The President of Ukraine, Petro Poroshenko, handed certificates anti-tank missile complexes «Stugna-P» and missile complexes «Corsar» to the military, the press service of the Head of State reported.

«Friends, we really lacked them on the frontline in 2014. What a high price was paid by Ukraine in 2014-2015 because of their absence,» – Poroshenko said.

According to the President, the new weaponry will be handed over to 75 representatives of the Land Forces, Navy, Airborne Assault Forces and Special Operations Forces.

«These Ukrainian anti-tank complexes have already proven themselves in battles. They reduce the risk of enemy damage to the operator – due to the possibility of placing the launcher at a very safe distance from the operator. Due to the possibility of acquiring the target from the closed positions and shelters. An important advantage is the cost of domestic anti-tank complexes, which is several times cheaper than that of foreign samples. For the same money of Ukrainian taxpayers, we are now buying 5-6 times more weapons from the Ukrainian defense industry,» – said Poroshenko.

As The Journalist reported, Poroshenko has apologized to Ukrainian people for his promise to end war within hours.
