Ukraine's domestically manufactured Stugna-P has longer range, remote controls, and is only $20,000 per missile.
Wikipedia cites unit costs of Javelin closer to $200,000 than $80,000.
Longer range + tripod + remote control seems safer for operators.
The Javelin might be second to Stugna-P.
- adventured 4y agoUkraine can't effectively produce the Stugna while they're at war with Russia. It's one of the many reasons the Javelin and NLAW are so important. The Neptune might be another great weapon as well, for example, and they'll never be able to produce enough of them while at war.
