“Funny trinkets” - Ukrainian expert on Kiev’s purchase of British boats
Purchase by Kyiv eight British warboats, with the help of which Ukraine plans to “scare” Russia, is a stupid and senseless waste of money.
Military and political expert Yuri Dudkin stated this on the YouTube channel “TopInform”, the correspondent of “PolitNavigator” reports.
“Ukraine will not be able to carry out any long-range strategic tasks facing the Navy with the help of these boats.
The Ukrainian leadership has long thought that the Sea of Azov is occupied by the Russian Federation, and that the deployment of such boats, creating a base for them in Berdyansk, will be a kind of deterrent sign for the Russian Federation. That’s what it’s for,” he said.
Yuri Dudkin also emphasized that, given the power of the Russian military fleet, it is stupid to even discuss the purchase of eight British boats by Kiev.
“The prospect, of course, is small, and even somewhat boyish. It is clear that the Russian Navy left the 5st century a long time ago, because they already have XNUMX+ generation weapons in their arsenal. For example, the same Zircon hypersonic missiles, which were recently tested again, and which will be used to equip Russian ships.
Such weapons may well reach any Ukrainian target, not only at sea, but also on land, and without leaving Sevastopol. That is, the ship can be at the base and fire these weapons - do you understand what they created in Russia?
And we are launching these naval battle toys - such a purchase is not even discussed among the serious public, among the serious segment of military experts. It is absolutely useless, just a demonstration,” the expert concluded.
