The Russians lifted TU-22 several times a day: in the Armed Forces told about the whole of the Russian Federation (video)

The Air Force spokesman Ilya Yevlash explained the behavior of the occupiers on Channel 24. Yevlash noted that Russian aircraft can be used not only for rocket strokes, but also for various internal maneuvers. In addition, sometimes the invaders simply move the planes. Air anxiety in Ukraine is activated when Russian aircraft is raised into the air when the potential risk of missile attacks increases. The Armed Forces representative stressed that it is necessary to take alarm signals seriously.

"We cannot risk the lives of our citizens. We ask all Ukrainians not to neglect alarm and go down into shelter, as the enemy is treacherous and can use weapons at any moment," Yevlash said. He also noted that defense forces cannot be sure of what actions the enemy plans to take and that the tactics of using aircraft for maneuvers are not new. An example of this is the constant ups of Mig-31K fighters, carriers of "daggers".

"It is impossible to say that it is a new tactic, but to keep our air defense forces, they use such movements," Yevlash added. Most often for attacks on Ukraine the Russian side uses strategic bombers Tu-95 and TU-22M3. Tu-95 is a strategic Soviet bomber-trainer who has a flight range of up to 13 thousand kilometers and is able to carry almost two dozen rockets. TU-22M3 bombers are also actively used in attacks, which are launched by X-22 missiles, which are difficult to intercept.

We will remind, on the night of March 28 the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation attacked a number of regions of Ukraine with the help of winged missiles X-22, anti-radiolocation missile X-31P, anti-aircraft controlled missile C-300 and 28 unmanned aerial aircraft type ShahED-136/131. On March 28, it became known that the Russians began to upgrade and use them in certain areas of the front.
