The Challenges of Striking Russian Drone Launch Sites: Insights from a Military Expert

A military expert spoke about what is preventing Ukrainian defense forces from striking Russian drone launch sites.

Oleg Zhdanov was asked a question: if we know where the Russians are launching Shahed attacks on Ukraine, then why the Ukrainian Armed Forces have not yet destroyed this place. In response to this, the military expert reported what was preventing this from being done.

Oleg Zhdanov’s opinion on why we do not destroy Russian drone launch sites can be found in the video on YouTube.

A reserve colonel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine spoke about what the launch site of Russian drones in Crimea is like: “I’ll explain what Cape Chauda is. Cape Chauda is a training ground, it is a former training center of the Black Sea Fleet of the Soviet Union. Then it was divided into two parts: part went to us, and part of it remained with the Russian Federation. The fact is that at this training ground there are bunker-type structures, and operators sit in these bunkers, that is, it is not so easy to get them. We need to use special anti-bunker missiles to turn this bunker inside out“.

After this, the military expert named another difficulty that does not allow the Ukrainian Armed Forces to destroy the Shahed launch site: “Second: we do not know in which specific bunker these operators are sitting, that is, there is more than one bunker there. In order to identify them, the scout needs to walk around with his feet and study everything carefully, and then we will have information about which bunker to hit. And, as I already said, we need anti-bunker missiles, because neither Storm Shadow nor SCALP can do anything to this bunker.”

Earlier, Zhdanov voiced a huge problem that arose with the Russian authorities.

Zhdanov also announced when the Crimean Bridge could finally be destroyed.

Let us recall that Zhdanov explained why the West will never allow Ukraine to strike the Russian Federation with its weapons.
