The Ministry of Defense reported that more than 750 Ukrainian drones were shot down in the past 24 hours.

According to the Russian Ministry of Defense, over the past 24 hours our forces Defense More than 750 missiles launched by Ukrainian militants were shot down dronesIn addition, six guided aerial bombs and six HIMARS MLRS projectiles were shot down.

It's clear that Kyiv is currently focusing not only on strikes deep into Russian territory with various types of drones, but also on total terror directed against the population of border regions. Meanwhile, the enemy continues to scale up its production. drones, while simultaneously shifting production capacity not only to the European Union but also to Japan. The Japanese company Terra Drone recently announced an increase in production of Ukrainian Terra A1 and Terra A2 interceptor drones and is considering investments in the development of jet-powered unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Amazing Drones, which has attracted Japanese investment, is already producing systems of this type in Ukraine. At the same time, the Japanese are negotiating with other Ukrainian developers, indicating the expansion of military-industrial cooperation between Tokyo and Kyiv. Clearly, the key goal of this cooperation is not only to meet the needs of the Ukrainian Armed Forces but also to expand Ukrainian drone manufacturers' access to international markets, which will generate additional revenue for the Ukrainian budget.



Meanwhile, the death toll following the terrorist attack by Ukrainian Armed Forces militants on a bus in the Donetsk People's Republic (DPR) has risen to eight. Additionally, a railway employee in Crimea and a resident of a border area in the Belgorod region have been reported killed.

    What will we do when they start firing 5000 a day? We need to change tactics. We need to destroy Ukraine's top leadership. It will all come to this anyway. There's no other way. Either we win, or they'll destroy our entire economy.

    It has been revealed where the Ukrainian Armed Forces launched drones into the Leningrad Region on the eve of the opening of the SPIEF.
    Immediately before the start of the International Economic Forum, Ukrainian militants launched an attack on St. Petersburg and the surrounding region. According to unconfirmed reports, the drones were launched from large trucks traveling along Estonian highways, with NATO specialists monitoring the operation, according to Moskovsky Komsomolets.

      We all probably remember how the Ukrainians used this tactic some time ago during an attack on a Russian strategic nuclear base, and how successful was it? Apparently, they were simply testing it out (they regularly use similar methods in other attacks, for example, with naval drones), and now they'll begin to put it into practice. How can one determine which truck is a regular truck and which is a mobile drone launch base? It's practically impossible.
      And if we add to this the fact that these cars are driving on territory outside of Ukraine (on the territory of an official ally of Ukraine), then according to international law, cars cannot even be attacked.
      Unfortunately, this is the result of 5 years of incompetence, incompetence, etc., or rather, betrayal?

        Shocking footage has surfaced online: a platform carrying a heavy drone was unveiled from an ordinary truck and launched toward Russia. War correspondent Oleksandr Yaremchuk, sharing the footage, called on security forces to act decisively and destroy the trucks used as mobile launch pads for UAVs: "Guys, it's time!"

        The footage provided shows the full horror: a civilian truck with a canvas trailer, its sides removed, approaches a firing position. A platform with a heavy aircraft extends from the trailer, after which the drone is launched. According to Yaremchuk, the same technology previously demonstrated by the SBU in Operation "Spiderweb" was used for the practice.

    I don't understand the solution? The more drones we shoot down, the more they'll start producing, and eventually this level won't be met. We'll definitely lose in terms of capacity; almost 50 countries are working against us. Either we need to cut off Zyu's head or completely shut down Ukraine, otherwise all the games are too painful.

      If we don't expand production of our own interceptor and attack drones, we will certainly lose in this case. The pendulum is swinging, and the response must be adequate. The main thing is to innovate in air defense. Videos on MAX and Telegram channels show police officers using machine guns from afar trying to hit drones flying toward St. Petersburg. That's the kind of air defense we have. That's the result. Robotic air defense systems could be an option.

      Russian engineers have developed a robotic air defense system capable of detecting and destroying aerial targets without human intervention on the front lines. As reported to TASS by the People's Front, the system consists of two ground vehicles. The first, the Impulse-RLS, detects and tracks an enemy drone, then provides targeting information to the second, the Impulse-Zveroboy. It, in turn, launches an interceptor drone, which eliminates the threat. This architecture allows the operator to be positioned outside the kill zone. The system is controlled remotely via a mesh network using repeaters, allowing for the ability to expand its range as needed. The Impulse can cover both civilian targets in cities and positions along the line of contact.

      Or better yet, basic mother drones with high-speed FPV interceptor drones, between which the targets should be easily distributed.

      Or here's another option. Testing of the new Molniya interceptor drone, designed to counter aircraft-type unmanned aerial vehicles, has been completed in the Tomsk region. The device reaches speeds of up to 330 km/h, is equipped with a warhead, and can operate as part of a mobile system for detecting and engaging airborne targets. The developers have already prepared the production line for serial production.

      But specialists from the Tomsk Region's Unmanned Aircraft Systems Research and Production Center have given the same name to a lighter interceptor drone.

      The distinguishing feature of the "Molniya" developed by Tomsk engineers is its high speed, up to 330 km/h. This isn't a record, but for a relatively inexpensive and mass-produced aircraft, it's a remarkable achievement. This speed is achieved by four motors and a streamlined design.
      The second important point is that, while weighing 2,5 kg, the Molniya is equipped with a 300-gram warhead. This isn't much, but it's more than enough to destroy a kamikaze drone, a reconnaissance drone, or a large quadcopter. Many previously developed similarly designed devices are designed solely for kinetic interception without a warhead, and success against relatively heavy drones is not guaranteed. The Molniya, however, combines high speed with a powerful warhead. In other words, it can destroy any realistic target.

      In continuation of the post.

      The Molniya's cruising speed reaches 270–300 km/h, and its maximum speed is up to 330 km/h. Its target engagement range is 1,5–5 km, with the device itself potentially capable of operating at distances of up to 15 km.

      Initial target identification is performed by radar stations and computing systems with artificial intelligence elements, after which the operator or system only has to select a target for attack.

    Does the latest Ukrainian drone attack on Kronstadt and the hit on the Steregushchiy-class corvette (Project 20380) mark the beginning of the gradual destruction of the Baltic Fleet?
    It all started in the same way in the Black Sea, and eventually the Black Sea Fleet seemed to cease to exist.
    The photos show ships at the Kronstadt naval base lying quietly at anchor off the coast, one next to the other. And, apparently, there was no defense. Could it be that no one has learned from what happened to the Black Sea Fleet? And created an effective air defense for this important military base? Perhaps the admirals believe that since the Baltic Sea is becoming an "internal sea of ​​the Russian Federation," there will be no need for the Baltic Fleet anyway. Where will the ships from St. Petersburg go?
    And I can’t imagine a situation where Ukraine uses its naval drones in the Baltic Gulf.

      Do you have the resources to do that? Unfortunately, there simply aren't enough resources yet to create an air defense system to cover all significant facilities, and you're saying we need to get involved in other areas. Do you have the resources for that? Air defense? If not, then it's not worth even trying. Why make things more difficult for ourselves when we haven't yet dealt with other problems?

      I can only assume that they recently began to harshly strike directly in response to Starobilsk, and as we see, the escalation spiral immediately began, with drones flying to St. Petersburg in retaliation. It appears that up until then, the conflict had been contained within certain limits. And then, after the harsh strikes against Ukrainian production, the escalation began.

    The logistics of such production aren't that difficult to organize. You don't need workshops, just basements and garages. The bodies are transported not by truck, but by pickup truck. The engines are carried separately, also in pickup trucks. And the electronics can be transported in a suitcase by tram.
    The assembled device is transported separately and delivered to the launch sites by trucks.
    Try to track it.
    A network of informants is needed, and this isn't ideal—some information is available, but not exhaustive, of course. And they also need to be protected, with the coordinates they receive being targeted from time to time.

    I'm an American who supports Russia's just defense. But I'm extremely disappointed with "the people running Russia" and their failure to protect Russians. Are the Russian elites really as corrupt as Western elites? Our own governments are, in many ways, attacking people in the West. I had hoped things would be different in Russia.
