"Wave series": the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation is experimenting with the tactics

To spread: Russian occupation troops are experimenting and deliberately changing the tactics of launch of shock drones of Shahamed type to deplete and suppress the Ukraine's air defense system. This is stated in the report of the American Institute for War Study (ISW).

"The Russian army earlier launched the drone of the long -range" Shahhed "radius of waves against different purposes every night, and these reports of the use of drones in more dense formations indicate that Russian troops believe that this new tactic will more effectively supply Ukrainian air defense," the report said.

Analysts have specified that in mid -February and early March 2025, Russian troops have struck much more, but in recent weeks they have struck more similar to the trends observed in January and early February 2025, albeit using fewer rockets. "At the end of March and early April 2025, Russian troops returned to a more typical scheme of strikes after a temporary splash in the size of Russian shock bags of long range in mid -February and early March 2025," - said in ISW.

The institute emphasized that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation use "Shahda" in the most dense order to destroy Ukrainian air defense systems, in particular the Russians concentrate a group of 10-15 drones outside the city before hitting it. We will remind, on the night of April 11 to 12 the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation caused attacks with drones in Kiev and Kharkiv, using UAVs of the type "Shahaned". The focus also wrote about how Shahledi is adapted to civilians.
