maybe just because small shitty economies that can't afford high end military equipment have used it in a couple conflicts but the reality is the US alone, one country for example, has several drones that have an entire different level of capacity. It can't even carry enough weight to be able to use missiles like hellfire, that alone says that it's definitely not the best. TB2 is maybe the best combat drone in it's class, the best period is another thing altogether

Dear NATO allies,
the war started in Afghanistan in 2001 and continued with the Iraq war in 2003. Until then, everything seemed half as wild. Then the war swept across the Middle East and now the war is in Europe. The war has been migrating westward for 20 years and has now reached NATO borders. The enemies of the West (China, Russia, North Korea...) outnumber the West in number as well as in the number of nuclear warheads. In the meantime, their economic power and technology are also a danger for the West.
And it's always the same, as soon as war breaks out somewhere and the West needs good soldiers, then the Turks are good friends for them (Korea war, Afghanistan, Somalia, ISIS...).
After the war, the West does everything to keep the Turkish economy from getting too big. The claim that Turkey will leave NATO and the West as soon as it becomes an economically great power is false. We Turks are the most loyal people in the world. Stop wrecking our economy and we'll take out the Russians and the Chinese on our own so you can sit back and eat popcorn. As we have done several times in our 1500 year history, in 3 different Turkish empires.
@@hakang1331 It appears as though you've been zooming out to look at the entire map, eh?
I also view this as a continuation of the old East Vs West ideological conflict and it's nice to see someone else with a long term perspective.
For The States, it essentially began at the end of WW2, but I'm sure we could go back quite far in time, in search of the origin. Most of our wars over the past 80 years were due to this ongoing conflict.
As far as I'm aware, we have no vested interest (currently) in limiting Turkish power in that region of the world. A strong ally in that area greatly benefits the West, and protects (and projects) our long term interests.
Our two countries have been working together since the early 1800s, and our only real concern or issue with turkey today is the question of stability. You gave us a bit of a scare with the 2016 coup attempt, and I believe it was reasonable for us to pull back for a while... but in time we'll get back to normal relations.
Closer relations with Turkey is our overall goal, according to the State Department, so we'll get there, over time. No worries.
PS: Thanks for the Bayraktar. It's not often a weapon comes with it's own theme song! 😁

Nice to read that, best wishes !
Well done Ukraine, NATO unite together 🇹🇷❤️🇺🇦🇹🇷🤝🇺🇸
A big shout out to Vlad " The Boss" Putin for supplying the soldiers so America can test their weapons on is surely appreciated.
You’re Mexican
Testing in a lab or on a testing range is fine at first, but nothing proves a weapon like a way.
We should be sending Ukraine every crazy bleeding edge weapon we have and test the crap out of them.
😂😂😂
In war, surprises is key to victories, but every putin military moves & direction are well known? No way he is going to win this war. Ukraine can read his militaries like alphabet, specially on Kyiv. He rather call it quits than losing more soldiers, his weapons depleted, & his country suffered more? If he is not, he'll lost his power once Russians learned how he failed in his invasions & killed tens of thousands of Russian militaries.
This 'special military operation' has been a goldmine for intelligence interests! They were wetting themselves waiting to get their hands on Russian hardware for study, especially the electronic jamming tech. Not to mention studying CaC tactics, though not real impressive, but real data...🤔
God bless Turkey for helping Ukraine
But still taking Russian oil? Backhanded.
Actually disappointing after hosting failed talks . real reason , their own power needs. Bit crap really . oh and sell Ukraine weapons on the side.
@Aytuğ Çataklı
Ruskis never intended for peace, so it would be idiotic to blame Turkey for it.
@@acidtechno A person can't be this ignorant, you don't know anything.
Turkey, the only country in the world that allows peace talks, is an example of complete ignorance to claim that Turkey has failed while other countries are touting war.
@Aytuğ Çataklı no I'm not.
I hope the APKWS works on the Bayraktar. Being able to increase the number of weapons carried per sortie will definitely result in more Russian crispy critters.
I like that. Crispy critters. Can't have enough of em. All day long. Every day of the week. Never too much.
The Bayraktar doesn't exist anymore in a fighting sense for Ukraine, because Turkey has cut off all spare parts, repairs, updates and munitions. Hopefully the west has a good understanding of the design and functionality to keep it flying for 2-3 months. After that the Ukrainians are f/t. We should be sending something of similar abilities, but only turkey has this ability at the moment. Or Israel, and they don't want to get involved either.
I think it can work on tb2 as bayraktar use Nato laser designator standard but Apkws's 3km max range is problem because bayraktar launches mam-l free drop at 8km altitude. Flying near to ground will cause to put bayraktar in the range of short range air defence systems and make it more detectable as radar print will be bigger.
@@gb1178
More suicide drones:)
@@gb1178 thought the Russians shoot them all down, anyway but updates, repairs, spare parts, dude what's you talkin bout, those things are essentially flying moped engines with electronics available at any toystore, I'm sure Ukraine will be using them even after Putin is long gone😁
Turkey should just continue supplying Ukraine with MAM munitions. This is not the time for experiments with little US rockets which aren't as effective as the MAM-L munitions. America and Europe should buy these munitions from Turkey and donate it to Ukraine.
I think Turkey faces a stock problem in delivering smart micro munitions to Ukraine.
USA and the EU should expedite oil and gas exports and infrastructure, or at least guarantee energy supply to Turkey. This will remove the problem of Russia threatening to withhold oil and gas if Turkey keeps supplying drones and missiles to Ukraine.
Turkey can get all energy needs met by a multitude of gulf states or even in own waters of Mediterranean they bordering on huge field runs across Syria , Lebanon an Israel waters ,don't have to suckle at poo poo poo tins tests!!!!🇦🇺💮⚔️🎀🌻🌺🥇🌹🪅💐🌍🏵️🎁💯🌸🗝️✌️🎯🏆💎💍😄
They should also lift the economic sanctions on Turkey and find solution to the f35 program issue. Now that russia is a threat, turkey, an important nato memeber in the region, should be equipped with somthing better than the f16s.

They should allow Turkey to use euros or dollars, even if they do not take them to Europe, when Turkey switches to dollars and euros, it will not need Russian gas and Russian tourists
I remember hearing the Bayractar drone song a Ukrainian made at the beginning of the war. It's my phone ring now .
Crop Sprayers make excellent platforms for guided munitions, bombs, etc. They can fly incredibly low and being slow will not be detected by radar. They can operate from virtually anywhere, roads, fields, etc. Ukraine must have hundreds of them
P51 Mustangs would be better. They can outfly any of the larger drones. A $2 million drone in exchange for a few dozen .50 calibre rounds seems to me like a bargain.
small arms fire will kill a cropduster pilot.
The rubbish some people spout....
What you're saying is correct, but the disadvantage is that they have to be maned, and given their slow flight speed and low altitudes, as well as that they aren't at all armored, means the death toll among their pilots would be unacceptably high. So long as un-maned options remain available, such as TB-2s and even commercial delivery octocopter drones, they remain preferable to maned older technologies.
Brilliant idea! Minor detail: you'll need Kamikaze pilots.
But Russia says that they have eliminated 106% of Ukraine's Bayraktar TB2 drones?
Thought is was 200% of the TBs
@@JBoy340a 300% lies!
RuSSians lied as usual 1000%
Rule No 1 : Don't believe anything the Russians say.
Rule No 2 : Don't believe anything the Russians say.
Rule No 3 : If a Russian tells the truth he's still a liar.
Soon they will eliminate world's entire tb2 fleet in Ukraine.
Turkish drones are brilliant
🌎
If the drones have rockets to shoot then use them as a guiding drone which gives exact coordinates for rockets or airplanes to launch from air or from land - use them as a reflecting mirror - as all Bayraktar drones can communicate with eachother interactivly - they can make a chain for data transfer without using the satelitte a kind of Loran-c but dynamic in the air.
Thank you for that info. Makes me admire them even more. Are the Ukrainians using all of these features?
Yeah, what he ^ said.
@@otpyrcralphpierre1742 Once the TB2 is out of ammo it marks targets for different weapons systems. So it is already one of the functions of Bayraktar SIHA(UAV).
I think the was done, to the Moskva!
To the US, Please send thousands of these laser-guided rocket systems🚀 to Ukraine. Like you said, they are much lighter in weight, with the possibility of fixing 6 to 8 of these rocket to the Bayraktar drones. I am so much looking forward to hearing of any success these might have if they are supplied to Ukraine. Good shooting.🚀🚀🚀🚀🛩
They can get some time but they can't win.
US will fight till last ukrainian because thats how America fight against strong countries.
Russia is not Iraq or Libya or Yugoslavia.
So if America wants to beat Russia America will fight till last ukrainian and America won't let Ukrainian leaders to resolve the issue diplomatically.
They were AMAZING in the Middle East. Many a "technical" met its end at the hands of a guided Hydra Rocket! Each kit only cost around $30K when they were introduced. I'm sure that price has dropped now due to the numbers produced. $33K for a rocket and guidance is pretty cheap. That's less than 1/4 the cheapest laser-guided missile in the US inventory... The GRIFFIN Missile.
The Griffin MIGHT be another option for the Bayraktar drone. It's a little longer than 1 meter, weighs 20kg, and has a range of 20km when fired from aircraft (6km? when ground-fired). It too uses active laser guidance. But you can buy FOUR APKW guidance kits for a single GRIFFIN Missile's cost.
@@swaghauler8334 Sounds good...
I worry about how many of these were lost to the Taliban when Biden withdrew from Afganistan. In other words, these rockets may already be in Ukraine but under Russian control. Don't be confused, the decision tree for US support is: Obama, Clinton then Biden. And remember: 1) "I'll be able to do more when I'm reelected." ~B. Obama 2) The Great Reset ~ Sec. of State Hillary Clinton 3) Burisma ~ Hunter Biden. None of the aforementioned did these things for free. If Biden decided to visit Ukraine (like PM Johnson) Zelensky needs to keep him out of any military intellegence centers...what Biden (and his staff) see will make its way back to Putin quickly. Just sayin'.
8 laser guided rockets from single Bayraktar drone can destroy 8 RuSSian tanks. Slava Ukraine!
Thats excelent news 👍👍
💪💯💥🙏😇
The base 70mm Rocket concept is an old one but the modern rocket engines, warheads, with the laser guidance upgrade make them as capable as early Hellfire missiles.

Turkey itself has provided MAM-C and MAM-L laser guided missiles which are compatible with Bayraktar tb2 drones to ukrain....these are very advanced micro munitions with very very high precision.
Great video from crux. And a great upgrade for Ukraine. Lazer guided weapons are very accurate. Should be a game changer. Victory 💪💪 Ukraine.
Yes, I would think that it would be especially successful in the kind of terrain in the Eastern parts of Ukraine...
Orcs are dying like flies 🤣💪☝️
No compare with the Turkish one. Turkish smart bmbs use thermobaric warheads. That's why they can create a huge impact.
The Baktiar is invisible to Russian fire-control radars because it flies too slow for them to 'see' it. When I used to fly, we would play jokes on search radars by pointing the plane into the wind and going into slow flight. We then disappeared from their radar because they are programmed to ignore objects below a certain speed, such as birds, weather phenomenon and ground clutter.
Its not slow for them to see, it's really small and has a low radar cross section which makes it really hard to detect.
@@DOHA104p3
That's the official story.
I see...no wonder some miltary company using that weakness of slow as their main assets
@@ayahpinkofficial2769
As soon as I read that the Baktiar was slow, I knew what they were doing. When it is loitering over a target, it just disappears from radar, if they see it at all.
It is also invisible because the Russians do not have 10% of the spread out presence of the Ukrainians. If the Ukrainians were to fly these directly over Russian installations several times to get to their destinations they would be easily spotted and shot down. As it stands now they can stay away up to the distance of whatever the ordinance is they are using and fly in on the edges when necessary.
If the Russians were to use the same kind of drone there's a revel rate would be far shorter as the Ukrainians have the benefit of staying in smaller and more dispersed units because the civilians love them and actually support them logistically.
Hello again Turkish allies. Here in the US, we know you're in a tough spot between a rock and a hard place, but meanwhile...The Bayraktar has made Turkey a household name over here!
(Prior to the war, the most anyone knew about Turkey related to sandwiches and one communist Twitch streamer.)😁
Glad to have you with us in whatever capacity you're able to assist. 👍
Thank Turkey for the Bayraktar! I'm just a little bit surprised that they cut Ukraine off at the knees after supplying the drones. How can they get replacement parts, munitions or other upgrades needed to fly? I would have thought that this was all part of the sale contract. Ukraine is depending on these drones so, so much. You don't have to take sides if it is not in your national interest security wise??? However, please keep supplying the necessary equipment to the Ukrainians to keep them flying. The Bayraktar has made a name for itself in the world in the last 18 months, so if you want a million more sales worldwide in the future, follow up on your obligations. Thank you Turkey, and the world help Ukraine.
I believe it's a bit complicated. One dictator - Putin - talked to another dictator - Erdogan - and told him to stop selling drones and what ammunition and spare parts are needed to keep them flying to Ukraine. Erdogan initially replied his hands are tied because the drone is sold by a private company, not by the Turkish state. To which Putin replied that Russian oil and gas bought by Turkey is also sold by private companies, but it might stop flowing. To which Erdogan, being a dictator, not the leader of a functioning democracy, led by the rule of law, possibly reconsidered his position on the freedom of doing business of the private company that makes the drones.
Then again, no matter how good the drone is, likely nobody will buy it, if they get a live demo of how easy it is to be cut off from critical supplies to keep it flying when you need them most.

How about Byaraktar with Sea JAVELIN ANTI SHIP Missile🔥🔥☠️
About time now sent long range missiles and artillery.
I am sure there are enough clever people out there to figure out the best weapons for the drones. So far, those drones are really effective.
The Ukrainians are dancing and singing songs about how much they love the Bayraktar.
Autonomous/smart weapons like drones, ground vehicles, submersibles, etc are the future of war! The systems will just get smarter and deadlier if people survive long enough to continue development? 🤔💀
Since there is no guidance system that depends on the airframe, this is more a question of payload brackets. Once they engineer the physical launch mount (that would arm the missile and launch it), there's nothing more to do to make the missile compatible. Still, this could take a few weeks to adapt. But the Ukrainians develop some of their own weapons and they have good (and motivated) engineers. And as for the ground troops, painting a target is quite easy and anyone can do it with a few minutes of training.
I wouldn't be surprised to see them test this out just a couple of weeks after taking delivery of the missiles. Let's hope the US will ship those ASAP because they are urgently needed. The Ukrainians won't make their weapon stock figures public of course, but it seems they only have a week or two of supply. It depends on the timing of the Russian offensive more than anything else...

They would be better off to integrate the Switch Blade drone and use the TB2 as a long reach delivery vehicle. Use the TB2 video link to send back the guidance imaging from the Switch Blade. Could probably carry dozens of the SB in one mission.
Agree.The switchblade drones are "kamikaze type of weapon that are effectiive at "kill-range" regardless of the guidance system that brought them to their targets by sheer numbers. HOwever, the varied use of Pentagon-reccommended rocket laser-guided systems is a rich field test at the expense of the Russians.. serves them right, too...

Haha and it begins soon Ukraine will have Abraham’s tanks and Patriot air defense missles.
Of course there is a shortage of missiles for the TB-2. Most of the ordnance has been the precision guided micro bombs MAM-C and MAM-L. Turkey can still supply these MAMs. They just don't need to advertise it. They sell a lot of cheap shotguns to U.S. civilians. They could put them into those shipments.
Bayraktar caused a lot of trouble to Russia, problems began to be experienced with Turkey. That's why Turkey had to stop the sale so that the gas would not be cut off.
@@celil4808 That's the "official" misinformation.
Russia absolutely can't afford to cut of Turkish gas, it desperately needs the money. Kremlin applying other direct pressure (threats) to Turkey 'behind the scenes', like maybe assassination of his son, family, cyber attacks, destroy Turkish economy, typical Russian KGB / FSB threats and fear based control.

i guess that would escalate things a bit. better to let the russian military bleed out first. they are now resupplying but in the mean time, the fight is still going on. their next "wave" might be the last powerful one that the ukrainian forces will try to withstand. maybe by pulling back a bit. then it will be a stalemate for a few weeks until the russian forces will be ground up.
the bayraktar tb2 needs to take care of air defense first. after that it can take care of artillery and tanks.
the next 40 days will be tough, then russians will slowely turn into fertilizer.
the question is how many batches of soldiers and equipment will pootin send in until the russian military is exhausted. per new batch, another 40 days?
The US has just retired a large number of Predator drones. They could be of good use in the Ukraine.

Great idea! I guess the're working on it right now.
finally turkey solved its problems with france israel as well as US 😂
pakistan 😭😭😭😭😭
Fantastic. I am sure they will do good work. Glory to the Ukraine.
Hooray for our side!
Wow. This like the Apollo 13 groundcrew braintrust saving the mission with brilliance "on the fly". There really is nothing like the Eleventh Hour to sprout the proverbial miraculous trickbag.
Cool reference...
PGM are all good, drones can spot for artillery too. Messy and needs to be in range, Ukraine has good guns. ♥It takes blood and treasure to fight let alone win.💛💙
hopeful news 👍
Get ROCK IN BOYS!!
The west need to supply weapons to Ukraine asap to test West weapons against Russia, anti ship, SAM, anti tank and stinger star streak missiles against Russian planes, this is once in a life time opportunity
Very good.
A first on the battlefield and tactical small arms capable of destroying large guns. Being invisible is a huge advantage in battle. Turkey has done its part in this regard, why are other states looking? Are their guns just economical?
Ukraine needs more than the Bayraktar drones. They need real air support. Two aircraft come to mind. Sweden's Grippen fighter jet and I think Beechcraft makes an excellent ground attack aircraft. The Grippen can use two land highways to take-off and land and only needs a three-man ground crew to maintain the fighter. (As advertised by SAAB.) Therefore, the landing fields can be anywhere making it much more difficult for the Russians to target them. Another advantage of the Grippen is that it cheaper than any other fighter in the west, as well as being cheaper to maintain, therefore, Ukraine can buy more. They can start out with fifty airframes and train more and more pilots on these airframes over six-month period of time. Then, there's the Beechcraft attack aircraft is also very cheap to buy. Easy to maintain, Easy to train pilots, and can take off from two land roads. They have a top speed of over 500 miles an hour, can fly below radar, carry a heavy payload, and be very devastating to Russian convoys. So, there low cost, easy to maintain, can operate from almost anywhere and the Ukrainian's can spread them out into 4-man teams throughout Ukrainian territory and moving them around making them more difficult to destroy. Over period of a year, they can build up a large air force within aq year. If you think these aircraft would be no match for Russia aircraft. The Ukrainians have been flying antiques all along and destroying Russian aircraft, both of the above systems are far more modern and capable then what they are flying now.
F-15's and Apache Longbow helicopters.
Lots of them.
@@protorhinocerator142 F-15's are very expensive and can't take off from any highway smaller than a 4-lane highway that is very straight. Plus, the aircrews are very large, the F-15 needs quite of maintenance as well. The Apache would be a good fit but needs a lot of training, taking up to two years to train on. The Grippen and Beechcraft don't, and are quite cheaper to buy and maintain, as well can fly from almost anywhere.
That's right. We must to destroy them all. Our airforce is mighty.
@@ulrichschnell2331 At this point I'm not so sure we care a lot about the expense. If we can force F-15's to work somehow, then we should send them.
@@protorhinocerator142 One major problem, Ukraines air fields have been destroyed. You need airfields that have concrete runways for F-15's. They no longer have those do they. Saab's Grippen again does not need proper landing strips to take-off and land. Ukraine for the present time when it concerns its' Air Force must fight a guerilla war. Maybe in a year when Russian air forces are decimated they can aqruire F-15's.
The current weapons work very well.
I pray they get there in time
Laser-guided weapons are cheaper than fire and forget systems, and also need the operators to maintain line-of-sight with the target to PAINT it with a laser designator for the whole flight time of the missile. That means prolonged exposure to potential return fire. Still very good, but not the "best"...
New advanced Hellfires would have been that!
Does the rocket not paint the target itself?
I've been wondering why Hellfires haven't been used. That's a nasty weapon, that would really mess up orc armor...
There must be a solution somewhere, to find a platform for use of the Hellfires...
@@blueslsd No, it doesn't. It's really nothing different that a GBU12 or laser guided Maverick.
Another downside is that small warhead. You can't really harm the crew inside a tank with that. You can take out tracks or sensors, but killing a tank with that isn't likely. BUT it makes short work of BTRs and BMPs do to the nature of being shot top down. On top, they have to be carried in a rocket pod, meaning you bring up to 19 per pylon (that means if the TB2 can carry 4 pods it can bring 76 rockets total) instead of the usual 4 bigger once the TB2 brings in total on the 4 Pylons.
A hellfire Costs a million bucks.. and. This is a weapon for a drone. That can't duck and hide after firing anyways...
@@mad_villain8580 That's where I think the value is. Enough hydras rippled off will kill anything. If each bayracktar can actually carry 76 rockets...(damn those missiles must be heavy) I wonder if the new laser guidance allows you to ripple off multiple rockets on the same target. It would only take 1 for light vehicles, but a t90 with full reactive armor might eat 10 or more rockets.
Can it kill a tank or is just good for APC's?
No,this won't be enough to destroy a heavy armoured vehicle.But effective against light armoured vehicles.So Ukrainians can save their powerful missiles for tougher targets
it cant destroy tanks but can unable to move them when that happens crew just run aways
The United States has so many weapons it's mind boggling.
MAM Land MAM U its more shopicated than US rocket laser
Yeap MAM series guiding is almost perfect
i'm surprised turkey has'nt got the bottle to stand up to putin
Dear NATO allies,
the war started in Afghanistan in 2001 and continued with the Iraq war in 2003. Until then, everything seemed half as wild. Then the war swept across the Middle East and now the war is in Europe. The war has been migrating westward for 20 years and has now reached NATO borders. The enemies of the West (China, Russia, North Korea...) outnumber the West in number as well as in the number of nuclear warheads. In the meantime, their economic power and technology are also a danger for the West.
And it's always the same, as soon as war breaks out somewhere and the West needs good soldiers, then the Turks are good friends for them (Korea war, Afghanistan, Somalia, ISIS...).
After the war, the West does everything to keep the Turkish economy from getting too big. The claim that Turkey will leave NATO and the West as soon as it becomes an economically great power is false. We Turks are the most loyal people in the world. Stop wrecking our economy and we'll take out the Russians and the Chinese on our own so you can sit back and eat popcorn. As we have done several times in our 1500 year history, in 3 different Turkish empires.
I like the channel for its informative content but how can you allow comments that call the *death* of other people? Surely other YT channels were blocked for less. We are one human family💟
It is very easy. USA should purchase the missiles from Turkey and send them to Ukraine. We make simple things complicated because we first talk about them in the news media and it is not necessary to talk about these things.
Go go go forward & win the. War Ukrainian Armed Forces God bless u all Ukrainian Armed Forces God be with u forever !!!
It is requested that the international community should punish Russia. Let us pray to God so that God may punish them in time. I am from North East India ie Mizoram State. May God help the peoplr/Armed Forces personnel of all ranks of Ukraine. Mr C Laltanpuia

"It is requested"...
Thought you might be 'The Old Guard'...
Ukraina should have more Bayraktars. Bayraktar alternative is needed
Great for "tank plinking".
Plink everything that looks like a tank.
Start using them on that eight mile convoy Now.
Laser Güdümlü. 😂🤙🤙
Good testing site to test out new systems for the future fights
Nice!
Go Tanks Gluttony !🤤🤤
The Archangel can carry 12 Hellfire missiles, 10 GBU-58 Mk-81 bombs, six GBU-12 Mk-82 bombs, 48 laser-guided rockets, 12 UMTAS laser-guided missiles, or a mix of the above.
The point of the drone is that its small and undetectable something carrying that much would be far to big to cruise in the air for 24 hours and scout the enemies. Bayraktar is also the cheapest so Ukraine gets alot for their money
The U.S. is to supply the much needed guided missiles to compliment the bayraktar for Ukraine forces.
Aleluya esto es lo q.este pais necesita para derrotar el enemigo me encanta .
Ther was a movie: "A man for all seasons." According to this movie I must say: Russians are liar for all seasons.
The switchblades would be right on time. The switchblades actually works better for maneuver once it becomes a conventional battle. The switchblade will be the front line troops' best counter battery munition. It will be an artillery and combined arms maneuver battle. They just need that RQ4 Global Hawk flying west of the Dnieper River to help. or at least the E-8 JSTARS flying off the coast of Crimea.
We sent 10 Switchblade 600,hardly the action of an ally, we should start with 1000 and scale up from there.
@@paulbedichek2679 They did not say how many was in the last $100 mil shipment.
@@paulbedichek2679 10 Switchblade Systems with 10 drones each is a 1,000. Typical of the US Army way of doing things..."crawl, walk, run". Right now they are in the crawl phase. They don't have enough personnel trained on the system. Demand will be based on what Ukrainian Army thinks it can use and need.
I love how people think we have an endless supply of munitions.
@@Senaleb The US? Yes,for this conflict we have unlimited weapons we have vast stocks and can contract for assembly lines to reopen, this is th best use of my tax dollars ever a huge percentage of Americans agree.
