The US military is strengthening the training of Ukrainian colleagues for the use of weapons from the West, now hundreds of specialists are learning to work with artillery systems, drones and radars. The Hill writes about this, citing its sources..

Efforts to bring our military out of Ukraine for training at several locations in Europe have intensified significantly since the Pentagon said in early April that it had taught about ten such military personnel how to use Switchblade drones..

More than 220 Ukrainians have now been trained using US artillery, specifically the M777 howitzer, a 10,000-pound system that can be towed by vehicles and hit targets up to 18 miles away with 155mm rounds.. Washington promised Kyiv 90 such systems.

Another 20 Ukrainian troops completed a week-long training course on the newly developed Phoenix Ghost unmanned aerial system on Sunday..

" The goal of all this is to get them back as soon as possible so that they can then teach others in their army how to work with equipment,"

According to him, since 2015 Ukrainian troops have taken part in more than a dozen major military exercises together with the United States in Germany..
