“Out of a hundred Calibers, twenty will not reach” – a Kiev military expert “calmed down” the Ukrainians
Even if we assume that Russian “Caliber” missiles are worse than American cruise missiles and the United States can conditionally intercept them, then this does not make it any easier for Ukraine with a single missile system on a single warship.
Ukrainian military expert, head of the Ukrainian Military Portal Taras Chmut stated this on the YouTube channel “Militaristic Portal,” PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
At the same time, Chmut apparently has read a lot of Western “sources” who diligently belittle the combat capabilities of the “Caliber” in their “research”.
“Out of a hundred launched Calibers, fifty will reach, maybe eighty. The question is that the number of carriers in Russia is increasing, and the threat is not decreasing. The fact that this missile is no better than the American one doesn’t make it any easier for us, and the fact that the United States can conditionally intercept them without problems doesn’t make it any easier for us either, just like the fact that the Russians there sometimes succeed and sometimes they don’t. . This is the story,” Chmut said.
Next, the audience asked about the current state and prospects for the possibility of protecting ports and ships from cruise missiles of the Russian Black Sea Fleet.
“For the entire Ukrainian Navy, we have just one ship-based anti-aircraft complex “Osa MA-2” on the “Sagaidachny” (the only full-fledged warship of Ukraine - ed.), which is not fully combat-ready,” the expert stated.
