November 22 – United States of America has realized the delivery to Ukraine of radar systems destined to fight mine throwing calculations of the enemy, permitting the use of this armament in the ATO zone – Lieutenant Steve Warren, quoted by the official Pentagon site. Up to now, the U.S. Army Information Department has placed three light systems of counteracting mine fires.

This is the first section of 20 such systems which should be given to Ukraine, noted Warren.

Delivery of the rest will be done during the next weeks. “The radar system identifies cannon rounds fired in your direction and calculates the coordinators from which the opponent fired the shots, making it possible to reply (to wound the opponent),” explained the official Pentagon representative. Steve Warren emphasized: “Ukrainian Armed Forces specify how, when, and where they will utilize the given system,” specified the announcement. “Ukrainian soldiers can connect the radar systems with the system of artillery fire, or they can react (to the mine firings) through the assistance of ground-based troops.” The radar systems are provided to Ukraine at no cost, within the package of unrepeatable assistance of USA, totaling $118 million dollars.

P.S.: Please spread this appeal as much as possible.
