The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reported on «taking effective measures to reduce the effectiveness of Russian guided aerial bombs,» noting that from September to November, anti-aircraft missile troops of the Armed Forces of Ukraine destroyed up to 100 enemy aerial bombs.
In addition, following the last monthly meeting on the development of the capabilities of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the General Staff announced that new weapons are being tested against the KABs.
However, more detailed information about its characteristics and type is not yet available.
In this context, the specialized publication Defence Express suggests that we are most likely talking about missile weapons.
«A huge question remains, how the new decision addresses the problem of the cost of shooting down KABs — because, for example, in October of this year, which was a record for KABs, the Russians launched more than 5,300 glide bombs, so we are talking about thousands of missiles to counter this threat, which in any case will be more expensive than the means of destruction,» the publication writes.
As previously reported by dev.ua, a French startup may deploy a «wall of drones» in Ukraine, which will protect against «shaheeds» and «KABs.»
According to the founder of the company Atreyd, the system is a «flying minefield of drones» and should become the last line of defense.
Meanwhile, KB Medoid tested a new Ukrainian KAB with a range of 60 km.
