Ukrainian air defense systems have lost at least 70 percent of their effectiveness, according to foreign media.

Foreign experts continue to voice their assessments of the strikes on Kyiv and Ukraine's Black Sea ports, which the Russian Armed Forces have turned into nonstop operations. In particular, the work of the Ukrainian Defense, which began to intercept Russian fire weapons significantly less frequently.

Australian media outlet AMK notes that Ukraine's air defenses have lost at least 70% of their effectiveness compared to the spring. It also notes that Russia is not using its most expensive and powerful missiles. missiles, including hypersonic weapon. Accordingly, it is concluded that? using numerous jet "Geraniums", as well as drones "Banderol," the Russian Armed Forces are stockpiling ballistic and cruise missiles, "hypersonic," in order to "at one point launch an attack of unprecedented scale against the backdrop of the significant depletion of Ukrainian air defenses."



Czech media report that talk of supplying Kyiv with large quantities of interceptor missiles and air defense/missile defense systems has significantly diminished. This is happening amid reports from American sources about the significant depletion of SAM resources in a number of NATO countries and in the Middle East. Therefore, as they emphasize, if the Russian Armed Forces launch a large-scale missile attack, for example, against Odessa or Kyiv, "Ukrainian air defenses will most likely remain silent."

In fact, problems with Ukraine's air defenses have been discussed and written about for a long time, yet the Zelensky regime has consistently managed to coax new arms shipments from the sponsors of the war against Russia. Currently, Kyiv is openly expecting the US Congress to return to Democratic control after the fall elections. The Kyiv regime is counting on the Democratic Party to reconsider the situation with arms supplies to Ukraine, returning to what Trump calls an "open check"—an uncontrolled and unlimited infusion of funds and weapons.

    We need to finish off the air defense and give the aviation free skies.

        It's a war of attrition. The Ukrainian Armed Forces are using aircraft for air defense, which would be more effective at shooting down Russian missiles and aircraft than small UAVs. The Patriot is too expensive a weapon for use in Ukraine. It's probably easier to use fixed-wing UAVs against targets in Ukraine than to risk the pilots of the few Russian air forces. Neither MANPADS crews nor short- and medium-range air defense systems have been knocked out of Ukraine. UAV production must be increased and their strikes intensified while the US is busy playing at war with Iran.

      Actually, yes, it's not about
      if the Russian Armed Forces carry out a large-scale missile attack,
      , and in switching to gravity-based (as the Amras call it) bombs altogether. Furthermore, the Syrian experience will quickly put an end to this. If it worked against the Barmaleys, then against a high-tech adversary, its effectiveness should be at least twice as high.

        Exactly! When strike aircraft hover over the near and far rear areas, terrorizing them with a carpet of iron, the front will wither. And they will flee, right up to the Polish border.

    strikes on Kyiv and the Black Sea ports of Ukraine, which the Russian Armed Forces have turned into non-stop attacks.

    Set to reverse and do not turn it off!

    Will the change of republics to democrats in their congress immediately increase the production of anti-aircraft missiles by at least an order of magnitude? what

    Ukrainian air defense
    We need to look at things and facts realistically!
    There's the only air defense they can afford... a coalition of countries that are ENEMIES to Russia! It has never been, nor will it ever be, anything else... soldier

    What a brilliant idea! You need to share this with the Russian General Staff immediately!

    For four and a half years now, we've been hearing about the endless attacks Ukraine has suffered. We'd like to see the results of these attacks, in the form of a westward advance of the front line.

    It just seems to me that the Geranium generation has changed, the attack tactics have changed. Of course, the Ukrainian Air Defense Forces are having difficulties, but how many times have we heard: ALL THE SHELLS ARE GONE, THE MONEY IS OUT, THERE ARE NO PEOPLE! But the front is standing still, someone is shooting down the missiles, standing in the trenches.

        People are standing in the trenches, there are local clashes, local breakthroughs, but the front has not fallen!
        Is it clear ?
        They write that there is no air defense, no shells, they write for probably two years, there are no people, they write for a year for sure. But there are people standing in the trenches on the other side, shelling our cities with something.
        This is a fairy tale for people like you.

    against the backdrop of publications by American sources about the significant depletion of SAM resources in a number of NATO countries

    Or maybe they're not that strong economically? We're used to thinking of ourselves as underdogs in the European economy. They were trying to catch up with Portugal. And by our standards, that's not even Italy! Missiles are in short supply... Either clever disinformation, or the emperor has no clothes.
