Do you have a reference for the Patriot missiles? I guess Russia could see that as another major escalation. Or do you mean Stinger?

Stinger yes. Patriot last I heard the United Stated did not want because they considered it would upset Putin too much.

"Germany to send Ukraine surface-to-air missiles and anti-tank weapons" https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30480526

"Why didn't the U.S. and allies provide Ukraine with a better air defense system?"

We didn't want to provoke Putin," said an official.
