Italy and France have agreed to jointly purchase about 700 Aster-30 anti-aircraft missiles, APA reports citing “İl Messaggero” publication.
The missiles are being used to equip SAMP-T air defense systems, which the countries intend to supply to Ukraine. However, in all likelihood, not all missiles will be destined for Kyiv, the newspaper writes. Some will remain in the arsenals of Italy and France.
