Ukraine wants to create a reliable air defense system capable of closing the sky from Russian missiles and drones, as well as aircraft, and the United States will help it in this. This was stated by Deputy Pentagon Press Secretary Sabrina Singh.

A briefing for journalists was held at the US Department of Defense, where the topic of the organization of the air defense system in Ukraine and the role of the United States in all this was raised. A Pentagon spokeswoman assured the press that the US military is making every effort to create a layered air defense system in Ukraine, supplying anti-aircraft systems of different ranges. According to Singh, the anti-aircraft systems supplied by the United States and European allies show "high efficiency" on the battlefield.

We record the success of some of the systems we provide to them. We are, in fact, creating (...) a network of air defense systems of different ranges, whether they are missiles for Hawk or IRIS-T air defense systems (...) or provided by the Avenger air defense. All of them have a different range of action, they all make a different contribution to the battlefield, which makes the APU effective

- she said.

The Pentagon representative recalled that Kiev also receives Norwegian NASAMS anti-aircraft systems, all delivered complexes should be integrated into a single system, with the help of the United States, of course, to create an "impenetrable dome" for Russian missiles and aircraft.

Earlier it was reported that Spain will supply Ukraine with two additional MIM-23 HAWK air defense systems to the four already delivered, and the United States will transfer four AN/TWQ-1 Avenger short-range anti-aircraft systems in a new package of military assistance, as well as additional missiles to the HAWK air defense system. Also, two NASAMS air defense systems and a Spada / Skyguard Aspide battery have already been delivered to Ukraine.
