Multiple **!Sleepless nights for the Crimeans with news that the Ukrainian army F-16 had secretly entered the war.
In the early morning of December 28, RIA Novosti Sevastopol pseudo-governor Razvozhaev reported on Telegram that the Crimean bridge was forced to be temporarily closed in Sevastopol.
According to preliminary information from the occupation authorities, one drone was destroyed, and the infrastructure was allegedly not damaged. In addition, two ** incidents occurred in the Kra Perekopsk region.
There is information that the F-16 fighters of the Ukrainian army have secretly participated in the battle, penetrating the defense at low altitude and carrying missiles to attack the Russian Black Sea Fleet, but it has not been officially confirmed.
Dozens of F-16s with Storm Shadow, Ukraine has to have this capability, the Russian Black Sea Fleet has to be finished] Konstantin Sivkov, a doctor of military science in Russia, warned that Ukraine may let the F-16 also gain the ability to launch the Storm Shadow like the Su-24. If that, Russia will need to feel the headache. Because Ukraine did not get one or two F-16s, the Netherlands will deliver 18 F-16s to Ukraine at a time, and the total number will reach 42, and if you add the F-16s provided by other NATO members, Ukraine will get more F-16s in the future. It is estimated that by 2025, Ukraine will be optimistic that it will be able to get 60 F-16s.
The sinking of the "Novocherkassk" landing ship has a displacement of 4,080 tons, and in the current situation where the Russian Navy is unable to replenish new ships, this kind of large landing ship is definitely the main class. And the ship is also very unlucky, it was damaged by the Ukrainian "Dot" ballistic missile in the port of Berdyansk in March last year, and it was able to escape without any major problems at that time. The landing ship "Saratov", a large NATO Alligator-class landing ship with it, was sunk in the harbor. Later, the "Novocherkassk" was repaired and completed, and then the Black Sea Fleet began to officially warm up, this time it was nothing more than pulling some ammunition far from the front line, and I did not expect it to be sunk in the port in the rear.
The reason why Ukraine can succeed must be attributed to the Su-24 "Fencer" fighter-bomber, which has been modified to support the British "Storm Shadow" cruise missile, which has been verified on the battlefield many times. As the strongest NATO missile delivered to Ukraine to date, it is said to have a range of more than 500 kilometers and can hit major cities in Russia, including logistics centers, command centers, fuel storage depots, etc. After the Ukrainian army is equipped, it has been used many times to attack Luhansk, Mariupol, and Berdyansk, and at the same time, it is also equipped with the use of American-aided ADM-160B air-launched decoys to jam and locate Russian air defense systems.
This time Ukraine chose to move in the early hours of the morning, and Su-24M fighter-bombers took off from Staraya Konstantinov and flew eastward, and then appeared in the Nikolaev region. The plane hovered in the air for about half an hour, not knowing if it was waiting for target confirmation information, although it was detected by Russian radar after launching a cruise missile, and was finally intercepted and shot down by Russian air defense systems. But the point is that the cruise missile has been launched, and the penetration interception successfully hit the large Russian landing ship, with a burst of ** 4,000-ton ships have become scrap metal.
Biden's original proposal of 61 billion was not approved] According to Reuters on December 27, U.S. Secretary of State Blinken said on the 27th that the United States will provide Ukraine with a value of 2$500 million in ** equipment, which is the last batch of military aid this year, is aimed at helping Kyiv cope with the conflict with Russia.
Biden has asked Congress to provide another $61 billion in aid to Ukraine, but Republicans have refused to approve this aid without reaching an agreement with Democrats on strengthening security at the U.S.-Mexico border, the report said.
The White House has warned that without additional appropriations, U.S. aid to Ukraine will run out by the end of the year.
Blinken said the latest aid package includes ammunition for air defense systems, ammunition for the Hippocampus multiple launch rocket system, anti-armor ammunition and more than 15 million rounds of ammunition, the report added.
The report pointed out that since the outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, the U.S. Congress has approved more than $110 billion in funding for Ukraine, but since the Republican Party took over the House of Representatives from the Democratic Party in January 2023, the U.S. Congress has not approved any funds.
