Why the Russian Federation Launches No More Than 50-60 Missiles at a Time: Explanation by Defense Express.
A group of experts discusses the reasons for the limited use of cruise missiles by the Russian Federation
In the last three days, the Russian Federation has attacked Ukraine using various types of weapons, including cruise missiles, high-speed, and ballistic missiles. However, despite the large number of missiles produced, the enemy launches only 50-60 at a time. This situation does not match the production pace, indicating potential problems for the enemy.
"In addition to traditional carriers, strategic bombers Tu-160 were involved in their launch, which is a very rare phenomenon," specialists comment.
Large attacks occurred on the night of May 25 and May 26. During this time, the enemy used 64 cruise missiles, of which a significant part was shot down. Among the possible reasons for the limited use of missiles, experts mention the difficulty in organizing attacks and the limited number of carriers.
"There is a very high risk for the enemy to deploy surface ships and limited capabilities of submarines to launch missiles," analysts explain.
Additionally, the causes may include damage to infrastructure, conservation of the Tu-95MS resource, as well as a lack of fully operational aircraft in the Russian Federation. These factors complicate the use of missiles and may give Ukraine an advantage in the conflict.
