According to Russia Today, the captured commander of the 36th Brigade of Marines of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Colonel Vladimir Baranyuk, in an interview with journalists, expressed his opinion regarding the FGM-148 Javelin anti-tank missile systems supplied by Washington to Kiev.
According to the Ukrainian serviceman, these complexes are of little use in real combat conditions.
“We have not been able to make a single launch (from Javelin – editor’s note) … an absolutely useless weapon. Something is constantly bothering him,” Baranyuk said.
He also added that there are no instructions for weapons in Ukrainian, everything is in English, which many fighters simply do not know.
“We tried to figure out how to shoot, according to the instructions, on YouTube… Nobody explained anything to us,” Baranyuk added.
