Ukrainian Air Defense Forces Running Out of Samp-T Missile Stocks — Media

During the war of the Russian Federation against Ukraine, the Italian-French SAMP-T anti-aircraft missile systems (SAM) have “grounded” at least one enemy fighter-bomber, that is, they effectively “close the sky”.

As NBN reports with reference to the material of Corriere della Sera, the Ukrainian Defense Forces urgently need at least 50 Aster-30 missiles, since the two Samp-T launch complexes have almost run out of ammunition.

As it became known, representatives of Kyiv have been asking the governments of Italy and France for critical missiles for several weeks, but European officials are in no hurry to make a decision, since their own weapons stockpiles have also been exhausted.

In order to somewhat speed up the above-described process, the day before, on March 14, the head of the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense, Rustem Umerov, held a personal meeting with his Italian counterpart, Guido Crosetto, in Rome, and also discussed with the top management of the Eurosam corporation (a joint venture of MBDA Italy/MBDA France and Thales) the prompt delivery of these types of missiles.

Earlier, our information portal wrote that ISW reported on which sections of the front Putin’s army advanced in a day.
