For the first time, the United States deployed 6 F-22 to Poland. Russian experts: may bring many problems to the Russian army

[Global Times special reporter Liu Yupeng] In the context of NATO's continuous eastward expansion, the United States first deployed 6 F-22 stealth fighters from Alaska to Poland for the purpose of curbing Russia. Earlier, the United States has strengthened the deployment of military power and weapons and equipment in Poland. At the same time, Poland also purchased a large number of US -made weapons and equipped with Russia.

Russia's "Truth" reported on July 28 that the F-22 multifunctional stealth fighter is the same as F-35. It belongs to the fifth-generation fighter, but unlike the F-35, the F-22 is only served in the United States, and has never directed to the United States. Other countries have been sold. On the evening of the 26th, the 90th Expeditionary Fighter Squadron fighter landed at the Royal Air Force Base in Leickeis, UK, and then went to the 32nd Tactical Air Force Base in Lask, Poland. These aircraft will provide support for NATO's mission to curb Russia. According to reports, in addition to these six fighters, the fifth -generation fighter jets of the same type will be added in the near future. This fighter can perform air-to-air and air-to-ground tasks. The most dangerous thing is that the AIM-120D missile is equipped with the NASAMS air defense missiles used in Ukraine. As a result, US planes may attack Russia in the air and claim that this is implemented by the Ukraine with completely the same missiles. Russian experts said that after the F-22 fighter arrived in Poland, Russia should consider the possibility of provocation in the United States and do not rule out the possibility of using them to deal with Russian fighters. Therefore, the F-22 is more noticeable than the F-35 deployed to Europe before. Russian military experts say Russia should pay close attention to the situation because transferring F-22 to Poland may bring many problems to the Russian army participating in special military operations in Ukraine.

Russian Satellite News Agency reported on July 15 that Polish Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Defense Marius Blashk said that the country will purchase 5 C-130H "strong gods" military transport aircraft from the United States. The aircraft obtained by Warsaw will be sealed from the US military. The total contract is 14.3 million US dollars, including the cost of unblocking, maintenance and transfer to Poland, and further maintenance will be carried out in Poland. Recently, Poland has been actively purchasing weapons and military equipment from the United States, including the procurement of F-35 fighters, "Abrams" tanks and "Patriot" air defense systems. Poland purchased 116 second -hand "Abrams" tanks in the United States. The first batch of tanks will be available in early 2023. After the Polish army provided hundreds of T-72 tanks to Ukraine, the number of Posmal armored tanks was insufficient, and the second-hand "Abrams" tank would fill the vacancy.

Today Russia's TV station previously reported that the Pentagon spokesman Cerby said that the United States is deploying the "Patriot" air defense missile system in Poland. In February this year, the United States deployed 12,000 soldiers to Poland and plans to send more than 500 soldiers there, which is the time when the number of U.S. troops in Poland has been the largest. President Biden announced that he intends to set up a permanent military headquarters in Poland, the Fifth Army headquarters of the US military.

Russia's "Viewpoint" reported on the 28th that the Polish Ministry of Defense announced on the 27th that Poland ordered 1,000 K2 tanks, more than 600 K9 grenades guns and 3 squadron FA-50 fighters from South Korea. Most of the K2 tanks ordered are also planned to be produced in Poland. South Korea's total weapon supply transactions to Poland will reach $ 14.5 billion. Russian military expert Warum Koshin said that because of providing a large number of weapons to Ukraine, the Polish army may expect the use of Korean weapons to fill the vacancy in the weapon library. But the question is where Polish found so much money? Maybe they expect the United States to support the budget of Kyiv.
