The Ukrainian parliament has approved a law with a list of rewards for Russian military equipment. Russian soldiers defecting to Ukraine with a warship or a jet can now claim up to $1 million. A tank or an artillery piece would be worth a $100,000 reward.

One Russian to another: What’s the news?
—We’re at war with NATO!
How’s it going?
—We’ve lost 15,000 soldiers, 100 aircraft, and 600 tanks.
How about NATO?
—Oh, they haven’t started fighting yet.

Best anti air systems given to Ukraine so far?

So far I think they have not received any s-300s or S-400s, but the UK has supposedly sent Starstreak missiles which I think are more effective than the stingers we have been sending. Is Ukraine set to receive anything better -or have they received anything better (in the context of anti air)?
