The UK is sending 350 ASRAAM missiles to strengthen Ukraine’s air defenses, funded by frozen Russian assets, as Prime Minister Starmer announced at NATO.
These missiles are actively used in the Raven air defense system, provided to Ukraine by the UK. According to recent information, Ukraine has received at least eight units of the Raven short-range air defense system from the United Kingdom, with five more currently being prepared for delivery.
Designed to counter aerial threats such as Shahed-type drones, the system has conducted over 400 launches with a reported success rate of approximately 70%.
