Ukraine Receives Supplies From Allies As Russia Amasses Weaponry
Newsy
Russia's advanced hardware is adding to a military imbalance between Russia and Ukraine that was already severely lopsided in Russia's favor.
If Russia were to invade Ukraine, it could bring with it weapons designed for domination of the air and ground.
As of now, the country isn't hiding the military it’s amassing. Tanks are being moved by the trainload to areas near the border with Ukraine. Some of those tanks are believed to be equipped with advanced, defensive counter-measures to avoid being destroyed by enemy missiles. Russia might also deploy its new mobile, robotically-controlled artillery gun designed to defeat enemy anti-tank weapons.
Russia hasn't said the model of these weapons it showed last week in Russia-allied Belarus, which shares a border with Ukraine. Joint Force Operations captured what appear to be images of mobile surface-to-air missiles in Belarus that could be used to shoot down Ukrainian aircraft.
