all missiiles rather if they fly a simple trajectory or a trajectory where they manuever throughout their flights all the ranges are already taken accounted for when they push the information to the public. Even the proposed Klevok-D2 that has the same dimensions and warhead that is twice as heavy as Hermes ends up having more than 1.5 times the range with the same or even perhaps better manueverability. I am willing to even bet you have absolutely no idea that the PRSM is a proposed missile with a longer range than the ATACMs with the addition of manuevering capabilities. Its hard to believe but technology has progressed where we have missiles having almost the same dimensions more range and even maneuving capabilites than previous generation missiles, its crazy man.
Thats because you have shown time and time again you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about that I am interested in you telling me what are the benefits air breathing missiles have over BMs?
LMAO instead of the mental gymnastics just say the HTV-2 is a failure and the U.S. can't make something like Avangard. Hell you can even go explain to me why the U.S. wanted scramjet research material from the kholod project if you are saying they have more talent and money
No surprise though, this is the country that labels its non AESA Su-35 as 4+++++ gen fighter lol.
Still better than the U.S. dubbing 5th + as 6th gens
was going to send their Mig-29s eventually. I suspect that they've already sent a couple of them in the form of "spare parts", earlier in the conflict, but they should still have 20+ left. Hopefully, Slovakia 
will follow suit and send their 11 Mig-29s as well, as they discussed. More importantly, however, I hope that the West has found a way to further integrate Western missiles onto the Soviet air frame. We know they've had various upgrades over the years, but their true value isn't in their quantity, it's in their (hopefully) ability to use some of the devastating package of weapons that the West has to offer... JDAMs and AMRAAMs immediately come to mind.
gets to provide additional support at an extremely cost effective price in the sense that they've already paid for the tanks they would be sending to Poland. Those tanks are in storage anyways, and many of them are already being replaced by the newest version. The cheapest way to supply Ukraine with what they need is to use your current inventory to your advantage. Poland has bought 250 Abrams' anyways, so this would act as an extension to the previous deal.
wins huge here because they get nearly two full tank brigades worth of reasonably upgraded armor and the cost to the Poles would be the training for Ukrainian tank crews, in exchange for the tank upgrades from the USA. 160-180 MBTs is actually a meaningful number, especially as they look to go on the offensive at some point. It's also a tank they are already familiar with and comfortable with in many ways, which would mean less headaches when it comes to integration into their inventory.
