⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦🇵🇱🛠 Repair of failing Western Weapons⚡️

A team of US military specialists has been deployed in Poland to remotely help Ukrainians repair failing Western weapons.

The list of weapons covered by the American guarantee includes 14 items, including HIMARS, 155-mm howitzers and Javelins. A separate closed chat room is set up to advise on each type of weapon, and internet connectivity is provided by Starlink satellites.

Certain issues have stumped the US military: it turns out that Western armaments cannot withstand the stresses of constant use. Howitzers, for example, are having their barrel rifling wiped out.

“We were not prepared for such wear and tear on the howitzers. They were never even tested under such conditions. This kind of ammunition consumption was not foreseen by either weapons manufacturers or development program managers,” the U.S. Army lieutenant colonel claims.

As the American officer admits, “Many of the parts that need to be replaced are simply not available.”

The base where the American specialists work is under special protection. Patriot air defence systems are deployed there, because the US military command fears Russian missile strikes against it. The state of the security systems was recently inspected personally by the chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Mark Milley.
