🇷🇴 Romania is thinking about transferring the Patriot complex to Ukraine - DefenseRomania

🔹The President of Romania, K. Iohannis, during his visit to the USA, said that Romania is discussing the possibility of transferring to Ukraine one of the 3 Patriot systems that have not yet been put into operation.

"In recent weeks there has been an intense discussion about who can provide Patriot systems to Ukraine. Romania has such systems and of course we have been asked. We have to discuss this at home to see what we can get in return, because leaving Romania without air defense unacceptable"

🔹We are talking about one of the systems that is not in service with Romania, but is just being put into operation. In total, Romania bought 7 Patriot RAS-3 systems for $4 billion, one of which is already operational, three are being put into operation, and a contract will soon be concluded for another 3. One Romanian Patriot system includes one AN/MPQ-65 radar, one AN/MSQ-132 command post and 4 M903 launchers.
