These radars have a range and radius of detection of enemy objects – approximately 250 kilometers.
The Ukrainian military will have GM 200 anti-aircraft radars at their disposal, which France will purchase for them.
Air Force representative Yuriy Ignat said on the air of the national telethon that these radars have a certain range and radius of detection of enemy objects – approximately 250 kilometers.
According to him, this will help the Ukrainian defenders to detect air enemy targets faster and notify air defense in a timely manner.
“Radio-technical troops are the eyes of the Air Force, so any strengthening of Western radars will help us better see the Air Force and better detect it, not only on our territory, but also on the enemy’s territory,” Ignat explained.
