The Ukrainian soldiers tasked with operating American-built Patriot surface-to-air missile batteries to defend their country’s skies against Russian missiles and other aircraft will be trained on the system at Fort Sill in Oklahoma, according to a report in The Washington Post.
Citing a US official, the Post said the training sessions could begin as soon as this month at the Oklahoma installation, which is where US troops specialising in field artillery and missile defence receive their own basic training courses in those specialties.
