Finally: American Most Fearsome GMLRS Missile Arrives in UkraineTo Russia, they’re Ukraine’s most powerful weapons. To the rest of the world, they are heavy artillery missiles with the accuracy of a sniper. These are the American GMLRS missiles and they’ve just arrived in Ukraine. Batch after batch, the United States has loaded Ukraine with them to repel the Russian forces in a conflict that is no longer Ukraine’s to fight alone but a long line of other nations fighting indirectly by loading Ukraine with essential supplies. Supporting Ukraine does mean standing against Russia, though, and now the nations on Ukraine’s side could be in danger of an invasion themselves, particularly Poland and Finland which both share borders with Russia. To keep the Russian forces far away from their borders, these two nations are arming themselves with the same weapon that Ukraine has been gifted by the US – the GMLRS missiles. If anything, this is a testament to just how crucial this weapon is in dealing with threats. Recognizing that with great power and demand comes great responsibility, the US has now awarded a contract worth $476.8 million to Lockheed Martin in a bid to handle supply shortages and feed allies with enough GMLRS missiles and launchers, according to the latest news.
