The UK is experiencing serious military problems due to assistance to Ukraine. The head of the state Department of Defense said the nation’s equipment “is in dire need of replacement.”
Ben Wallace noted that it was high time to replace British military equipment. He also named the reason – assistance to Ukrainian troops.
“The technique, not the people, is in dire need of replacement,” said Ben Wallace.
He says the British Army has been obsolete for over a decade. And the Ukrainian conflict could allow a faster modernization of London’s equipment.
Tsargrad writes that previously the British authorities promised to teach Ukrainian pilots how to use their fighters. But it takes at least five years, although Zelenskyy offers an accelerated program for his activists.
Earlier it became known that the first contracts for the supply of ammunition for the needs of the Ukrainian Armed Forces will be concluded in the European Union no earlier than the end of April 2023. The project for the joint purchase of ammunition by Europe will be discussed on 7 and 8 March.
