Meanwhile, US defense officials said Russia was now starting to have “inventory problems” with precision-guided missiles.
“Some of them failed to launch, or failed to hit their target, or failed to explode on contact,” the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, was quoted as saying CNNTuesday (22/3/2022).
“You’re seeing an increase in the use of what we call dumb bombs,” the official continued, referring to a more basic type of explosive that lacks the technology to strike a specific target.
Russia has never commented on any reports of failed weapons operated in its war in Ukraine.
Moscow has recently used cruise missiles and hypersonic missiles in its invasions. The use of hypersonic missiles in real war is a world first.
