The United States officially announced the delivery of Harpoon coastal missile systems to Ukraine.

US President Joe Biden officially announced the provision of a new military aid package to Ukraine. As it became known, we are talking about providing Ukraine with Harpoon coastal missile systems. Moreover, the use of the latter will be carried out with direct agreement with the United States. This probably implies the deployment of a radar station for these weapons on the territory of neighboring Romania.

“The deliveries include additional artillery pieces and coastal protection equipment, as well as ammunition for artillery and advanced missile systems, which are necessary for the Ukrainians in their defensive operations in Donbass.”US President Joe Biden said.

Due to the lack of details, at the moment it remains unknown what type of anti-ship cruise missiles will be provided to Ukraine, however, experts believe that Washington will try to transfer missiles with a range of up to 260 kilometers to Ukraine.

The specific timing of the supply of such weapons has not yet been disclosed, however, according to experts, it will pose a very serious threat, especially after the loss of the Moskva missile cruiser.
