Great Britain showed a video with three Sea King helicopters, which will be transferred to Ukraine
A few days ago, British Defense Minister Ben Wallace announced the transfer of a new aid package to Ukraine, which included three Sea King helicopters. Now the Ministry of Defense has shown a video with these ‘birds’.
They will be used for search and rescue operations. The department noted that the Royal Navy has already conducted training for 10 crews of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, increasing their search and rescue capabilities.

Sea King helicopters were previously used by the Royal Air Force and the Royal Navy. The last board was decommissioned and sent to reserve storage in 2018.
In addition to helicopters, Ukraine will receive 10,000 artillery shells from Great Britain.
