ATACMS require highly sophisticated intel & accurate targeting. The kinds of things way up in the sky that US has and Ukraine does not possess. And a level of classified training & access that are reserved for US, and only "very special" NATO players. Russians understand this, which is why they say that if these US ATACMS hit Russian soil, it's via the efforts of US personnel, and Russia considers this an act of war. This is exactly what they said, and this is how they view things.

Thanks. I confess to having a very literal mind. My wife would confirm this. :)

When I read "US personnel firing..." my mind sees only an American literally pressing the fire button. Yes, this had led to many moments of confusion in my past.
