The author of the Fabio Lugano reports that the Israeli delivery of these systems of Ukraine is the direct escalation of Kiev military support, which opens issues on the future of relations between Tel Aviv and Moscow.
Israeli recognition
The report also transmits the official confirmation of this move from the Israeli ambassador to Kiev Mihailo Brodski, who emphasized that it was not about one unit, but more – those who were withdrawn from use in April 2024. years. This is the first official Israeli recognition of military assistance of such proportions.
Israel has eight Patriot systems, which are locally known as Yahloom. These advanced defensive systems are used from the 1991 Gulf War. Years, when they served to intercept Iraqi missile threats. The systems have repeatedly upgraded to have the possibility of opposing cruise missiles and drones.
The report explains that the Israeli Defense System includes advanced radars, smart missiles, and is placed on the German production trucks, which allows it to be high-mobility, although the electromagnetic signature requires careful positioning to avoid detection.
The upgraded version of the Gem + Patriot system showed high efficiency against complex air threats, especially Russian rockets calibr and iskander.
Also, she proved the ability to intercept extremely fast projectiles, such as Russian Kinzhal, in May 2023. years.
Transfer in Ukraine
The transfer of these systems was complex, and was performed under the American supervision of airplanes type C-17, which were flying between the air base Ramstein in Germany and the Air Base in Israel, before being transferred to Poland, and then published by OsintDefender on the X.
Reports state that approximately 90 projectiles PAC-2 were delivered with the approval of the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
The report states that the system was upgraded and maintained in the United States before delivery, while Ukrainian teams passed the training for its use in the Fort Sill air base in the United States.
Regional and international balance
He added that this delivery improves the abilities of Kiev to oppose air attacks, despite constant technical challenges, such as radar protection from Russian counter-racked rockets and attacks by assault drones.
The report concludes that this Israeli exchange rate, although far from the public’s eye, carries great strategic implications and confirms the increasingly pronounced ranking of Israel along the west block led by Washington, especially in the context of more intense military cooperation between Moscow and Tehran.
Such dynamics could reshape regional and global balance in the coming period.
