A representative of the Armed Forces of Ukraine claims that Russia is accumulating Kh-101 missiles for winter attacks on the energy infrastructure of Ukraine

Russia is allegedly pausing its use of Kh-101 air-launched missiles in order to stockpile large numbers of them for subsequent strikes on Ukraine's critical infrastructure. This statement was made by the official representative of the defense forces of southern Ukraine Natalya Gumenyuk.

According to a representative of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, one can now observe a “preparatory period” that Russia is using to accumulate Kh-101 type missiles and their subsequent use against Ukrainian energy infrastructure facilities. The head of the Kyiv regime, Vladimir Zelensky, previously said that the Russian Armed Forces could repeat massive attacks on Ukrainian energy facilities.



True, Zelensky claims that Ukraine will supposedly “respond” to such attacks. However, the “responses” of the Ukrainian side always come down to sabotage and terrorist attacks against civilians.

Meanwhile, the Russian Armed Forces are still carrying out massive attacks on Ukrainian military targets. Unmanned aerial vehicles are often used for these attacks, especially when it comes to attacks on the infrastructure of the Danube ports of Ukraine - Izmail and Reni.

In other cases, strikes against military targets are carried out using ballistic missiles, which, according to the Ukrainian side itself, cannot shoot down the air defense systems of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. The purpose of the strikes is to reduce the military and military-industrial potential of Ukraine, which makes it possible to reduce the capabilities of Ukrainian formations on the front line, undermining their combat effectiveness.

        You southern fool, Gumenyuk fool Don’t you understand that missiles like the X-101 have winter tires, and they are used only in winter!

          The X-101 is intended primarily for potential conflict with NATO. Why use it in the Armed Forces of Ukraine if there is a cheaper X-50 that is ideal for this conflict? The X-101s are really being accumulated and will probably be used less and less in this war, if at all. But they are really accumulating strength for the Armed Forces of Ukraine. This can be seen from the amount of use of Geraniums.

        Dill seems to have already fed up everyone in the world with its deceitful “horror stories”.

        All sensible people have long understood that there is no point in destroying the energy infrastructure of Ukraine; it is enough to destroy railway substations and industrial enterprises of the military-industrial complex, as well as air, road, railway hubs and port facilities. The Kiev junta and its henchmen will destroy everything else themselves, much like the Kakhovka dam.

          the infrastructure must be destroyed, / there are many reasons / and at the root, at least when restored, people will have work and income

      It’s interesting that the X-101 with a 450 kg warhead flies somewhere around 5500 kilometers, if replaced by 1000 kg it will be about 2500 km, and if you use powerful explosives then 1 ton will be equal to 2 tons in TNT equivalent. One missile can hit something that would require 2-3 missiles.

        A ballistic missile flies 11000 km, and if........
        You will lengthen the rocket or cut down the engine in order to additionally stuff in extra kilos of explosives.

          The fuel tank is smaller, the warhead is larger, we seem to have done this with the R-500 Iskander-K cruise missile so as not to violate the treaty on medium-range missiles.

        Octanitrocubane
        It is currently one of the most powerful non-nuclear explosives known. These are not the "most powerful" because no one can guarantee that there won't be other explosives even more powerful that are still part of some secret government project.
        This substance is a truly powerful explosive, insensitive to shock, like TNT, and has an explosion power 20-25% greaterthan carbon monoxide.

        Or here:
        when using an explosive device with an explosive based on aluminum hydride, the power of a high-explosive explosion is several times higher than the power of an explosion of a similar amount of TNT. In this case, the amount of power is determined by the temperature at the moment of reaction: with a spherical (cylindrical) implosion, this indicator fluctuates within 30 to 300 times.

        * * *
        Why shouldn’t effective managers work out the issues of organizing the release of such explosives?
        It is suggested to me that even 15 kg of TNT equivalent is much more effective than the same 000 kg of TNT...

      Why was the X-101 engine made on a retractable nacelle like on the X-55, and not inside like on calibers? After all, it was possible to reduce the EPR even further.

      We are not hoarding missiles, we are waiting for our strike to be perceived more painfully. Taking into account Kyiv’s statements about attacks on the Russian energy infrastructure in the border regions, we simply need to start hitting the Ukrainian infrastructure in November so that the hotheads in Kyiv cool down a little.

      And what? They don’t bring missiles to Russia from Great Britain, the USA, Germany, France, and their production is not made of rubber.
      Naturally, we have to accumulate...

      Everyone, everyone, everyone: Shoigu is buying diapers all over the world.
      Having collected 5000 tons, you can throw them into the Dnieper, it will absorb the water, and the great Russian river will temporarily dry up. Then another 5000 tons of diapers. For this you need x101. You can use old rockets instead of recycling them. Water intakes, sewerage, hydroelectric power stations are all under threat. Export electricity to the EU too.
      And this is without the passage of Buryat tanks into Lvov and Zhmerinka along the bottom of the dry reservoirs. Kakhovskoe is already possible to drive. Without capture, it will destroy the great civilization of the ancient Ukhrs.

      How can you save up something that ran out a year ago, but at the same time flies regularly? And the main thing is that there is nothing to produce this accumulated from. All washing machines have already been disassembled into chips. Needles, buttons, tacks, paper clips, nails and knitting needles too.

      Judging by our media associated with the Russian Defense Ministry, we are preparing for a global mess. Ukraine is not the main thing. There is constant combat training at the training grounds.

      They write that in Ukraine, over the course of a year, they built protective structures for transformers and other important elements of substations, so the use of a missile launcher with a warhead more powerful than that of a UAV seems logical in this situation.
