UK to send first long-range missiles to Ukraine- Quantity Won't Change War But Slow Advance (Air Defense Needed)

 UK is sending some advanced missiles to Ukraine. While it isn't going to tip the scales to Ukraine it might create more match in artillery. If you aren't sure where you can put your supplies, troops mass or whether or not your artillery will get hit then you will have an exponential effect that is likely to be disruptive. In other words, Russians will need to move things around and double guess themselves. 

The high mobility of these systems is helpful as they can move across regions fairly quickly. The goal should be to force Russian troops to commit in close quarter combat and require them to leave troop reserves for defense thereby splitting power (Why looking for soft spots and hitting them hard is important.). 

While we may not be sending planes we should consider better air defense to knock out low level plane attacks.
