Ukrainian military using US Vietnam war tactics for destroying Russian radars
Ukrainian military using us Vietnam War tactics for destroying Russian Radars the Ukrainian Air Force is trying to adopt a decades old American tactic to neutralize Russian air defenses in the ongoing conflict Business Insider reported dubbed projects wild weasel the US scheme involved high-risk missions in which Pilots had to use their own planes as baits to lure out the enemy’s air defenses during the Vietnam war the strategy was used to suppress surfac to- a missile systems by first tracing their Radars and then striking them with bombs or missiles before they could lock onto the baiting US aircraft now Ukrainian Pilots are trying to mimic this approach by allowing the Russian systems to detect their aircraft before tracing their radar waves back to their source and hitting their presumed location with us-made AGM 88 harm missiles specifically designed to Target an enemy’s radar harm missiles have been used by kiev’s forces since the second half of 2022 it is unclear how many of this type of missile were supplied to Ukraine in March the Pentagon asked Congress to allocate at least $6.5 billion to replenish its stocks which have been depleted over 2 years of constant weapons deliveries to Kiev Bloomberg reported at the time the list of weapons the US military said needed to be replaced included harm missiles among other weapon types the Ukrainian missions are still very dangerous particularly for the wild weasels themselves Frederick Mertens a strategic Analyst at the hag Center for strategic studies told Business Insider he also described the Russian air defenses as the key Target for Ukraine ukrainians use all weapons troops and systems they have at their disposal to suppress and Destroy Russian air defenses the analyst said adding that kev’s Pilots often go far beyond the classic wild weasel missions the Air Force still has difficulties using Western supplied missiles with its Soviet era MiG 29 and su27 Fighters according to American officials last month us under secretary of defense for acquisition and sustainment William laplant admitted to journalists that kiev’s Pilots have to rely on iPads to make their aircraft use Western Arms it is unclear if the risky tactic has been effective Russian Sam operators quickly adapted their tactics Justin Bron a senior research fellow at the london-based think tank Royal United Services Institute told Business Insider the harm launches end up serving a suppressive rather than a destructive purpose he added Russia’s military has not reported any significant harm to its air defenses inflicted by the Ukrainian military moscow’s forces have regularly reported shooting down harm missiles and other Ukrainian projectiles throughout the conflict with the latest instance on April the 16th Russia prepares to capture Kiev Ukraine creates 10 new brigades against a new Russian attack Alexander pavuk commander of the ground forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine has said that Ukraine plans to create 10 new brigades to prepare for a Russian offensive some of them will be formed for the potential defense of Kev pavuk said this in an interview with the economist The Economist notes that one of the most urgent tasks facing pavuk is the creation of 10 new brigades to prepare for a Russian offensive pavuk insists that Ukraine needs more equipment than people in particular there is a significant shortage of artillery and armored vehicles which he hopes the West will provide Ukraine with also part of these new forces 10 brigades will be deployed to defend Kiev the general said that 2 and a half years after the Russian army was blocked in Kiev it has not given up its ambition to finally capture the city defending K remains one of our main concerns no matter how tough it is in the East it is the heart of Ukraine and we know the key role defense of the capital will play in the future pavuk added he said that the Russian army can no longer conduct large-scale raids on several fronts in addition Russia is using missiles that have just come off the assembly line just a few weeks after production rather than from its once huge stockpile Ukraine’s armed forces are also much larger than they used to be this pavuk notes remains a strategic defeat for Russia according to Ukraine’s official estimate Russia has lost more than 400,000 killed captured and wounded the loss of so many soldiers to seize a small part of one region is disproportionate for any rational mind the ground forces Commander believes that in unpopular issues such as mobilization every official must show leadership faced with Mortal danger some citizens panic and this is natural but if the country wants to survive people must overcome the panic and answer the call to fight as they do in countries like Israel however hard it is we have no other choice in an interview with the times Alexander pavuk confirmed that based on Ukrainian intelligence Russia does not indeed have a plan for the possible capture of kiv and sui

Why publicize to the enemy what is working?????
Those who cannot remember history will never re-use what worked in the past 😉
Slava Ukraine 💙💛

Kẻ xâm lược không bao giờ chiến thắng, Putin là tên giết người man rợ
Wild weasels
Ruzzia have lost so many airdefences so they cant protect their oil industri.
"Good Morning Vietnam"
Please ditch this aweful ai voice !!!!
400k "lost captured or wounded", that is completely wrong, it's almost 500k JUST LOST, and it's about 1 million captured or wounded, all together about 1,5 million, probably more, closer to 2 mill.
Weird report… Wild Weasel, now SEAD, first introduced many years ago is by no means an “old” tactic. It has evolved considerably over that time.
Like all tactics, they evolve.
The US still has Wild Weasels. Now carried out by F-16CJ and F-35A.
Just because a ractic began development in 1965 doesn't make modern tactics derived from those 'old'.
The Western media says that Ukraine is losing ground and cannot win anymore. Good to see other news.
The Russian losses are far higher; those shot by their own people, self-mutilated victims and alcohol victims are not included in the Ukrainian figures
Ukraine must be getting ready to run wild weasel missions with F-16s, otherwise, it wouldn't make sense to risk their limited remaining Soviet airframes on high risk, high reward wild weasel missions.
