“Ukraine is very close to creating its own ballistics – Defense Minister”
Kind of doubt they have the technology to ‘create’ laser gyros, sensing, guidance, and other systems needed for effective missiles against an integrated defensive network - so more like “obtaining” missiles...from Germany.
So the REAL QUESTION for people living in Berlin will be whether Russia chooses to play along with this little game of Ukraine ‘creating’ its own missiles, or does Russia respond differently if a high-value target in Moscow gets hit.
.
Oh I forgot, it’s the German Taurus missile. Germany thinks they are off scott free if they send it to Ukraine with “some assembly required” there. I think Russia already said that will not protect Germany because of the technical help needed to target and program it. Pretty sure Russia knows where these missiles are in Germany, too.
Oh, goodie.
Soon they won’t have to waste all of ours.
(In the unlikely event that this article is even partially true.)

The German missiles that are TOTALLY NOT German missiles...
“The German missiles that are TOTALLY NOT German missiles...”
Good point...they’re AMERICAN, at least the critical parts are.
I wouldn’t be too sure of that.
Interesting.
Another reason could be that if it were an American long range missile it really would be “Trump war”.
“””””I think Russia already said that will not protect Germany because of the technical help needed to target and program it. Pretty sure Russia knows where these missiles are in Germany, too.”””””
Germany is also where President Trump has our American troops training Ukrainian troops.
Hope we got sense enough to keep them clear of likely targets.
The Americans the president has there who are training the Ukraine army will be mixed with them of course, other American troops and aircraft are handling the materials and missiles we ship to Ukraine.
Missiles can be guided by GPS (or by celestial navigation) most of the way.
Terrain maps can be used for the last twenty miles of flight.
I have a feeling if Poland and Germany get into this 3 day war they will not send 200 drones a day into Russia, they will sent tens of thousand into all the military sites including the Kremlin, in 100 percent of the country.
“creating its own ballistic missiles”
“obtaining its own ballistic missiles”
Which is it?
What was the Ukrainian verb in Cyrillic used by the Minister?
I’ve heard Putin talk about this several times. If nobody listens to what he says, too bad. That’s the problem. We never listened to Russia when they warned us about the Boston Bombers either.
“On August 27, 2024, Volodymyr Zelensky officially confirmed the successful testing of the first domestic ballistic missile.”
