According to him, Ukrainian troops have already lost a total of 13 HIMARS and M-270 MLRS launchers.
“We don’t hear so much news about his work anymore,” the expert was quoted as saying by RIA Novosti.
The loss of this equipment was a real disaster for the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Merkouris stressed, explaining that now the United States and its allies are less willing to supply Kiev with HIMARS and ammunition for them.
It was previously reported that during all the fighting in the Kursk direction, the Russian military destroyed nine M142 HIMARS MLRS installations and four M270 MLRS installations. According to Military Chronicle, the Armed Forces of Ukraine have not suffered such significant losses of firepower since the Battle of Artemovsk.
