Ukraine this week received one of the largest foreign military aid packages since the start of the war with Russia, with new supplies entering the country tanks Germans and British, which will allow him to counter the expected spring counter-offensive with greater mobility and firepower.
“They are distinguished by high technical and technological capabilities, they are far superior to Soviet-era models and will significantly increase the efficiency of units in carrying out combat missions,” he told Efe about the qualitative leap that the dispatch of Ukrainian military analyst Oleksandr Kovalenko made.
The expert points out that the “armored vehicles” that go to Ukraine Together with tanks “They are an important component in the assault operations” that Kyiv will need to recapture the territories occupied by Russia as it was already in the second half of last year in the east and south.
The analyst cites as an example of the successful use of semi-armored vehicles the Ukrainian attack on Kharkov, during which, from September to October last year, it was possible to almost completely liberate this territory in the northeast Ukraine which was partially occupied Russia.
The presence of sufficient armored vehicles, Kovalenko explains, “makes it possible to save the lives” of troops going on the offensive and being subjected to enemy artillery fire. In the same time tanks “Provide fire support to the assault units.”
“Without them, the counteroffensive could have ended with a lot of casualties and mediocre results,” he says. ” tanks necessary not only to resist units tanks the enemy, but also to penetrate the fortified areas, ”explains the specialist.
Challenger and Leopard
Except tanks Challenger 2 promised by UK and eighteen tanks Leopard 2 provided by Germany, Ukraine in recent days received from the government of Berlin 40 Marder infantry vehicles. Also this week, Portugal sent three tanks Leopard 2.
Poland has already sent 14 more tanks Leopard 2 and Kyiv expects to receive soon tanks The American Abrams and dozens of Bradley armored personnel carriers, also commanded by Washington. Spain announced it would send six tanks Leopard 2 to Ukraine after Easter.
tanks and Western armored vehicles coming into service with the army Ukraine they will also help Kyiv partially offset losses accumulated during the war, Kovalenko says.
The Importance of Ammunition
Just as decisive as tanks and armored personnel carriers will be that Ukraine Get in time the ammunition necessary for effective artillery. “Today, Russian troops are firing 15,000 rounds a day in the war zone, while Ukraine she can only afford 5,000,” the expert says, explaining this by the “lack of artillery and ammunition.”
The European Union promised to supply Ukraine with one million 155-mm artillery shells.
Analysts such as Nikolai Beleskov of the National Institute for Strategic Studies in Ukrainewarned that this ammunition should begin to arrive in sufficient quantities before June, so that Kyiv could launch a counteroffensive with guarantees.
Kovalenko also talks about the need to increase the supply of mortar shells of 120, 82 and 60 mm caliber.
“The shortage in this area is clearly visible in the Bahamut region,” he points out, referring to this city in the east. Ukraine where the Kievan forces continue to resist, unable to stop the slight but steady advance Russia.
Another element that would complement the arrival tanks and armored vehicles manufactured by NATO countries would be the delivery of longer-range missile systems capable of hitting targets in the occupied territories Russia.
“This would allow us to hit their logistics and command and control system, which would increase the effectiveness of the counteroffensive,” Kovalenko concludes.
