Mig-29 intercepted a drone: Kovalenko told why it was "bad news" for the Armed Forces (video)

According to a military-political observer, this type of aviation is not intended to intercept drones in the sky. The Ukrainian MiG-29 fighter could intercept the Russian reconnaissance drone, but this news is not quite positive. The military-political observer of the Information Resistance group Alexander Kovalenko explained why in his Telegram-channel.

According to him, there is no doubt in the professionalism of the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces, but there is little positive from published personnel. The fact is that combat aviation is not quite suitable for trapping drones. A lot of resources are spent on this.

"Positive zero, because to knock down the miracle goals is not the functionality of the MiG-29 that needs to be raised in the air, to spend a resource on teens to drone, to start a rocket price by price more expensive than the same Orlan-10, at the same time managing to dodge the fragmentation his own rocket and destroyed drone, ”Alexander Kovalenko wrote. Objectives, as continued by the military-political observer, must intercept the air defense systems of the near radius of action.

In addition, this decision may indicate that there is no complete coverage of Odessa by means of air defense of this echelon. "And to destroy the reconnaissance drone that quotes and adjusts the strokes of ballistic missiles, instead of the use of an inexpensive rocket, a whole fighter is launched in the air," - continued Alexander Kovalenko. We will remind, on April 22 it was reported how to fight "eagles", Zala and SuperCam over Ukrainian cities.
