Details: Keir Starmer’s government previously planned to deliver 12 AS90 artillery guns to the Ukrainian army within 100 days of taking office, it has been reported. But now plans to deliver 16 units.
“Artillery plays a vital role in providing cover for Ukrainian troops and destroying key Russian targets,” the message said.
For reference: The AS90 is a flexible, highly accurate, advanced artillery system that provides armored protection to its crew while allowing it to engage targets at long range. The installation weighs 45 tons and is armed with a 155 mm cannon.
We will remind:
- Earlier, several groups of Ukrainian artillerymen were trained on AS90 in Britain.
- Training on the AS90 took place in a specialized facility under the control of the Royal School of Artillery.
