Competitions between Ukraine and the Russian Federation: Analysts told how the Kremlin checks Ukrainian air defense

This was reported in the report of the Institute of War Study (ISW) for January 3. Experts noted that during the shelling, from January 1 to January 2, the Ukrainian military successfully shot down more Chad's unmanned aerial vehicles compared to the previous large -scale attack on December 29. In addition, many dagger missiles were eliminated. The report added that Ukraine's air defense forces probably successfully adapted to the tactics of blows used by the Russians on December 29.

ISW emphasizes that Russian attacks on Ukraine are part of a tactical and technological confrontation between the offensive and defense. As part of this competition, both parties constantly conduct experiments and adapt their tactics for each other, especially in the field of long -range impact and air defense.

"The assistance of the West to Ukraine remains critical, as Russian troops will probably continue to experiment and implement new ways of bypassing Ukrainian air defense," the Institute of War Study notes. The report also confirms the information presented by analysts and published in the British edition of Telegraph. According to these data, Ukraine may need to regulate its air defense missile systems in the face of reducing support from the event.

In addition, it will be necessary to strengthen the protection of strategically important objects by redistribution of air defense systems from less protected frontline areas. We will remind that in the morning on Tuesday, January 2, 2024, Russian invaders made another rocket strike in Ukraine. In doing so, they made a number of changes in the tactics of attack.
