The openness of Donbass, where clear fronts are expected to form in a more conventional battle outside the cities, will provide an almost perfect arena for howitzer deployment.
Most importantly, Ukraine has planned to purchase weapons systems, which means that its troops are already familiar with the technique.
Joe Biden, the president of the United States, also announced the delivery of up to 300 Switchblade drones, which are designed to fly over a battlefield and choose the best target to hit in a kamikaze attack.
Military experts say US-made drones are much better than those used by the Russian military, which has seen modernization efforts largely fail due to sanctions imposed on them after the 2014 invasion of Crimea. .
To maximize efficiency, a small number of Ukrainian troops already in the United States have been trained to use armed drones.
The United Kingdom has followed Washington’s example and offered to train Kyiv troops on how to use the Mastiff armored personnel carrier, which is considered key to boosting Ukraine’s military mobility in Donbas.
In addition, Starstreak anti-aircraft missile systems will be sent to the country to help Ukraine in its air battle against Russia.
Many in Britain believed that Ukraine would lose the battle in the sky almost instantly, but after Kyiv’s success, the authorities changed their minds to deciding that it was worth sending more powerful weapons.
Europe, which is investing more than £ 400 million through the EU and much more through its capitals, has decided it is time to send tanks, mostly former Soviet T-72s. He is also considering proposals for MiG-29 fighters.
This is expected to help increase Ukraine’s chances of success in Donbass, but will also enable its military to defend Kyiv more adequately from another possible Russian attack.
