Taurus cruise missiles from Germany to Ukraine?

Fernando Valduga By Fernando Valduga 08/14/2023 - 08:20 in Armaments, Military, War Zones

The German government is talking to the MBDA about the transfer of Taurus cruise missiles to Ukraine.

This was reported by Reuters, which cited a security source.

“Germany is focusing on heavy artillery, armored vehicles and air defense systems. There is no new information about the Taurus cruise missile,” a German government spokesman told Reuters.

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, commenting on Friday on the growing debate about sending Taurus cruise missiles to Ukraine, said there is no news to report.

“There is no new state of affairs to report on this issue,” Scholz told the German newspaper Thüringer Allgemeine in a story published on Friday.

"Our focus continues to be the sending of weapons for air defense, heavy artillery and also tanks. This is the path we will follow, in close consultation with our international partners," he said.

Several politicians inside and outside the ruling coalition government recently discussed the sending of weapons, which can destroy bunkers and protected command posts at a distance of up to 500 kilometers. The German Ministry of Defense, however, also made it clear when asked that there was no change in policy.

F-15K armed with two Taurus missiles.

Low-flying cruise missiles, such as the Taurus, are difficult to detect by air defense radars. The Taurus has a range of more than 500 km and is launched by fighters such as the Tornado, the F-15 or the F-18. It is mainly used to target high-value targets behind enemy lines, such as command bunkers, ammunition and fuel depots, airfields and bridges.

The United Kingdom and France have supplied Ukraine with Storm Shadow cruise missiles (SCALP), which are fired from Soviet-made modified aircraft, such as the Su-24 Fencer.

The logistics package includes a stock of spare and consumable parts as well as equipment for ground support of helicopters. The training package includes comprehensive training of pilots and technical staff. The AW101 helicopters will carry out anti-submarine missions in the area of responsibility of the Polish Navy and ensure the navigability of sea communication routes, protect ports and protect surface units. Equipping the helicopters with medical equipment will also enable CSAR combat search and rescue operations.

US Navy Lockheed P2V 7 Neptune Of Patrol Squadron VP 56 DragonsHawaiian Shirt

The Lockheed P2V Neptune was a civilian airliner converted to a naval patrol aircraft. The Neptune was originally developed as the Lockheed L-188 Electra by Lockheed in the early 1960s, but it found few buyers before the conversion to a naval aircraft. Entering service with the US Navy in 1971, the Neptune served as both a strategic reconnaissance and patrol aircraft. The Neptune remained in service with the US Navy until 1992, when it was replaced by the AgustaWestland AW101 Merlin.

Five NATO aircraft carriers perform exercises in large naval deployment

Fernando Valduga By Fernando Valduga 11/20/2022 - 17:00 in Military

NATO navies perform maneuvers in the Atlantic and Mediterranean Sea throughout November, bringing together five aircraft carriers, numerous warships and thousands of sailors.

The activities of the aircraft carrier will include anti-submarine and air warfare exercises, aircraft transfers from deck to deck and refueling at sea.

In the North Atlantic, the USS Gerald R. Ford, the newest and largest warship in the world, arrived in the United Kingdom after weeks of exercises alongside warships from Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, the Netherlands and Spain. The Royal Navy's HMS Queen Elizabeth left Portsmouth on November 10 for exercises with F-35 fighters in the North Atlantic.

In the Mediterranean, the Charles De Gaulle of the French Navy - escorted by Greek, American and Italian ships - left Toulon on November 15 for deterrent patrols on the eastern flank of NATO and counterterrorism operations in the Middle East. Also in the region are the Italian aircraft carriers Cavour and the USS George H. W. Bush.

In recent weeks, jets from George H. W. Bush carried out deterrent patrols over Lithuania and Poland. The Italian aircraft carrier ITS Cavour still seems to be operating in the Mediterranean. The aircraft carrier, which can carry F-35Bs, AV-8 Harrier jets and AW101 helicopters, left its base port in Taranto in early October to participate in the Mare Aperto 22-2 Exercise, which also included forces from other members of NATO and the European Union (EU).

NATO spokeswoman Oana Lungescu said that the developments "demonstrate our ability to project power throughout the Alliance and quickly strengthen the Allies".

In the context of Russia's war against Ukraine, she said: "These aircraft carriers offer deterrence and help keep our maritime lines of communication open. Our strength sends a clear message that NATO will protect and defend every inch of allied territory." At the NATO Summit in March, the Allies decided to deploy attack groups of aircraft carriers, submarines and a significant number of combat ships on patrol on a persistent basis.
