The reason for this is that the invaders understand the capabilities of the Ukrainian air defense to destroy kamikaze drones and cruise missiles, so they are looking for other methods of terrorism.
Russian troops began attacking Ukraine more often using ballistics. The Speaker of the Air Force of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Yuriy Ignat, explained the reasons at the telethon.
He noted that the Russians understand the capabilities of the Ukrainian air defense to destroy Shahed-136 kamikaze drones and cruise missiles. Therefore, the enemy resorts to the use of ballistics, which can only be shot down by special means, of which Ukraine does not have many.
According to Ignat, the enemy more often uses missiles that fly in a ballistic trajectory. These are Iskander-M, Kinzhal and Kh-22 aeroballistic missiles and S-300 anti-aircraft guided missiles.
Earlier, the Air Force explained why air defense shows varying effectiveness.
Let’s remember that in January, the aggressor country Russia fired more than 330 missiles of various types and about 600 attack drones on the territory of Ukraine.
