Ukrainian air defense will be strengthened by US Avenger systems - Air Force Command

Yuriy Ihnat, spokesman of the Air Force Command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, informed about this at a briefing.

"The Avenger systems, delivered by our American partners, have their own radar, can effectively work with 8 Stinger missiles at their base, and are extremely mobile. They will also work together with our systems and NASAMS, and IRIS-T in a single information field, which will significantly strengthen our combat capabilities," Ihnat said.

The spokesman of the Air Force Command explained that now the IRIS-T system in Ukraine has destroyed 100% of targets.

In addition, NASAMS anti-aircraft missile systems protect the Ukrainian sky.

"This is very good and good news for us. It is not just one IRIS-T that defends the south of the country, but NASAMS also joins the defense of the Ukrainian sky," Ihnat added.
