- Ukraine is aiming to deploy more advanced weapons in its push-back against Russian forces. President Volodymyr Zelenskiy says Ukraine has taken deilvery of a sophisticated air defence system, called NASAMS from the US. Russia currently controls around 15 percent of Ukraine - and, as we heard, Moscow is preparing to formally annex these areas following the so-called referendums. How will the NAMSAMS weapons systems change the way Ukraine fights this war?

#NASAMS #Ukraine #Russia
It's crazy how all this is happening in 2022... Kinda makes you realize that the world will always be this way no matter how advanced and connected we all are.
It comes down to a political leadership for being Greedy, Tyrant, Incompetent and so on. No matter how connected is the 21st century the fact remains a country is still run by humans.
Maybe that is one possible aspect of a future. Then again maybe we dig too deep and awake the balrog ... i mean the GAI will eradicate us or we do it ourselves, which in a sense when creating a GAI which we loose controll of would be the same. Maybe due to cripr9 and the available proten folding contributed by deepmind we could instead eradicate all deseases or we create a super virus which kills all of us ... . We clearly have options here ^^.
@@James-pc1ku Couldn't agree more, I rarely watch or comment on this stuff.
@Don juan You'll see, something so beautiful you can't even imagine is coming. By the way, nothing bad will happen at all, let's just leave it at that.
As long as there are dictators we could end up in these horrible situations.
The advantage of the NASAMS AFAIK is that all the batteries and radars are integrated with each other over distance - so that the system figures out, as a whole, which launcher is in the best position to engage a target. Also with multiple simultaneous targets it is able to distribute the load on the various targets so that all targets are engaged optimally.
But... the S-300 and S-400 are still better.

For those unfamiliar with American weapons systems, most are 100% domestically produced and designed but we do not hesitate for a second to collaborate with allies if the end result is a great weapon system that provides a decisive advantage. Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Poland all have great weapons programs. We do not need bragging rights or need to puff our chests and pretend we are the best at everything all the time. A little humility goes a long way. Bottom line is you must provide your soldiers with the supplies, weapons, training, equipment, and leadership needed to destroy whoever needs to be destroyed. It does not make much difference who made what as long as you win.
Multiple hubs of innovation among allies is ideal, as long as some don't become a source of leaks to adversaries.

@@miriamweller812 to the last russian also
Wondering if it`s Nasams-2 system Ukraine has received. In that case, it should not be possible for Russian missiles, fighter jets, etc. to pass Ukrainian high-value targets. Not possible for Russian to Jam this system, but the entire Ukraine needs more than 20, especially if attacs on Ukraine comes from Belarus as well.
When the next big push comes, both side will deploy aircraft, but only one side will win. This gives the Ukrainians an added advantage.
Enough burned down cities with civilians. Enough bombed out schools and hospitals. Now is the time to provide this defense systems
@@davidjones6389 these missile systems are fixed ones and likely only to protect cities it’s not a system that will cover the front line, so it’s useful to protect places like Odessa, smaller cities close to the front it’s not suitable as you risk it being killed by artillery or captured which would be even worse. Like all missile systems aircraft can fly around them as they should be easily aware of there locations as soon as the radar is turned on and the Russians also have capable anti radiation missiles not sure the capabilities of this system to defend against those.
@@Rob-vv5yn thx
@@Rob-vv5yn There are 16 such systems, either underway or in Ukraine as we speak. I still do not think that is sufficiently. Nasams protects big cities, bridges and should also be able to destroy incomming (God forbid) nukes!
as for why this is good. we have a loooootttt of amrams and sidewinders so if there is minimal change in the missile we can scale this weapon rather easily and there should be active production lines in the states. thus not the greatest but we are giving them 16 of the systems and should be able to give them lots of munitions even if they arent the greatest.
These "experts" need to read the information about these systems, before going on camera. These systems can shoot down aircraft and cruise missiles, so it will protect Ukrainian cities from mostly cruise missiles. The USA sent 2 batteries and will send another 6 in the future for a total of 8 batteries. The other 6 still need to be manufactured.
These systems use American radar and air to air missiles. The Norwegians made the fire control system, so these air to air missiles can be used for this ground to air system.
Raytheon makes these in the USA with the Norwegian fire control components. Obviously, the USA is not going to buy the whole systems from Norway, especially when most of the system are US Radar and missiles. The Norwegian company also makes these in Norway with American components: radar and missiles. I read, the Norwegians also integrated some European made missiles into this system for European countries.
In theory, the system can use almost any air-to-air and ground-to air missile. There's even a launcher for 'cheap' AIM9 SIDEWINDER missiles. Just the thing to shoot down drones with. And since it's a decentralized system, by the time the Orks detects the radar lock, they may have flown over the launchers, and should be preparing for a HE enema...
I don't know where the finished systems are coming from, but the Ukrainian soldiers has been here in Norway to get the necessary training. And they learn fast!
The control & radar system can integrate & command Germany's IRIS-T as well, as soon as they build it and ship to Ukraine.
So which parts are made in Britain again?
Yes general armchair 🫡
@Wonderin'Aloud the name of the system is Norwegian Advanced Surface-to-Air Missile System
Sooo we are the brains u just got the majority of the components just sayin...
I just watched a pentagon briefing from today that says delivery is roughly 2 months away…

NASAMs is a basically a Norwegian fire control system and launchers plus US components such as a Raytheon Sentinel Radar, not a Norwegian system as claimed in the video and US missiles. NASAMS 3 the latest version adds support for AIM-9x, Extended Range AMRAAM, and the German IRIS-T and it will also add a new GhostEye medium range radar based on a system developed for the US Patriot air defense system. GhostEye would open up interoperability with the Patriot possibly leading to Patriots for protection of higher value targets such as Odessa and Kyiv. So it’s big news.
The system is actually based on work done on the old NOAH system. And it already can interconnect with Patriot.
They also use optics from Rheinmetal.
Incidentally, they used a pair of NASAMS to protect Washington DC during the 2005 Presidential inauguration. Not certain why they didn't use a Patriot system?
(The airspace over The Whitehouse is still protected by NASAMS)
NASAMS 1 could also control RBS 70 manpads and L70 40mm cannons. Don't know if 2 and 3 can still do that.
Do Ukrainians know how to repair them if needed?
@@harleyquinn8202 They of course have been undergoing training on how to operate and maintain the systems. The reason it took so long to get HIMARS was that they needed to have a sufficient number of troops trained before the US would release the weapons. It will take a while to become proficient but whatever training they receive will be superior to the dismal level of training and support the Russians provide to their troops.

This is what Ukraine has been waiting for. It will make a huge difference and will save so many lives especially civilians.
I'd disagree that it's "what Ukraine has been waiting for." What they're waiting for are modern Western fighters and MBTs.
@@stephengilmore2741 Western fighters have always been a pipe dream. Even to date, the US has yet to mention fighters. If they can get tanks like the M1A2 is already a miracle. The Americans are kidding themselves, they are still trapped in a conversation amongst themselves on which weapon might upset Putin. Putin doesn't care, if he wants an excuse he will make up anything. Biden needs to do more. Is great that they can secure more monies, but the key thing is how do you plan to use that money that will be the difference maker.
Excellent , thanks to USA for supporting Ukrainian people

Thank you Norway. One of the most beautiful countries on earth, and the home for many natural wonders more than we can count.

This decade has been crazy as we are still only in the 3rd year of it
Several types of defense systems being sent to Ukraine from the US are free. This is because the manufacturers are testing their products.
Nothing sent to Ukraine has been free. When the F-15s and 16s saw their baptism of fire with the IDF (Israeli Defense Forces) during the israeli-arab wars, they were being tested in real world fights for the first time. Yet they had been paid for fully. It's the same with everything the US has sent to Ukraine except in this case, the bill is on the US government.
If you learn just 1 thing in life, you would know nothing is "free".
These things have been tested for years, what they are doing now would more resemble advertising.
@@xlZENlx It's correct. Your referring to the bulk of the weapons funded by the dollars given by the US gov. No, there are so many companies all over the world doing freebies and get return data on results

To be fair, Germany does not have much stocks to begin with, but they could provide financing for some of the systems.
Why Germany need to explain???Germany is independent country not dicated by Ukraine which is fully dependent on west for survival.
Despite Ukraine victory in social media ,it's highly unlikely they will claim victory in battlefield.
He makes them out to be equal to S-300 Soviet era AA missiles. They are not, and not only able to resist jamming they all work as a single unit, the radar from one is used by all of them so 100 kilometers is not the actual radar capabilities of the system, just of 1 part of the system. A line of 10 of them in a row gives the ones on the ends a 1000 kilometer range along the row. If two are side by side 50 kilometers from each other and something is flying between them the system will pick which one should fire before the operators can even think about it. They are not what Russia and Ukraine have been used to making them simply resupply.
This setup of having one central unit coordinating several missiles launch systems has economic advantages (reduction of cost) but also disadvanatges. Take out one central unit and you freeze the whole sytsem. Pro's and Con's.
And any Ukrainian with 80% IQ can operate them with zero training. That is how good those systems are.
@@12345fowler propably some redundancy buildt in for that event, if they can even get close enough to find and Engage it 😂
Anything that is electronic can be jammed. I am not buying that.
@@Aqua.man045 Resist Jamming is not the same as immune to it. And they are defensive system rather than front line which narrows the frequencies that can be jammed due to the distance from the front lines. Signal strength degrades over distance with varying degrees of degradation depending on the frequency. They don't use one frequency range like old tech did and consumer devices do, they use multiple. When one is jammed they will switch to another until they find one that is not being jammed or hit the lack of immunity and then work as solo units. Resistant is not immune.
Apparently weapons first put in service almost a quarter century ago are "the most modern"...
These systems will likely never be used anywhere CLOSE to the frontlines. The purpose of these systems is to stop the indiscriminate cruise missile attacks on civilians in cities like Kyiv and Odesa (and in that respect, Ukraine needed them about six months ago). I'm sure everyone has seen the latest terrorist attacks on Odesa using Iranian suicide drones. Those are literally the EXACT kind of attacks that NASAMS is being sent to Ukraine to stop.
These are very short-range systems (relatively speaking and compared to something like a Patriot battery) and will almost certainly never have the opportunity to shoot down a Russian fighter jet or helicopter. Although considering how incompetent the Russians are, maybe one of their drunken pilots will get lost and accidentally end up flying towards Kyiv and will somehow manage to get close enough to be shot down with NASAMS...but I doubt it.
These will be used by Ukraine exactly how we use them here in the USA. NASAMS batteries are set up around the White House and other sensitive areas in DC to protect the White House and Capitol building from airborne attacks. Whether that be an airplane or drones. That is what Ukraine will do with them. They will be set up around Kyiv and Odesa...perhaps eventually around a city like Kharkiv...and will be used to shoot down incoming cruise missiles and Russian/Iranian drones in order to protect those cities from future attacks.
the S-300 systems that Ukraine already has are far superior.
@@xbandosx1 lol , do know how many s300 and s400 RU has lost?
Splendidly clear. Thanks.
@@xbandosx1 You don't seem to understand the logistics of this war. The S300 may have a longer RANGE than NASAMS does, but IDK what else would make it "far superior". And having a debate about which system is "superior" is literally meaningless. Why? Because Ukraine DOES NOT HAVE THE AMMO to keep S300 batteries operational for the rest of this conflict.
That is EXACTLY why NASAMS is being sent. If Ukraine is forced to keep shooting down tiny little drones with huge S300 AA missiles, they are going to run out very quickly. They are likely on the brink of running out as we speak. That is the main reasons NASAMS is being sent to Ukraine. It has nothing to do with "capability" compared to the S300. They are being sent because NATO can continue to supply Ukraine with the AMRAAMs that are fired by NASAMS pretty much forever. There are no huge stockpiles of Soviet-era S300 missiles available for Ukraine to replenish their stocks, and once they run out, Russia can hit these cities with cruise missiles and drones non-stop without Ukraine being able to stop them.
@@johnnytyler5685 i agree with you to why US had to send NASAMS, but a lot of people then say that they are an upgrade to what Ukraine had before which is not the case.

My opinion is Ukraine needs to move to air superiority next. With winter coming, the fight is going to be in the air. They have not used many of their jets or pilots.
The USA can probably help them quite a lot by taking out all the Ruzzian anti-aircraft systems and air strips, etc.
That's because nearly all of their jets have been destroyed, and the vast majority of Ukraine's pilots either killed; captured, or have deserted!
@@hicm1of124 do you earn 2 or 3 rubles for each of your posts?
@@hicm1of124 the majority?:) Hmm, very funny, because I see them flying in the sky every day and many times during the day here.
I'm afraid they simply do not have enough jets, nor are their jets advanced enough to achieve air superiority. Furthermore there would need to be a huge SEAD campaign along the frontline - something which they cannot do without new aircraft. MiG-29s with AGM-88s aren't enough, especially given their limited implementation.
What Ukraine needs are F-16s. That is their only chance for air dominance.
If you do that russia will respond and take out US ones too.
They have to deploy US weapons as Germany only sends a few.

From where? Do you think its still 1942? Germany has no tanks and if they are needed at home and not in ukraine
@@LordDucarius We all know that Germanys' tanks were amongst the best, but they have been run down.
But they have had 6 months to get them up and running. And why do they need them at home, do you think Denmark or Switzerland will invade Germany?
They sent the last 6 Gepards there were in stocks last week bringing the number to 30. That's all there were. There is also gonna be 50 Dingo MRAP and a few more MARS2 MLRS and PZH2000 sent to Ukraine along with the IRIS-T batteries, but aside of those there is only basically a couple of dozen Leopard1 and Marder standing around somewhere. So unless the government decides to hand over tanks and IFVs Germany is basically done with equipment. The Leopard1 and Marder is essentially all there is still left.
Is this system meant to counter the kamikaze drones from Iran? Kinda like using a sledgehammer to swat a fly...? More C-RAMS for the drones are probably best or some kind of jamming equipment to disable drone's navigation.

@@-NEH- What would Russia possibly gain by using nuclear weapon? Let's say they use a limited strike in Ukraine with tactical nuke. What do they gain? Nothing. What will they lose? All hope of any support of non-aligned countries, From China to India to some African and latin American states. The west would retaliate in some way, if not with nukes, then with air raids to Crimea, making it ready for Ukraine to just pick it up. If they use even small nuke in NATO area, there will be many retaliatory targets in Russia, and the entire NATO will take the skies over Moscow in no time, ready to strike the capital at any moment in case there's more of nuclear strike. And the NATO would use conventional army to take over every nuclear bases and annex the whole Russia.
Speng BIG on weapons for Ukraine. Russia will pay war compensation. It will put Russia is artifical respiration for centuries.
🇺🇦💪✌️
Phil is my favourite news presenter.
They need a 50 of these. Not 2. Ukraine area is 680,000 square kilometres. A dozen would be a bare minimum. The plan is to send 6
Check the price out and the US doesn’t have many to give away, however the Chinese must be watching closely, when the US is weakened and low on ammo they will have a mission in Taiwan that will be starting to temp them. That’s my worry.
Military industrial complex must love this!
Good for them.
trump's stock in Raytheon is doing great... closed at 81.00 today
Not only them but all the people who believe in freedom too
Buy stock and profit from Putin’s aggression, if you are so concerned.
What a childish comment. Without weapons makers we'd be defenceless.
Slava Ukraine ki ll all Russian soldiers we ❤you stay safe
If you listen carefully, the guest said the exact same answer for all the questions, albeit paraphrased
I hope helicopters have laser anti-missile. That could destroy everything including optical. Replace chaff, and flares.
Sometimes i get the feeling that Americans giving their weapons for testing and demonstration purposes on the effectiveness of their weapon systems.
It’s definitely a side benefit. Certainly not the primary reason but we’ll take it.
What if they did? Ukraine's reaping the benefits no matter what the motivation is.
Good publicity. Lots of countries have Russian/Soviet weapons. If they can see how good the US tech is while simultaneously giving the Russian gear away to Ukraine, they can profit from good publicity and newer weaponry. I bet India is paying close attention. Their military has a lot of older Soviet equipment. They might be drawn to US tech more. Especially since China is pro Russia.
You really think America will give billions and billions of dollars to Ukraine for a war that’s not their. America is currently fighting Russia without fighting them. America is only benefiting itself.
Let's just say everyone is watching very closely. Washington is the biggest arms dealer in the world and it's not even close. Another $15 billion worth of arms sales approved just the other month.
I do hope the Western Alliance are also working on helping the Ukrainians with developing their own military equipment industry so they can produce more of the required material for their own forces. "Stugna-P anti tank", Neptune missiles,etc are made in Ukraine so expanding on their current capabilities would be good to help build up their forces and prevent future conflicts when peace is restored.
Right now Ukraine has the advantage of not having expensive factories they depend upon being hit by missile strikes, as the weapons Ukraine is using come from foreign factories. For the time being I think that makes perfect sense.
Wrong. They have not received the NASAMS. Perhaps next week...
AMRAAM missiles are pretty antiquated as a platform, but a lot more advanced than anything in Russia
It's like a total different reality on UA-cam information with the Ukraine conflict vs TikTok information on the same thing. Crazy . The media have not reported well . I'm still waiting for a update on Odessa. Russia launched the Iranian drones and lit the place up . Two days ago.
UA-cam only show Russia losts boosting the morale for Ukraine
TikTok is less censored it shows BOTH sides
@@johnpablo2772 TikTok is chinese spyware
Yes - the Iranian drones are very dangerous
Imagine getting your news from TikTok.
@@falloutboyisitachi 😂. You realize a lot of the footage of the Ukraine conflict are on TikTok days before western media shows a edited version.
VIVA President Zelenskyy he is a HERO!!
Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦🇪🇺🇺🇦🇪🇺🇺🇦..
Glory to the BRAVE HEROES 🇺🇦🇪🇺🇺🇦🇪🇺🇺🇦.
Ukraine will win this war!!
Can these NASAMs counter Iranian drones?!!!
They can but they also have cheaper weapons to take that on then this weapon system.
i don't think nasams has been delivered yet
iron dome from israel
People here post all type of comments of joy without realizing that the rate of escalation of this conflict is incredibly worrisome and with possible catastrophic global consequences.
More Russia! Any kind of way Putin look at it, he will fail.
I think most people are aware of the dangers, we're just sick of hearing about it.
You correct this lunatic is risking the well being of 3 billion or more people cuase there will come a point where we will get involved.
The reality
of industrial ware fare is beg to set in for all around the world and now...including for Putin
And that is we can comfortably
fight a proxy....
industrial war for 200 300 400 months... if necessary
and plenty ... more after that....
With 1 percent of our economy infinite borrowing against our economy...and boundless endless....raw..materials for war....
So the boy better sit down and a political way out ...
That's up to the clown in Moscow. I'm not sure if he is ready to see his kid(s) die.
What's the range... because you're not going to be able to move it!
40 miles or so, but the systems are mobile and can network.
Is this not the game changer we here about but never materializes?.....or will that status be reserved for when we have nothing left to send but catapults?
