The US lifted speed restrictions on Starshield and resumed the transfer of intelligence data. This will partially help counter the Russian ballistic threat, but Ukraine’s greatest need remains missiles for Patriot systems, PAC-3. In a situation where US missiles are insufficient, our country has three options: request PAC-3 from other partner countries, strike launcher units on Russian territory with domestically produced ballistic missiles, or attack the most vulnerable targets of the aggressor country.
One such target is the residence of the Kremlin dictator Vladimir Putin at Valdai. Recently, an additional 16 air-defense towers were installed there. Paradoxically, this does not actually strengthen the defense but rather weakens it, because a large number of air-defense systems can interfere with each other’s operation during an attack. In that case, theoretically even a drone could successfully reach the target.
This view was expressed in an exclusive interview with OBOZ.UA by Russian–Ukrainian war veteran, Reserve Major of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Oleksiy Hetman.
