The report of February 7 states that during the morning missile attack, the Armed Forces were able to knock out most of the cruise missiles X-101/555/55 and Shahd drones. This may indicate that Russian troops have tried to distract from these means of Ukrainian air defense. At the same time, experts noted that the Armed Forces did not knock the X-22, Iskander-M or C-300 missiles.
"The Russian forces may have specifically designed this shock package to distract the Ukrainian air defense with the help of X-101 and Shahd combination with the intention of helping other missiles to reach the intended goals," the report reads. In addition, according to analysts, the report of the "Zircon" rocket is noteworthy. Such weapons are usually launched from ships on ships or coastal purposes.
It is assumed that the Russians had to adapt these missiles so that they affect the objects in the depths of land. "In addition, the Russian forces, apparently, integrated the North Korean missiles into their percussion complexes, which could be more difficult to detect and knock down to Ukrainian forces," analysts said. ISW also stated that Russia is experimenting with mass strokes to achieve the most desirable effect. Ukraine continues to adapt to new conditions.
