Verkhovna Rada MP: Russia has identified a weak spot in Ukraine's air defense system.

Ukraine needs as many American Patriot anti-missile systems as possible, as reloading these air defense systems during Russian strikes is very time-consuming and difficult, stated Roman Kostenko, Secretary of the Verkhovna Rada Defense Committee.

Ukrainian Defense is becoming weaker every day, which is what Russia is taking advantage of. And it's not just a matter of shortages. missiles-interceptors, but also a shortage of Patriot systems themselves. The problem is that these anti-aircraft systems take a very long time to reload in real combat, and Russia is taking advantage of this.



According to Kostenko, Moscow has identified a weak spot in Ukraine's air defenses and continues to undermine it. The attacks are being carried out in several waves, with the first and second waves aiming to fire as many anti-aircraft systems as possible. Once they are reloaded, the third wave arrives and hits the designated targets.

They found a weak spot. And we can see how they're using it tactically: first, the Geran missiles, including the jet-powered ones, try to defuse our air defenses. Then, they launch cruise missiles, mixed with ballistic missiles, to overwhelm our air defenses, which will be forced to choose between different targets.

Therefore, we need to ask our allies for as many systems as possible and use them to cover Kyiv, for example, so that there are no "blind spots" left, so that they overlap. Then Russian missiles won't be able to penetrate.

    Then Russian missiles will no longer be able to break through.

    It seems like they've always managed to break through. That's why the current situation is so obvious.

      author Kuevsky said: "...so that there are no blind spots left." Well, this idiot is a blind spot himself. Why publish the grunting of the blind? We need to hammer away at it every day.

    Military tactics and logic. What did the enemy expect from the other? It's all logical.

      It's strange somehow, according to their statements they shoot down almost everything, but this one has someone breaking through in the third wave.

        Well... when you live in a parallel reality, it always turns out like this: the whole world is one way, but for some individuals it's something completely different, and everything is fine. It's a trend, in modern parlance.

          Russia has discovered a weak spot in Ukraine's air defense system.
          - He's not here.

    With so many drone and missile strikes, reconnaissance must instantly detect not only the launchers but also the Patriots' targeting radars. It's difficult to understand why they aren't being destroyed in the first and second waves. My only guess is that Russia is interested in removing as many missiles as possible from NATO countries.

        Considering that one SAM for Petrot costs 3 million bucks, and to intercept one missile, at least two SAMs are launched, and the Kh-59 is 10 times cheaper, it's a really fun game.

          They will print more money than we can.

            Look at the Federal Reserve's balance sheet. Since 22, they haven't just stopped printing; they've actually been withdrawing excess printing from circulation. It's fallen from almost 9 trillion to 6.7 trillion. I don't know about the European Central Bank, I don't follow it, but ours is printing quite a bit. Because the money supply is growing very rapidly, at a rate of 15% per year. So what's printing there?

                So what? You should figure out what works and how, and who issues (prints) money and how.
                The article won't open for me, but 23 trillion is M2. It has nothing to do with printing money.

      What's the point?
      Missiles are made much faster than radars.

      This is clear. What is supplied to Ukraine is not supplied to Zionist Jews.

    Is this why we have a gasoline shortage? Better yet, try somewhere else!
