Not as flashy as the big kaboom “hit the archer not the arrow” projects, perhaps – but there is still very much a need for more arrow-hitting capability as well.
The last line of the article was also encouraging, in a quiet way. Ensuring that Ukraine has control of their own weapons supply is increasingly important given all the… everything that’s going on.
Named after a mythical bird in English heraldry. 😁
Useless bit of information for you there.
The interesting thing about the Marlet is that while it’s primarily a short range air defence missile, (with a flip of a metaphorical switch) it’s really a multi-role missile that can be fired at enemy troops and ground vechicles, and works as a light anti-tank missile.
It probably can’t take out a main battle tank – however Russia is using some tanks so old that they don’t count as a MBT, it can dystroy armoured personnel carries, armoured fighting vechicles and some buildings.
