The conveyor is working: Does the Russian Federation have rockets to hit Ukraine twice as much in Ukraine - an expert (video)
Petro Chernik told about whether the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation is able to make twice as much as during the last blows during the last blows in a comment to the TSN. ua. ua. Chernik stated that the Russian Federation had about 7,000 missiles of different types at the beginning of the invasion. Among them are long-range X-101, "daggers", "calibers" (fly up to 2500-5000 km) and low range-aviation missiles X-31, X-35, X-59 (fly to a distance of up to 110-300 km).
As of January 2024, the Kremlin is able to shoot 120 rockets at the same time, but has not yet been able to significantly exceed the massive strikes of the first days of the war, it is commented on the portal. The expert explained that during the war, the Russians used 85-90% of the initial arsenal of rockets and left only a strategic stock that it is impossible to take.
The industry of the Russian Federation continues to work, releasing about 100-120 rockets every month, it was conversation with journalists. During one of the last air strikes, on December 29, 2023, the Russians used 122 missiles, cringing their own calculations. Meanwhile, in the first days of the war, the most massive blow consisted of about the same number of shells - 120 pcs. So, Petro Chernyk summed up, a conveyor is really working in the Russian Federation.
However, its capacity has not been increased - it still has a productivity that does not allow, for example, to run twice as much rockets in Ukraine at a time. In addition, there is another aspect that limits the scale of shelling - the old aircraft at the disposal of the Russian Federation. In particular, they are recharged for a long time and are not too loaded. Of the 60 bombers of the Russian Federation, only 20 in working condition, the expert said.
"Recharging bombers-in the range from three to four days. , 5 tons. The youngest glider is 1994 production. But it is a tremendous load on nodes and mechanisms. " It should be noted that in December 2023 and at the beginning of 2025 the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation caused massive blows in Ukraine. On December 29, the enemy launched 158 missiles of various types and drones. According to the military administration, explosions in the largest cities - in Kiev, Kharkiv, Odessa, Lviv.
The air command reported 114 air purposes. On January 2, almost a hundred rockets flew in Ukraine: 72 were beaten. Another massive blow took place on January 8: about 50 rockets flew. The Air Force forces managed to knock down 18 targets (and 8 more drones): Air Force spokesman Yuri Ignat said that more Patriot was needed to neutralize ballistics in Ukraine.
