The New York Times: Ukraine received a secret batch of ATACMS missiles and used them against the Russian Federation

According to information published in The New York Times with reference to sources, Ukraine secretly received a batch of more than 100 long-range ATACMS missiles and used them in response to the aggression of the Russian Federation. These missiles were used to attack the military airfield in Dzhankoya and Russian military positions in Berdyansk.

Biden secretly approved the transfer of more than 100 of these missiles in mid-February. They were included in the March $300 million aid package that was delivered last week, along with a new batch of cassette modifications of these systems.

The transmission was kept secret so that the Russians would not move their objects to a sufficient distance.

Previously, the US did not want to transfer long-range ATACMS to Ukraine, but decided to do so after refusing to sell them to other countries. This allowed us to keep more for ourselves and give a part to Ukraine. And they also contributed to the Russian strikes on the Ukrainian energy system.

At the same time, the American arsenal of ATACMS is relatively small. According to Lockheed Martin, the system's manufacturer, only about 4,000 ATACMS units have been manufactured since the missile was developed in the 1980s.

Earlier, the US officially confirmed that it is transferring ATACMS in a new military aid package and will continue deliveries.
