MIM-104 Patriot

The prospect of obtaining a battery of surface-to-air Patriot missiles from the United States allows Greece to reconsider lifting its objections to providing Ukraine with the idling Soviet-made S-300 surface-to-air missiles now based on the island of Crete.

Washington has reopened the window for Ankara's return to the F-35 co-production program, on the well-known condition that it removes its Russian S-400 missile defense system from Turkey. Similar discussions had taken place in the past, even with proposed alternatives for relocating the S-400s even to neighboring Azerbaijan, but to no avail. 

Kiev's mobile air defences have enough ammunition to withstand a few more powerful attacks, but then will need more Western aid, a senior military commander said Wednesday.

It is, as reported by Slobodna Dalmacija, the precise operation led by the missiles of the powerful U.S. Patriot anti-aircraft system.
In the video, which was published on July 3, it can be seen that two Russian fighters and three Russian helicopters are engraved on the side of the Patriot battery, and the date of demolition - May 13 - is written below them.

The US State Department has approved a possible $15 billion sale of military equipment to Poland.

The package, announced by the Defense Cooperation Agency, includes 48 Patriot launchers and 644 Patriot Advanced Capability (PAC-3) interceptor missiles, sensors, support equipment, spare parts and technical support.

North Korea has informed Japan that it will launch a satellite within two weeks, but Tokyo believes it could be a ballistic missile and is therefore taking precautions, AFP reported.

Ukraine's air force claimed Saturday to have downed a Russian hypersonic missile over Kiev using newly acquired American Patriot defense systems, the first known time the country has been able to intercept one of Moscow's most modern missiles.

American-made Patriot missiles have arrived in Ukraine, the country's defense minister said Wednesday, providing Kiev with a long-sought new shield against the Russian airstrikes that have devastated cities and civilian infrastructure.
