Can anyone explain to me where the advantage lies in telling the world that the the next American/British//French arms -shipment contains XYZ ? It simply seems mad to me - let them discover it when the missiles hit 200 km away or their radar installations are knocked out , but no prior knowledge. As far as I can see the only advantage lies in telling the world that another $ 200 00 000 package is on the way to tell the Russkies, the world , that the support continues.
