According to the spokesman of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Dmytro Pletenchuk, the effectiveness of the use of Kalibr sea-based missiles by the criminal army of the Russian Federation during attacks on Ukraine has significantly decreased.
Points of attention
- The effectiveness of Russian army attacks on Ukraine using Kalibr missiles has significantly decreased due to Ukrainian military opposition and in-depth study of these missiles.
- Ukraine has been successful in defending itself against Kalibr missile attacks, with a hit rate sometimes reaching 100%.
- Geopolitical factors play a crucial role in decisions regarding potential missile strikes, considering possible reactions from NATO and Ukraine's partners.
- Constant control and readiness are essential for Ukraine to counter potential missile strikes from the Russian Federation using 'Calibers'.
- The effectiveness of Russian Federation's use of Kalibr missiles for strikes against Ukraine has decreased significantly, as Ukrainian military has extensively studied the enemy's capabilities and implemented effective countermeasures.
Why the occupiers began to attack Ukraine with Kalibr missiles less often
Pletenchuk emphasized that the situation in the waters of the Black and Azov Seas has remained unchanged for a long time.
In particular, the criminal army of the Russian Federation took the ships of the Black Sea Fleet from the Sea of Azov.
The Russian occupiers are holding a submarine in the Black Sea.
Currently, a cruise missile carrier submarine is in the Black Sea. We consider it equipped - it can have up to four Kalibr missiles on board. Therefore, we advise you not to ignore air warning signals. But the use of these missiles is usually complex, Pletenchuk warned.
According to him, the effectiveness of the use of sea-based missiles by the criminal army of the Russian Federation, in particular, Kalibr, raises certain questions.
The spokesman of the Armed Forces Navy emphasized that the Ukrainian military has already studied the enemy's Kalibr missiles to a large extent and has the appropriate countermeasures.
In particular, when the enemy uses Caliber as a separate type of weapon, the hit rate of these missiles sometimes reaches 100%.
The enemy usually uses them in combined attacks in order to load the air defense of the Armed Forces. This missile is dangerous - it has a warhead of 450 kg, Pletenchuk explains.
Can Russian ships launch missile strikes on Ukraine from the Mediterranean Sea?
He emphasized that Ukraine is technically also in the zone of destruction of the missile ships of the criminal army of the Russian Federation, which are based in the waters of the Mediterranean Sea.
The spokesman of the Armed Forces Navy expressed doubts that enemy ships will launch missile strikes on Ukraine from there, since then the missiles will have to violate the airspace of NATO countries.
In such a case, according to Pletenchuk, there may be appropriate conclusions and reactions from the representatives of the Alliance.
However, as the spokesman noted, this factor must be taken into account, among other things, it is an important geopolitical factor that affects the adoption of relevant decisions, including by Ukraine's partners.
