Yevlash also stated that Russian missiles X-101 did not need to increase the range, as they are used at short distances for attacks on Ukraine. Instead, modernization is aimed at increasing harm to unprotected objects, including residential areas, in order to increase the number of casualties among civilians.

It can be a living force <. . . > will cause more harm at the expense of small metal elements," - said Yevlash. Earlier, the media reported that Russia has improved the X-101 missiles used on TU-95 strategic bombers, increasing the combat part. According to British intelligence, the X-101 was finalized with the addition of additional combat part, but this reduced the rocket flight range.
