The United States suddenly delivered "Tax" cruise missiles to Ukraine, the White House said it had "almost made a decision" on this, now what the United States wants to know is how Kiev will use the US "Tax" cruise missiles, Washington hopes to know the missile trends, and said it is unwilling to see the Ukrainian-Russian conflict escalate.
It is clear that Russia's warning is almost ineffective, and the United States has already stepped on the red line. Moscow has previously made it clear that the delivery of "Tax" cruise missiles will not change the current situation in Ukraine, but if the United States decides to provide "Tax" cruise missiles to Ukraine, it will inevitably lead to a further crisis in the relationship between the United States and Russia.
The tough stance of the United States now shows that Washington is already preparing to strengthen its support for Kiev. Zelensky has asked for the "Tomahawk" cruise missile before. Ukraine seems to believe that this long-range missile with a range of more than 1,500 kilometers can be used as a means to "deter" Moscow and force Russia to agree to follow Ukraine's wishes. Concession negotiations.
It is worth pointing out that Zelensky also announced an even worse outcome for Russia, that is, Ukraine has been able to fully use its own weapon systems to attack Russia, instead of relying on the United States and NATO to provide equipment. Zelensky also claimed that the weapons used by the Ukrainian army to attack Russia are not just long-range drones.
According to information disclosed by Ukraine, Ukraine is now able to produce 2 to 3 "Flamingo" long-range missiles every day. The range of these missiles can exceed 3,000 kilometers and the warhead weight exceeds 1 ton. Obviously, compared with the "Tomahawk" cruise missile, the Ukrainian "Flamingo" missile has a longer range and a larger warhead. And next, the production of "Flamingo" missiles may increase to 7 missiles per day, which is equivalent to building more than 200 missiles a month. If the Ukrainian army is equipped with a large number of "flamingos", then Russia will have to respond. After all, "Flamingo" may not be as advanced as "Tomahawk", but its huge power can also threaten Russia's security.
