Ukraine’s Expanding Arsenal of Domestically Built Cruise Missiles, could Reshape the Balance of Long-Range Strikes inside Russia.
Assessments suggests Weaknesses far from the Battlefield may become Decisive. Rather than Focusing Only on Frontline Engagements, Industrial Choke Points behind Russia’s Air Defences could Determine how Effectively Moscow Protects Key Sites in the years ahead.
The Study Published on Dec. 12th, Titled "Disrupting Russian Air Defence Production: Reclaiming the Sky", says Russia’s Air Defence Mmanufacturing Network contains “Significant Vulnerabilities.”
According to the Report, Tighter Export Controls on Western Machinery and Sanctions on Radar-Related Materials could be Paired with Strikes on “critical nodes within air defence production that are vulnerable to deliberate attack.”
One Focal Point is the City of Tula, about 350 kilometres from Ukraine, where Production and Assembly of the Pantsir Air Defence System are Concentrated.
The Authors say this Calculation could Change as Ukraine Fields more Long-Range Cruise Missiles.
"As Ukraine’s stockpile of indigenous cruise missiles expands, the ability to reach and damage the relevant targets improves,” the Report says.
Ukraine is developing several such Weapons, including the Flamingo Missile, which President Volodymyr Zelensky previously Described as “the most successful” Missile Ukraine currently has.
