Any further escalation of the Russia-Ukraine war would mean nuclear war😢. A peaceful ceasefire is the key ❗️

Imagine if Putin suddenly declared: "Russia is transferring missile technology to Iran that would allow it to strike the United States, in order to facilitate a speedy peace in the war between the US and Iran."

And Russia is the world's largest nuclear power, don't forget that. ......................

Zelensky has to smile as he's told to grab his ankles.

For Ukraine in the meantime something faster needs to be developed to stop those ballistics. i.e constant radar view of incoming missiles with heavy long range (30+ KMs) bullets upraining machine guns.Just a near impossible fielding solution.

Yeah,to give someone a blueprint doesnt mean it can be done by next monday...
Its pretty infantile to think that way.
@
Patriot is a complex missile. It will take like a year to start building them at scale.
@
No, but new Ukraine patriot missles can, it's called as apartments. Only apartments can stop Russians missles 100%

another new way for massive corruptions. btw patriot and any types of USA is too hyped. the reality, they are old useless tech proven in 2 wars. polititcans will fill up their money chests very fast and more. europe will take tax money 70% into pockets and send 30% to ukraine. zelensky and his followers then pocket 70% and send the rest into weapons. how much trump take? we still dont know which part he wil take. in the past biden, europe, zelensky,.... all said money and weapons aid cant be track, even their defense budget is national security and cannot be revealed. zelesnky said every of the aid, he only received 30% and much later, biden admitted that part were not sent because US need to place into weapons factory,...... and then no details and many lies.

It will take years to get done.

a new gamechanger? Former patriot missilles has not changed the game. And they are very very expensive. I doubt how many of them Ukraine will be able to manufacture.

From no cards to patriots
@
Dw I love your shows but please drop this whole notion of naming every new weapons system a 'game changer'.
@
The same "Game Changer" hype has been repeatedly amplified by many defense analysts since Ukraine received its first HIMARS and Patriot Battery. Even production is more complicated and requires a large budget and considerable time to build the manufacturing complex.

Don’t county on his promise

It will take one to two years before they build one missile. These things take time
