The United States will not deploy the THAAD medium-range missile interceptor system near Ukraine to shoot down Russian missiles and drones, as it does for Israel, because the Russian-Ukrainian war and the war in the Middle East are different.
Don’t act like Poland wouldn’t volunteer to man it themselves. Lithuania would demand one and tell us not to worry about researching a ground to ground missile conversion for them.
At any rate, I was just answering the technical feasibility. If you want to get political, then why don’t we have a 100 guys in Kiev with one of these batteries? We’re willing to defend a genocidal regime but not a country literally fighting for it’s existence?
