@meoff7602

So he's going to target air defense with long range missiles?  Lol, genius move.

@k.k356

They also said this about HIMARS when they first were delivered. Yet, to this day, not a single HIMARS launcher has been destroyed.

@hansfrans761

So if they plan to conduct airstrikes against anti air missiles, may we assume their next move will be attacks on anti tank weaponry by using T80s?

@djx7134

It's not a maternity ward, a preschool, or a playground, so I don't think we have much to worry about.

@jm75937

Wow! This is a shocking change in strategy. Targeting military equipment rather than civilians.

@clineshaunt

I'm pretty sure this was already taken into consideration.  They've also probably already worked out ways to protect them as best as possible.

@valcreatives

Russian Aircraft and missiles is the PRIME TARGET of US Patriot.

@la7dfa

What!  Does this mean Russia will stop targeting civilian infrastructure, and actually (try to) fight the military again?

@1134EMP

How about this? Stop telling the enemy what we’re up to, and just report after it’s over and what was done.

@justice3125

The irony is when Russia attacks Ukraine it's not terrorism but a "humanitarian" exercise but if Ukraine attacks Russia it's terrorism. Really warped reasoning.

This is the moment when the bully warns his victim not to defend himself while he keeps slapping him in the face.

@Noneofyourbizniz1

They said the same thing about the MLRS which has been doing serious damage to the Russians.

@onespeedlite

Kremlin: Patriot missiles arriving in Ukraine will be a prime target for Russian airstrikes!
Ukraine: Russian fighter jets arriving in Ukraine will be a prime target for Patriot land-to-air missles strikes!

@cptbaguette

Threatening to hurl aircraft at an air defense system until one side runs out is pretty in character for Russian military doctrine

@jimd7875

Why do you have to announce that before? Just send them and let 'em rip. Then you have breaking news.

@bigearl3867

When bombs and missiles hit civilians it tends to piss them off. History shows it doesn't break them. Such actions galvanize the people. It does not matter what nation/group is doing the bombing.

@milobradtke2445

therefore, Ukraine needs to destroy Russian air bases without waiting for the Russian Aerospace Forces to strike.

@graemesydney38

There's an old American saying; there's those that do, and there's those that talk about it. Bring it on Ivan.😄 Bring it on.

@Scarabswarm

So Russia is going to purposefully send their aircraft towards the long range anti-air systems?

Well... that's one option.
