After the destruction of at least three planes during the attack on the Belbek airfield on January 31, the occupiers are trying to find the safest starting points for themselves. At the same time, the advantage of the Russian Federation in the air remains, but the Armed Forces of Ukraine are trying to "equalize it as much as possible."
How the tactics of the Russian Federation changed after the destruction of the planes at "Belbek"
Obviously, they are trying to find the most safe starting points for themselves. They are not approaching the areas where it was a painful lesson for them, but, nevertheless, we continue to work so that the enemy's aviation becomes less and the confirmation of this is the effective work on the "Belbek" airfield, where minus three (planes, ed.) again, she stated.
At the same time, Humenyuk noted that despite the loss of aircraft, the advantage of the Russian Federation in the air remains, but the Ukrainian defense forces are trying to "equalize it as much as possible."
In particular, and precisely the same lesson I was talking about, that they are afraid that the use of aviation at those boundaries, directions and distances that they allowed themselves before will be critical for them. In addition, they seriously complain about our very powerful work to destroy their drones. That is, they are increasing the use of FPV drones, but this is not effective, because we are finding countermeasures, the speaker stated.
