Military expert Serhiy «Flash» Beskrestnov commented on the words of Roman Kostenko, Secretary of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on National Security, who stated that the Defense Forces should shoot down Russian drones near the border and prevent them from entering Ukrainian cities.
«This can be done, and Mykhailo [Fedorov], who reported to us as a committee, also hopes for this, he is right. Look, my point of view is that we should not allow the „shaheeds“ to get lost over Kyiv, over Odessa, over Kherson, over other cities. They should all get lost when crossing the Ukrainian border, a kilometer, two, even 10. Well, definitely not fly to or into Kyiv,» Kostenko said on Radio NV .
According to him, it is necessary to invent the cheapest and most effective weapon to destroy the «shaheeds» so that the Russians realize that hundreds of their drones for $60-100,000 will be shot down by Ukrainian interceptors for $2,000.
Kostenko noted that Kherson could become one of the cities where AI interceptors will be introduced that will destroy Russian strike drones near the front line.
«Since the Shahed do not come to us from space, but through the borders, it is logical and correct to build echelons along the borders, preventing the Shahed from flying deep into the territory,» commented Serhiy «Flash» Kostenko’s words.
In his opinion, this requires:
«Will this be a victory? No. As soon as we do this, Russia will immediately switch to jet UAVs of the Geran-5 format,» says «Flash».
According to him, Ukrainian manufacturers now need to create solutions against «shaheeds» with speeds of over 500 km/h.
