Ukraine to receive Patriot system after Easter – Air Force spokesman Ihnat

Ukrainian Air Force spokesman Yuriy Ihnat said this on the Great Lviv Speaks program. 

In particular, asked when Patriot systems will appear in Ukraine, Ihnat answered: “I think it will be after Easter.”

However, the spokesperson did not specify the timeframe for the delivery of the Patriot system.

“When we shoot down the first Russian aircraft, you will know for sure,” he said.

• On April 14, it was reported that Ukraine might receive the Italian-French SAMP/T anti-aircraft missile system later than expected. The system is not yet ready for delivery.
