One user claimed that the new weaponry supplied to the Ukraine would not necessarily be instantly beneficial:

“9 launchers aren’t the problem. it’s how many rocket pods are supplied with them. Also targeting data.

Answering to the previous statement another Twitter user stated:

“That’s why these are delivered so slowly. Sure a bit too slow but these are easy to use. I think the ammunition will come exactly when needed being stored outside Ukraine (no I don’t have access to military secrets it’s my guess).
