“The enemy is now trying to reconnoiter as much as possible. To collect information in those southern regions where the Russian fighters were shot down. It is clear that they are looking for the means by which those planes were sent on their “eternal flight,” Ignat said.
According to him, in this way, the enemy uses much less airborne weapons.
“Especially controlled aerial bombs. In particular, in the Kherson direction. In fact, these are isolated cases,” Ignat emphasized.
According to him, the enemy must understand perfectly well and has already understood that our systems, including long-range systems provided by partners, can appear in different directions.
“Not only where the Russian Su-34 suffered this story. This is the Odessa region, there were cases. We also know the Bryansk direction. We can carry out such operations, I mean the Air Force, in different directions. The only question is that there will be more these systems,” Ignat concluded.
