1) Nothing happens without a reason.
2) Ukrainian BUK's can not protect against theoretical Russian invasion because they will be easily eliminated (e.g. by Grad systems, Tochka-U etc). |
Why Russia and not Mozambique? Maybe because Russia is massing it's forces on Ukraine's border and Mozambique isn't.
I see a bunch of reasons why Russia would invade Ukraine and not the least is Russia's leaders lust for power.
And whether those BUKs cannot offer protection against Russian invasion or not, they are better than nothing and Russia have same and similar AA systems, as the BUK is Russian system in the first place. Why have you built those if those are no use?
