This war can be called artillery

Military expert Daniil Bezsonov about weapons at the front:

▪️The shelling continues. Gorlovka, Yasinovataya, as well as Kuibyshevsky, Kirovsky, Petrovsky and Kyiv districts of Donetsk are under attack. Two people died in a day.

▪️Zaluzhny recognized our superiority in artillery. Our fire intensity is higher. From the side of the enemy, high-precision MLRS HIMARS are working. They influenced the course of events, and our front stopped. However, now the MLRS of domestic production "Tornado" are entering. Possible fracture.

▪️Our cannon artillery is working actively. Enemy counter-battery radars become less effective. We shoot from a longer distance. We apply a new
modification of the artillery system "Peony" "Malka". There is a process of adaptation. This is an artillery war. 90% of the wounded and dead suffered from shrapnel wounds, and not from small arms. Artillery makes it possible to work at long distances. Close combat is rare these days.

Military expert Aleksandr Artamonov on new deliveries to Ukraine:

▪️The Patriot battery consists of four launchers with two missiles each. A salvo costs between $700,000 and a million. The AFU could hit our Geranium-2(Shahed-136) , but it makes no sense. Our drones fly in huge numbers, not to mention high-precision X-101 and X-38 missiles. Weapons are promised to Ukraine as political corpses. Those who come to replace them must still agree to the deliveries.

▪️Americans produce 13-14 thousand 155 mm shells per month. During a period of escalation, the Armed Forces of Ukraine use 6 thousand shells a day. For every one of their arrivals four strikes from us follow. It takes 2-3 years to put the economy on a war footing. We are unlikely to give the enemy that time.

▪️Ukrainian and American officials are asking the United States to supply MIM-Hawk systems. They were withdrawn from service 12 years ago. Patriot missiles don't see anything. Six years ago the Yemenis hit oil depots in Saudi Arabia. The air defence system failed to shoot down the drones. The radar did not detect them in the airspace.
