Colonel Douglas McGregor, former adviser to the Pentagon chief, said that the United States had de facto depleted its missile stockpiles against Ukraine. He said this in an interview he gave to his YouTube channel. Judging Freedom.
The officer clarified that we are talking about high-precision missiles such as NASAMS and HIMARS, which take a long time to manufacture. The US has no reserve capacity, McGregor said, and some people don’t understand that.
The former adviser to the head of the Pentagon also noted that Russia can increase production very quickly and Europe is concerned about this.
In an interview, McGregor also said that the accuracy and mass character of the artillery ensured Russia’s success in battles with the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU). He noted that the wars fought in the last 100 years have been won with accurate and destructive firepower.
According to the former adviser to the head of the Pentagon, Russia has shown that to be successful in combat operations, artillery strikes must not only be accurate, but also large.
In an interview with journalist Stephen Gardner, formerly an American officer declarationThanks to the more successful tactics of the Russian army, the defense of Ukraine fell apart. He noted that armored vehicles gradually began to lose their role in hostilities as their nature changed.
