Ukrainian’s? Yeah right.
These ships have been struck with USA assistance.
Ukraine had a very large part of the ex-Soviet R&D and weapons makers. The Kharkov works was the largest tank factory, several missile and aircraft makers were on Ukraine, a lot of the tech talent too, etc and etc. So why not Ukraine?
The Neptune system has been manufactured in Ukraine for decades and they are fully capable of using it.
But yes, NATO has been providing high elevation surveillance data. Probably since the Russian incursions of Ukraine’s globally recognized borders since 2014.
Essentially they are watching hundreds of miles out from the border for signs of Russian incursion and sharing this data with the Ukrainians.
Russia already has full top down surveillance of Ukraine without limitations so it’s simply to make the fight fair and let the best man win...
