stabilize its positions and then the battle will develop more successfully as far as the range is concerned , then the main artillery system if we are talking about the barrel artillery of the russian army, it is the cold howitzer 2 from the 19 city c and its towed version 2а 65 m became, in addition, they are older systems 2 s3 acacia uh where are the 20s, i think theoretically there are on our part of the front, i haven’t seen them, but it is possible that there are already second particles of the second echelon in some uh so-called lpr dnr they can also be like that if we we speak about old artillery systems, then their range is 17 km, if we are talking about new artillery systems and bmsta s, then of course the projectile there is 25 km actively reactive 29 if we are talking about modern nato self-propelled artillery systems, then already

40 km. that is, this is already a significant gain in range and first of all, it allows our artillery to hit the enemy’s positions at a considerable depth, i.e. such a safe rear for them is significantly removed from the front line, or vice versa if the enemy has a significant advantage in the number of fire means - this allows our artillery systems to work from a safe distance, and the enemy, in order to somehow introduce effective counter -battery fire, must pull his artillery systems directly to the front line, where they can be hit by the less long- range systems that we have left from the soviet army, even there somehow even mortars if they go close enough along the front, and it should also be noted that if we are concentrating now on the 155 caliber, there is also a 105 caliber, now great britain has started supplying light

of artillery systems l119, well, a 105 mm well-grounded gun is also an extremely important artillery system for our army because it is extremely mobile, it does not require a significant investment of time for deployment , it does not require heavy tractors , that is, it is important that this caliber should be in nato someday then they mainly switched to 155-caliber 105-caliber light units such as the airborne forces, etc. due to the fact that there may be a lot of shells for these guns in ukraine, so the rearmament of our army on guns and cannons, it would also be quite expedient , that is, great mobility and a sufficient number of shells, well, this is an interesting observation, an interesting comment , but now, relatively speaking, at the moment on the front line

with ukraine, we have about 1,500 years of creating artillery of various calibers if we take into account the receipt of aid from the western countries, relatively speaking, we have 400 large-caliber howitzers there, 1500 and 400. but they have a larger number, a larger number of shells, but a shorter range, we have fewer guns, but more powerful ammunition and more range is it possible to talk about the fact that in this way it is possible to balance this russian advantage in some way, what conclusions would you draw eh olezh well , first of all, we must mention this fact - it is already like a month eh at a distance of approximately 70 km from the line of the front in the russian federation, the cotton is so beautiful, i say, and this has ceased to even be news, the reservenko opens a list of news , and there again someone, someone, there, the composition of the colors of the europeans flew into the air, what does this mean,

actually ? and does not become it is important how many guns the enemy actually has, if they have shells, deception is possible, that is, it is possible well, there is simply such a way as to reduce the effect of the enemy's artillery by leaving it without ammunition, that is, abstractly, they may have 2,000 barrels, but only 100 shells for these 2,000 barrels that is, well, well, it’s all the same, how much scrap metal do they have, and given the fact that the strikes are systematic and exactly according to the ammunition warehouses, they are brought in regularly. that’s exactly the idea of ​​our general staff in not giving preference of the enemy in artillery systems. it is precisely because of the creation that there is a lack of ammunition. well, of course, it is necessary to take into account the fact that in the core headquarters of the russian federation, well, it is not exactly clinical bicilisi-associations, and they will be, and they are

already doing it, they have moved the ammunition warehouses to a longer range, but here is a surprise it turns out that we can destroy the same warehouses at a distance of about two hundred kilometers, a verified case in henichesk, eh, there, the range from the launch areas should be approximately 222-250 km, eh, a case from the saka airbase, and eventually in any in the case even if they transfer certain warehouses with ammunition at a distance of 150 km, abstractly, it doubles the burden of logistics, the delivery of these shells to the front line, that is, requires more than twice the transport, twice the capacity of the warehouse to return these ammunition, and taking into account the fact that there is no mechanization there, it is simply manual labor then this is simply a big burden on the logistics service of the russian federation itself, which is relatively simple from the old, active, well, historical space of realities for the metal services of the russian army, which is the weakest link in

in principle, vyacheslav says oleg. how would you now describe the use of heimers, because we gradually switched to them after realizing that artillery from artillery, but there are options of such a high-tech level, and that's right. and it fits in that what was special demonstrated by the combat operations in ukraine in relation to the use of heimers were there any or were there any such highlights that once stood out from what was previously in the american army regarding this type of weapons, we understand that the american army, it has not faced such an enemy as our army, that is, an enemy that is numerically superior to it, and therefore the american experience is the use of its armed forces against a larger

enemy . weapons and really, mr. oleg is absolutely right that artillery is ammunition, if artillery does not have ammunition, then it does not matter how many guns you have, because ukraine found these weak ones links of the russian military machine and is now knocking out warehouses with munitions, e-e, power points for the concentration of troops there, e-e, repair facilities, and so on . we need to preserve these limitations, that is why our practice of using high-mars is quite the same as guerrilla. that is, we cannot afford to stand in some stationary positions and methodically shoot down targets there within range, i.e. ukraine extremely effectively, firstly, chose the targets for

these systems, and secondly , it uses these quantitatively limited means as effectively as possible in order to turn them into an element, well, if not of the strategic level, then of the operational level. this is precisely because we understand that the russian army as eh the heir of the soviet, it has the main type of ground troops - it is the artillery of artillery batteries in russia more than motorized rifle companies, how do we take anti-tank howitzer jet mortars and so on and so on and in connection with the fact that artillery, it depends on shells and when it remains without equipment, it cannot, er, act effectively, it cannot act effectively, artillery, the russian army falls into the support because it is accustomed, the artillery clears the way for armored infantry with its barrage of fire, and now it is happening less effectively. we cannot say that er russian artillery has completely lost its potential no of course no is it significant enough

but this already significantly affects its capabilities and, in turn, our ability there tank and infantry units to use the results of artillery strikes and in the donbass, we can see this as the most relief, which means that after the capture of lysychansk , russian successes, to put it mildly, are insignificant during the rather long interlocutory trial. would have abstained. maybe i can’t say that. because you understand, this is the result of the battle for that of verdonetsk, which vysychansk is the result of the influence of many factors, i can’t say unequivocally what if we had himers, that is, we still

got it, but the chances of retention would be more. the installations that we have are quite enough for us. and they actually confirmed the thesis of the deputy minister of defense of the satellite states that the systems that are in ukraine are enough for them. tell our viewers what they are based on. that our city of defense says that we need 50 launchers and ideally 100. well, here it should be noted that i am not talking about the fact that there is a sufficient number of a, the fact that there will hardly be more of them, that is , we will be forced to work with what was given, that is, whether it is enough or not this is exclusively, in my opinion, the moment of the analysis of the general staff, which forms the need for why we are faced with what we have . here is such a number, which according to public data is a little more than two dozen, for

understanding, just in one month, 5-4 years at the same time locket-martin sheep is the largest company in the world, which also produces jamalaris missiles for heilmars. it has a capacity of 9-10 thousand such projectiles per year, in general, at the level of 2020 or 21, it was produced 50,000 jamal flights in general , in total, that is, it is clear that we are probably limited to a certain number of projectiles per month, if they are objective, if we cannot release, for example, more than 5,000 projectiles, then we will simply not be given additional systems because they will also oppose ours, well, for nothing , that is, all the outfits will be in the same situation as why do you need a weapon for which there are no weapons in principle, and in these conditions, uh, well, the only

chance to use them at a pace of 24/7 with by constant maneuvering of switching between er operational areas of the front, i.e. using them in the most effective mode, simply without interruption and that's it, but already explain this kind of feint poland ordered 500 gamers 500, i.e. what will it er do with them based on the calculations that you said p before that well, there is a possibility that they and the poles aspect of this is extremely important, a feature that should be simply borrowed and done like they do when they purchase any weapon in sufficient quantity , they localize its production in poland and in general, for them, this is the main condition in general, the procurement of their weapons in relation to the high martians, most likely they will also localize their production, including missiles, well, there is one more aspect, we use the high martian profession at the level of a tactical missile complex and

in fact, this is a system that involves the use of conventional unguided rockets from a distance of up to 40 km, that is, a kind of hurricane due to the high cost of this system for ukraine and the fact that we use it precisely as a long-range, high-precision rocket system, we moved it to a higher place, roughly speaking. -he is a high-mars that hits only a jet volley with ordinary shells, this is a hurricane. and with high-precision jamo lores , this is an elikha, that is, and most likely for the poles , the purchase of exactly 500 eymars is, uh, in general the purchase of universal launchers, because there is another important aspect of haimar - it is a universal launcher of taste. it can throw both unguided active projectiles and jamala features and ballistic missiles atakams, and by the way, there is already an opportunity to use them for launching such missiles as anti-aircraft aim 120, that is, and for all this

, this launch standard e-e it foresees the possibility of integration of other missiles, which is also what poland is betting on. on more powerful long-range missiles and considering that this is a series of silver bullets of the ukrainian army of your assessment, of course not, that is, it is an important element that directly affects the course of hostilities at the front, but still, the main burden currently lies on the ukrainian infantry on ukrainian armored forces on ukrainian artillery. in other words, heimers are the means that will allow the troops to act more effectively at the front, more quickly, to destroy

the enemy, but we won’t fight a war with heimers alone. we will win and here there is such an aspect. yes, we understand that we have a limited number of e-e launchers and the amount of ammunition for them and there is such a moment e-e there is a certain limited number of worthy targets because, well, it is not possible to destroy e-e there every day several large ammunition warehouses of the russian army because they may not be scouted and they can distribute them to smaller ones, that is, to hit the same warehouse, let it be there 70 km from the front line, it must first be found, and here the question is how much and means of intelligence there satellites, as if we are talking about assistance from

nato countries by other means, intelligence development , and so on. and so on. how quickly, uh, all these means of gathering information do they allow you to identify targets, uh, against which the use of hyperts is appropriate, because well it is not appropriate to shoot such a missile at some infantry unit there. although if there were a lot of them, it would be possible. then we can win the war. we understand that this is not a visual fantasy, so there must be worthy goals for the farmers, and we need to find them first, we have two minutes left . now briefly summarizing, please tell me what you think about the strikes on crimea, what was it olezhe, what do you think we

destroyed russian planes and objects, i can only repeat the most likely options. stage for 21 years, according to the statement of the minister of defense, the terrain was already 80% ready, that is, we had 1.5 years to prove that the development was actually the third option - it is a modified neptunna, this is indicated by the fact that the saka airfield is a target located close to the sea and in fact, the development of neptune for the destruction of ground words was also carried out , and there remains one more real option - this is the action of special operations forces, at the same time, all kinds of kamikaze drones and bairaktars can be excluded. due to the low power of their explosives, for example, you in general, it has a capacity of 50 kg, and in general, the mass of armored vehicles is 50 kg, and it says that there is also a lot of explosives on it, and there are explosives somewhere at the level of, well,

more than 200 kg. that’s right, and here we are there for this conversation, unfortunately, time has run out, but we will return to this conversation literally in a week thanks to you and our viewers, and i will remind the viewers that we are your interlocutors oleg katkov e.e. chief editor of defense express and vyacheslav tseluiko military analyst and now a serviceman of the special operations forces follow our programs on the espresso vitau channel in recent years, long before the war, in the context of key reforms being carried out in ukraine, we often had to hear about the judicial criteria of integrity, the supreme council of justice, the qualification commission, the ethics council, to understand this confusing list of intricate definitions is not so easy. although all of them is a set of transformations that should

improve the judicial system in ukraine, eliminate bribery, corruption and bring the judiciary to european standards. so in the new project judicial control, we will untangle this gordian knot of institutional changes and also carefully monitor those who are entrusted with their implementation so that the traditions of the ukrainian judiciary finally become civilized and really ensure the protection of rights and freedom diana and our program will have its own traditions we start with news the ethical council held the first interviews with candidates for the position of a member of the supreme court on august 10, three candidates from the congress of judges of ukraine, nataliya kovalenko, mykhailo kobel and eduard bondarev, all listened the online interviews were held in closed mode, i.e. without live broadcasting on the internet, as it was until

february 24, what questions were asked and how did the candidates refute the doubts that they were not aware of the results of the interviews, the ethical council will announce at a separate meeting in ukraine, collaborators and traitors continue to be prosecuted two judges, residents of occupied makiyivka and novoazovsk were notified in absentia of suspicion of participation in a terrorist organization, as soon as they are detained, they will face trial and imprisonment free for a term of up to 15 years, a people's deputy from the servant of the people, olga sovhyrya was elected a judge of the constitutional court, contrary to the constitution, she was not checked for compliance.

should reform the constitutional court and implement changes in the supreme council of justice and the higher qualification commission of judges, key bodies of the judicial system, the judicial reform in ukraine began in 2016 and became the most extensive at the time of independence, it was aimed in particular at increasing the level of trust and public accountability of the judiciary, they made appropriate amendments to the constitution on the obligation of an open and transparent competition for the position of a judge , today the selection of judges and their dismissal are responsible for the higher qualification commission of judges and the supreme council of justice, henceforth among the requirements of the eu , the crystal integrity of their composition is also mandatory. last year in july, the verkhovna rada adopted two relevant bills that provide for the reboot of these judicial bodies. for the selection of members of the higher kovaliv commission of judges

, a competitive commission was created to check all candidates for compliance with the criteria of professional ethics and integrity of the higher council of justice , the ethics council is engaged in the council consists of six people, three from the council of judges. decisions on the eve of the war in february, the ethical council just began to check the current members of the vrp and future candidates, then being frightened by the checks of 12 members of the supreme council of justice themselves resigned, the full-scale invasion of russia stopped the work of the council, and the checks of the current members and candidates for the vrp resumed only in may, however, the competitive selection provided for by the competition reform, which was supposed to be as

open and transparent as possible, took place in closed mode, supposedly for security reasons, the ethics council did not broadcast the first the stage of online interviews with candidates for the supreme council of justice, while the state closed access to most public registers, so public control was significant on the contrary, some decisions of the ethical council are at least surprising, except for closing the interview in early may, the council left three members of the vrp whose integrity is questionable, and also recommended candidates with a dubious reputation for the positions, which caused a sharp negative reaction from specialized public organizations. this is how mykhailo zhernakov comments on these decisions the founder of the most famous de jure advocacy and analytical foundation in ukraine, which for the past six years has been working on updating the judicial corps of resonance

let's say, first of all, these approaches of the ethical council to transparency, because the law requires that the singer where they were open, the law requires that the currents be broadcast and so on. that is, this is a direct instruction of the law, and in no way will this be carried out, there will be no trust in the results there will be no trust in the composition of the supreme council of justice in its work if this process is not open and if the public as a whole will not understand how all the members of the rp got there, there are already several members of the supreme council of justice for example they left such people in the positions of incumbents to whom there were many claims both regarding property and regarding the decision on how the interviews for the position of a member of the vrp took place on august 10 and 12, we will tell in the next program, and now let's take a closer look . of the judicial body for compliance with the criteria of

integrity and whether they themselves fully meet them. for example, the judge of the kyiv court of appeal, yuriy tryasun, repeatedly found himself in the field of view of public activists, in particular, due to improper declaration of property, so in declaration for the year 2020, the shaker indicated that in the 14th year he became the owner of a plot of land in the kyiv region with an area of ​​1,200 m², however, according to information from the state register of property rights to immovable property, the judge bought the plot back in 2007 and probably just forgot about it until 2020 to indicate it in the declarations, also a member of the ethics council, yuriy tryasun, has considerable wealth of unknown origin. in the first electronic declaration for 2015, the judge declared $60,000 in cash, which at the nbu exchange rate at that time was almost one and a half million hryvnias, and this

more than one and a half times higher than the declared income of the whole family of the ryasun for 2015. among the questionable decisions made by yuriy ryasun during his judicial career, for example , changing the preventive measure of oleksandr belov from berkut, a suspect in the murder of three maidan residents, the ryasun released him from the pre-trial detention center to house arrest it is possible that the judge was prevented from maintaining objectivity and impartiality in this case by the fact that his own brother, also from berkutiv, worked as a regimental commander and was even awarded the medal from yanukovych for impeccable service to the supreme council of justice, which is now evaluated for integrity by yurii tryasun against himself as a judge of the kyiv court of appeal, previously had eight complaints sent, so analysts are quite

skeptical about such an institutional reset, because it turns out that the responsibility for judicial reform is now placed on those who previously openly sabotaged it, all three members of the medical council who are judges or retired judges who from the ukrainian side are appointed by the council of judges, which in fact openly advocates for the status quo and against reform, this is already a lot the propane address also speaks. why did we call the member of the ethical council, judge yuriy tryasun , and ask him about his integrity? hello, mr. yuriy. congratulations, you are concerned about judicial control , the program on the espresso tv channel, one question. how did you get someone with wealth of unknown origin and a large number of complaints to the ethics council, what i can't say now, but when you before calling a romanian woman in the heat of the moment, at least

that's what president volodymyr zelenskyi , the speaker of the parliament and people's deputies declare. we too we see changes, however, they are unlikely to bring ukraine closer to the eu. at the end of july, the verkhovna rada appointed olga sovgyra as a judge of the constitutional court, this happened in violation of the constitution and agreements with the european union, mykhailo zhernakov is convinced that persons who are politically engaged and who show e loyalty to political parties, which members of the party and it was in the status of a people's deputy for three years, publicly constantly showed clear loyalty to the ruling party, a servant of the people of the weight class, a people's deputy and a permanent representative of the verkhovna rada of ukraine in the constitutional court since 2010, she holds the position of assistant professor of the department of constitutional law of the faculty of law of

the taras shevchenko national university, as a scientist she actually did not support the integration of ukrainian science into the world, there she contributed to the signing of the kharkiv agreements and the continuation of the basing of the russian black sea fleet in crimea, i congratulate on bbc news ukraine broadcast live from london olga palamaryuk works in the studio and today in the issue the attack on the russian air base in saki, what satellite images showed, weapons for ukraine , defense ministers met in copenhagen, what help is promised
