SAS troops training use of NLAW

How likely do people find this ? This is meant to be an easy missile to use, and presumably lots of training was given before war started - or was given in Poland etc when war started. Since there would have been good numbers of Ukranians trained, who would then act as trainers themselves back in Ukraine, it would seem to be monumentally stupid of the MOD to have British serving soldiers in Ukraine. If you recall the high-level panic there was when there was just one soldier who deserted and was supposedly wanting to travel to Ukraine to fight, this becomes more unbelievable.

That apart why SAS ( apart from headline value ) ? They will not be specialists with these weapons, will have fired many fewer than some other units and will not know all the technical answers. I understand that this info supposedly comes from Ukranian sources, but it doesn't sound believable to me
