According to the speaker of the Air Force Elijah Yevlash,

"Only in rare cases": a "zircon" strike may indicate a shortage of other missiles in the Russian Federation (video)

According to the speaker of the Air Force Elijah Yevlash, "Zircon" is a rather difficult rocket, very expensive and powerful. Its launch can be an experiment to check Ukraine's aircraft. Possible use of Russia's hypersonic missiles "Zircon" may mean that in the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation deficiency of other types of missiles. This was announced on the air of Radio Liberty by a spokesman for the Air Force of Ukraine Ilya Yevlash.

According to him, the Russian Federation can also check the air defense system of Ukraine. Yevlash noted that in the Research Expert Center they still establish whether the occupiers used the Zircon missile during the latest attacks in Ukraine. "What they use them is most likely indicative that they already have a weapon shortage, otherwise they would not use them.

In general, this type of missiles is anti -ship, and it is used only in rare cases, use different starting installations, type "Bastion", "Ball". However, we can say that if they had a different type of missile rockets, "Calibers", "Iskander", and other missiles, they would use them, "they said," they said Evlash. According to him, "Zircon" is a rather complex rocket, very expensive and powerful. Its launch can be an experiment to check Ukraine's aircraft.

"Where, as it is protected, what is covered in the future to use it when planning their subsequent air attacks," Yevlash said. Recall that experts dispelled the myth of Russian "hypersonic" rockets. Russian engineers, according to the Polish analyst Maximilian Dura, really managed to develop a hypersonic rocket jet engine. However, Zircon enters the shock trajectory at a perm -speed speed. The Navy also spoke about hunting for launchers "Zircon".
