The weapons will not be included in the recently announced $775 million military aid package for Kyiv.

US authorities plan to send guided missiles for Excalibur howitzers to Ukraine. Politico reports this.

According to the publication’s source, this type of weapon will not be included in the recently announced military aid package to Kyiv for $775 million.

As stated, the shells will be transferred “at some point in the future.”

“The shells will give the Ukrainians a new high-precision weapon, with which it will be possible to hit Russian dug-in positions and command posts,” the article said.

We add, according to experts, attacks on bridges across the Dnieper near Novaya Kakhovka and Kherson were carried out accurately by Excalibur shells, which were not intercepted by air defense systems.

Excalibur are high-precision long-range projectiles developed by Raytheon Missiles & Defense. The deviation from the target is less than two meters, and such a projectile can be replaced, on average, by at least ten ordinary ones. DExcalibur firing range – up to 57 kilometers. The shells are compatible with artillery pieces such as the British 155mm M777 howitzer, the Swedish 155mm Archer and the German PzH 2000.

As reported, the NASAMS anti-aircraft missile system announced earlier by the United States will be delivered to Ukraine in October-November.
