Deteriorating weather complicates the work of mobile anti-aircraft fire groups, but Ukrainian fighters still destroy Russian targets in the sky.
The influence of weather on the work of mobile air defence groups
The spokesman of the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Yuriy Ignat, noted on the telethon air that the weather does not interfere with anti-aircraft missile systems. Still, it will be a problem for mobile fire groups.
Poor visibility, fog, and the night is much longer than the day. Well, they definitely attack at night, as you saw from the statistics. Therefore, it really complicates the work of those units that need visual reference to the target.
However, Ukrainian defenders can adapt to bad weather conditions and destroy Russian objects in the sky.
