Russian aviation has not flown into the zone of destruction of Ukrainian air defense systems for more than 3 months. The invaders changed their tactics after serious losses.
Back in March, the invaders hoped that with one missile strike they would destroy our entire air defense. Yuri Ignat, spokesman for the Air Force Command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, spoke about this on the air of the telethon, channel 24 reports.
However, the Russians miscalculated and began to “receive” in the first weeks, when there were stubborn air battles. In particular, over the Kiev region or Kharkov region. Then they changed tactics.
For more than 3 months they have not flown into the zone of destruction of our air defense, – said Ignat.

Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, the Armed Forces of Ukraine have destroyed thousands of units of enemy equipment, including quite a few aircraft. For example, 234 aircraft, 204 helicopters, 151 air defense systems and 847 drones.
Despite the insane losses, according to open data, Russia has about 4 thousand units of lethal equipment. However, not all equipment is in good condition. In addition, the aggressor state does not have many pilots with real combat experience.
Earlier, the Air Force reported that Russia had increased the number of aircraft near the Ukrainian borders. We have accumulated about 800 aircraft and helicopters.
