This weapon can be used on one of the main bridgeheads – in the south of Ukraine.
AFU still has access to more than 95% of all weapons systems supplied by Western allies.
As the publication Welt writes, these weapons were not used in the counter-offensive that began in early summer. According to the publication, Ukraine could use these weapons in 2024 at one of the starting points, which could become a bridgehead in Kherson.
“Having the necessary fighters, combat helicopters and drones, the Ukrainian Armed Forces could provide sufficient support for the advancement of troops, especially since there are almost no Russian fortifications in this region,” the publication says.
“This would be exactly the counteroffensive that Ukrainian Commander-in-Chief Valeriy Zaluzhny probably had in mind from the very beginning,” journalists say.
The situation in the Kherson direction
On October 28, a report from the Institute for the Study of War stated that The Ukrainian Armed Forces were able to advance on the left bank of the Dnieper in the Kherson region.
The Defense Forces then responded that it was too early to talk about physical and geographical advance on the left bank but the counter-battery fight in the south continues quite effectively .
On October 31, the joint press center of the Southern Defense Forces noted that there have been some successes in this direction, but for now they will not be disclosed.

This sounds strange. Can this be confirmed?
Hard to tell, that content is behind a paywall. But I bet that number comes from an anonymous source in the Pentagon, one of those ignorant military bureaucrats who won’t admit that the weapon supply had been way too meager to overwhelm the strong defelce lines the RuSSians built while Nato was dragging its feet. As if a mere 30 Abrams tanks, delivered long after the start of tbe counteroffensive, could do miracles in minefields! I don’t believe that number “95%” for a minute. Look at all those Bradleys, Leopards, Challengers and Marders fighting at the frontline. Doesn’t look at all as if the AFU is holding anything back, but rather like rushing the new stuff into action. There’s not enough of it, and especially not enough ammunition, that’s the real problem that many in the Pentagon don’t want to admit.
Id have to agree with your thoughts. If you’re right it’s a shame the asshole in the pentagon doesn’t have the intestinal fortitude to show his face. But frankly I can not expect much from the woke infested building.
