actually speaking, these are the systems of the russian federation, the sniper artillery that ukraine received from its partners is just the beginning of the rearmament for weapons of a newer generation, these are the weapons that are superior to the russians by a generation , and if we take purely artillery, then here it is necessary to talk about the ammunition itself, such smart ammunition or smart german or excalibur or bonus eye ammunition, they are able to shoot eh at 70 km and eh they are divided, some of them can even hit two targets at once and eh hit the upper the hemisphere is where russian weapons are the least protected, that is, these are exactly the things that can ensure such a counteroffensive, but

unfortunately, i cannot say that i have seen that the conditions have already been completely prepared, i hope that although b this aid package, i don't know when it will arrive , which was signed by joe biden the other day and which provides for a huge amount of munitions for rczdv himax e-e f and maybe e-e missiles can be delivered there. it seems to me that it may be quite possible that it will be there it was also about missiles for anti-aircraft systems on sams e that means that in the near future ukraine will also receive anti-aircraft missile complexes with an average range of 23-40 km e again, if we were to receive such air defense systems - it would be very powerful

to ensure the movement of the ukrainian defense forces to the south with the aim of knocking out the enemy of our land and indeed if there were even a small number of them themselves well, until now the conversation was about literally a few launchers on sams but if uh german eyes will fit together with it iris systems, yes, it will already be, and under the conditions of a significant number of missiles, it will already be such a rather powerful force, especially since we remember after the madrid summit, when biden listed what ukraine should receive, the package mentioned 12 unmanned aircraft systems, we then i was just thinking that it could be a gray eagle and if so, then under the conditions of just the support of the mppo system,

such drones could operate and uh then well, there could be very powerful serious strikes uh and uh, it seems to me that the russian russian group at least in the south, they would not be able to stand it. well, this is approximately how it looks in my imagination, in my calculations regarding the use of heimers , information appeared that on the night of august 8, high-precision missiles of this installation were struck at the points of temporary deployment of the occupying forces on the industrial sites in various areas of melitopol , the mayor of the city, ivan fedorov, reported this to his telegram channel, according to preliminary data, a significant amount of military equipment and manpower of the occupiers was destroyed in advance - this is more than the russian occupiers, well

in fact, you have already mentioned this aid that was announced by joe biden and today it should be signed there. this aid is the allocation of aid for 1 billion dollars. the americans want to give ukraine much more modern weapons and in sufficient quantity, well, a sufficient relative quantity when we talk about parity. weapons that are in the ukrainian army, which our army receives from our western partners and from all the weapons that are in russia, but perhaps they are less modern, with which all warehouses starting from the kursk region are overwhelmed ending with vladivostok, there are numerous formations that have remained in the russian army since the time of the soviet union, how about this disparity, because the obvious disparity is in favor of the russian

federation, in what way can this war be won, taking into account the simply incredible amount of that soviet junk that is still left in the russian of the army well, i want to remember now here it seems to me that it would be appropriate to mention the first stage of the war when it is the end of february and march is the month when ukraine actually used the so-called mosquito strategies, that is, high-precision compact weapons that are superior to the enemy for generations, and this was achieved using mosquito strategies, when there are many such relatively cheap compact technologies that are actually integrated into weapons, i mean javelins and stinger and

then stars year uh, british means of defense, uh, these things and ufos, uh, this grenade launcher, these things made it possible to destroy more powerful and numerous equipment, the same actually began to happen in the second half of july, uh, when uh, and it continues and now that ukraine has fewer weapons in terms of the number of weapons, that is, fewer weapons and even less ammunition, but due to the fact that they are high-tech - these are weapons. almost enough to have parity, but in order to introduce the counteroffensive, we need not just

to have a priority, but to surpass, that is, really, this package worth a billion dollars, which provides for a significant amount of powerful ammunition get it just right. it seems to me that the additional opportunities that can provide the conditions for a counter-offensive are not yet the counteroffensive itself, but at least the conditions that will demonstrate to the enemy, what is happening psychologically in addition to the fact that the personnel of the enemy are being killed there. what is military? equipment is being destroyed in addition to this , an even more powerful thing is happening, psychological pressure on the enemy is evidence and in practice a demonstration in practice that

ukraine sees everything there and can destroy everything, that is powerful intelligence and er powerful strikes and having these psychological advantages are huge, you can force the enemy to actually bring him to a state of panic and er this is actually carried out now with er these high-precision strikes because when the enemy sees that they themselves are killing civilians residents are mostly powerless against the military and at the same time they receive from the military such very powerful high-precision blows this definitely destroys their psyche and destroys their perception of the reality of what is happening around them they feel

unprotected at any point where they are , and this insecurity destroys them, in fact, it destroys them, and for us, this is the preparation of one counter-attack. i absolutely support the idea that the counter-offensive itself cannot be rushed because that you can't risk it and you can't do it so that, that is, the counteroffensive when it is completely ready, we will see it. it will be seen from the behavior of the russian soldiers and officers that they will actually be broken even before the start of these battles , that's exactly what it is er, this is an adequate provision of actions in modern high-tech warfare. i want to

emphasize here that the ukrainian army has already started to introduce a new generation of war. well, of course, thanks to western weapons, but all the same, the ukrainians are doing it. especially not the germans and the french. and when the ukrainians do it, everyone can see it, and the whole world counts with it. in fact , today ukraine is such an amazing nation that saves not only europe, but the whole world from this putin plague. thank you, valentina, i will remind our viewers that we are working live on the espresso tv channel as well as on our platforms on youtube and facebook below you can see the link to our

social networks please subscribe to our social networks we are working for you for those who are now watching us online on youtube and facebook i ask to like this video and also subscribe to our communication channels well, take part in our survey today we are asking you on youtube about the following: do you support the idea of ​​banning russians from entering ukraine for 50 years ? at this moment, 76 e-e viewers voted and 77% say that they support this idea. there are three options for answers. please come and vote. it is important for us to know your opinion. well, in the meantime , information appeared that the first german artillery installations had arrived in ukraine cheetah this is reported by the operational command south. and these are the first three german anti-aircraft self-propelled artillery

installations, they hit the target at a distance of 100 m to 4 km. the crew is up to three people, the driver, the commander, the gunner, the complexes will cover the objects infrastructure from attacks by rotorcraft and aircraft at low and above low altitudes, the installation is based on the chassis of the tank and the leopard 1, there is a gun, two 35 mm guns and two radars that fix the target at a distance of up to 15 km, the main ammunition is 320 shells for hitting air targets, the rate of fire 550 shots from each gun per minute, well, powerful weapons are coming to ukraine well, well, of course, everything depends on how quickly the ukrainian army will adapt and master this equipment, and how this equipment will arrive at the front

sometimes, since we are constantly talking about the southern front and we understand that the main theater of hostilities will now take place there, we do not forget about the eastern front either, because the situation in donbas remains very difficult, we know that all months ago choygusi was preparing for putin that the so-called special military operation has achieved its goal, they have already reached the administrative border of the luhansk region , although this did not happen said president zelensky, we are watching, our army is doing everything possible to stop russian terror and cause the occupiers as many losses as possible avdiyivka on foot maryinka bakhmutskyi and other hot areas in the

donetsk region are taking away the main efforts and unfortunately, many lives are difficult in the kharkiv region in the south of our state where the occupiers are trying to concentrate forces, the key thing now is still weapons for our defense, weapons from partners , president zelenskyi talks about weapons, weapons , weapons, once again, weapons, at the same time, we understand that western countries and their resources are also limited not so limitless as we understand if russia can lose 1800 tanks in this war probably it is uh tank army of some middle country maybe even half less in not eastern europe or in western europe at the same time we don't we hear so far about the resumption of ukrainian arms production, because the military-industrial complex

was partially hit by russian missiles and russian aircraft, and yet, should we talk about restoration now? the production of certain weapons, which are no less important and no less powerful than western weapons and, of course, less expensive in the production and implementation of these projects. well, it is not only possible, but it is necessary to do this because, on the one hand, we remember a couple of months ago ben volosa , the minister of defense of great britain, frankly stated that the west was not ready for a war of such intensity, and that the west may not have enough resources to keep a double of such intensity, on the other hand, russia really has

their huge reserves. well, about tanks, they mentioned that they lost 1,500 tanks. they lost about 28,500 tanks in their warehouses . of course, this is very old equipment and now they will probably be able to make it there. well, i don’t know from three tanks of water. maybe yes, somehow, the same ural wagon factory that we remember is the largest tank manufacturer in russia and stopped due to a lack of components . now this factory reported that by the end of the year it can make 35 t-72 tanks. that is, there are resources are decreasing and decreasing, that’s how it is now relatively, but the resources are decreasing, but russia will be preparing for an even more brutal war in the future, if

only if we do not take care of it in an adequate way , what should we do in our country, it happened that we have almost all the line of silent weapons that we receive from the west, they are either in development or have already been actually crushed. well, let's take, for example, the same rsdv, but we will not compare it with hymars, because hymars is already dual-purpose, it can also do this in hall 6, and launch one operational-tactical missile, we have these technologies a little separated, we have the ability to launch a volley of 12 missiles at a distance of 110 km. i mean the alder, which is already ready, in fact, which could be adopted if ukraine was a little bit well, it was more lively, and if

the military-political leadership then in the xx-xxi years referred to the legal armament of a more serious system, this is if we take the rczv, if we take the missile itself, then we know that we have a missile, our coastal missile complex neptune proved his characteristics of its capabilities, in particular, the fact that it killed the flagship of the russian and black sea fleets, the cruiser moscow, with two launches, but the neptune missile can also have a different version, as somehow it is not a coastal complex and as a ground complex that will not shoot at the ship e- it will shoot at a ground target and it can be done, moreover, if neptune has a range of 280 km, then now

the gunsmiths say that it is quite possible to increase the range of such a missile to 500 km , so if to take up now it may be a matter of common interest production because, let's say, there are countries that are actually the last to give to us, well, the same slovakia itself, the czech republic, poland gives a lot, and with such countries, the baltic countries, it would be possible to do a little cooperation, and even under the conditions that the ukrainian defense industry is now less is protected and can be fired upon very seriously e what e it is precisely because of this that it would be possible to make the final assembly of the missile, for example in some e-e country of central eastern europe temporarily for example e-e but all the same, such

cooperation would make the product itself cheaper for let's say for the participants it would be very important now let's move on, we're asking for the sam and we're asking for e-e and airiksets e-e anti-aircraft missile complexes and by the way, since 2016 we have been developing the koral anti-aircraft missile complex with a range of 30 km and but again, the developers say that they can increase the range to 40 km, that is, make their own ukrainian nasans, let’s say so. and this is quite real . and football purposes that is, it will shoot down missiles, these are not very powerful things. ukraine has several developments of powerful drones , this is the operational-tactical drone sokil 300

, which is very powerful, it can also be tactical drones, for example, the same helicopter-type drone that was demonstrated again during the arms exhibition of security if ukraine by the way, it is possible to manufacture helicopters in ukraine and this has been proven . moreover, the complex of high-precision high-precision damage in ukraine has been created and tested since 2017, and such a helicopter could control a swarm of drones of the same small helicopters, which carried two anti-tank missiles each. that's all. that 's all. to do, but of course it costs a lot of money,

it is a lot of resources, but ukraine has no way out , it is necessary to ensure the growth of its defense potential, and the times will come when the western countries , under the conditions, for example, that the hot phase of the war will end and putin will be preparing for himself again, or putin or his successor will be preparing for the next war against ukraine, and we have to prepare to repel such aggression, and here we need to measure very clearly and calculate very clearly. do we need to build infrastructure? to build such a defense potential that will not allow the new putin to come here with a war well, it seems to me that in this situation ukraine has little choice, and russia will not go anywhere from us and whoever is in power in the russian federation sooner or later late it can be repeated with some periodicity i mean after our victory and we still

have to militarize the economy one way or another if we didn't want it how if we didn't talk about the fact that it's very bad when uh-uh there are military units around and a lot of weapons, a lot of warehouses, well, in a situation where, uh, almost three thousand kilometers or 4,000 km away, we have an enemy from the north, from the east, whether it is visible from the south, then obviously we must always be ready to repel this enemy, by the way about the northern of our neighbor about belarus, the reports of the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine say that there is a certain reorganization of russian forces located on the territory of the republic of belarus. self-proclaimed president lukashenko constantly says that we must always be ready for the fact that we will fight

the west, well at least this is how he advertises that we have to protect western ukraine from the nato countries of the united states of america, how likely is it that lukashenko will already fully include his army in this war, or is he now in such a state that he is not the one who decides and it can happen without his knowledge? well, it seems to me that the situation looks like this, the more lukashenko says about the readiness of the brotherly russian people to go to uh, fight against the west, the less he wants to do it. we remember that just in july, he announced about this readiness, and then uh, it's time for such a vacuum, we don't hear anything from him, we hear

about some uh- e checks that there are any training is carried out there and everything else, but everyone realizes and even putin realizes that the demotivated belarusians are not interested at all, it will be more of a burden than some kind of addition to russian groups, because if, relatively speaking, well, if on the territory of belarus if there were no russian troops, then this issue would be removed from the agenda because it is about 50 to 50 to give the order to go to ukraine to sign a death sentence that the belarusians themselves would destroy this dictator who has been around for a long time to all

fed up and they just uh because of the support of russia, well, they put up with this uh, this situation, now if we say that putin putin needs belarus in this war only for one thing that he can really do, but here you have to look, for this you need to be a moment very seriously, i think that this could be some kind of last - the last argument for putin is to transfer the war from russian-ukrainian to the international level so that he actually took part here took part in the participation of the countries of the region, moreover, i do not rule out that in case the involvement of belarus in the war, uh, putin made sure that the belarusian army would somehow

try to attack a nato country. not a little, but seriously lost the sense of reality, he expects that in the case of such a scenario, firstly, the war acquires the status of a regional such a large international conflict, and secondly, if he touches with his hands lukashenko to the nato country. this is such an opportune moment to force too many to sit down for negotiations and end this war. it is not so important under what conditions. yes, the conditions may already be there. of some clear argument, and the ukrainian army will now

press and press him, and all the more so if russian groups are eliminated from the south, then very hot times are coming for putin, times that will determine whether he will survive physically at all or not, actually, this is the story as far as lukashenko is concerned, he clearly does not want to be involved in this adventure and wants to somehow soak it up, let's say it so as not to get into such a hellish situation , thank you, thank you, valentina, thank you for the conversation, take care myself and my relatives for our viewers, i will say that it was valentyn batrak, a writer , a military expert, the director of the center for the study of the army, conversion and disarmament, we are friends, we are conducting a survey on facebook and youtube, we are

asking you about the following do you support the idea banning russians from entering ukraine for 50 years on youtube, uh, our viewers voted yes 77%, no 9%, and 14% is better for all 100 years, that is, 91% of our viewers believe that russians should not enter the territory of ukraine at all for at least 50 years. these are the results of our survey . watch our broadcast for today. i am finishing the program tomorrow. we will meet with you as usual at 1:00 p.m. take care of yourself and your loved ones. goodbye . our life will not be the same as before . the knights of reconstruction work, the work is carried out according to
