In June the financial losses of the Russian army from Ukrainian attacks were almost five times higher than the Defense Forces' costs to hit targets. This economic efficiency of combat operations was calculated by the Mission Control analytics module, which is integrated into the DELTA troop management system.
According to a publication by the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, the new analytics tool was introduced six months ago. Currently it processes about 50 thousand missions and over 230 thousand reports from military units each week.
What is known about how the mechanism works?
The system automatically matches the cost of destroyed enemy resources with the expenses of the Ukrainian side. In particular, the defeat of one Russian servicemember costs on average 3032 dollars, while Russia spends about 65 thousand dollars to support them.
A strike on an enemy vehicle unit costs the Defense Forces 2674 dollars. At the same time, destroying an enemy infrastructure facility requires expenditures at the level of 1487 dollars.
How does battlefield analytics work?
The module records every operation, categorizing them by type:
reconnaissance;
strike;
logistics;
evacuation.
The program covers a wide range of targets, from telecommunications equipment costing hundreds of dollars to air defense systems worth hundreds of thousands.
After a task is completed, the military evaluates the result and the reasons for success or failure. At the same time information about own equipment losses is recorded, which helps command quickly adapt tactics and increase the accuracy of subsequent missions.
Mass drone attack and hit statistics
Against the backdrop of the high effectiveness of Ukrainian strikes, the enemy continues aerial terror. On the night of 17 August Russian forces attacked Ukrainian territory with 128 drones, however air defense forces shot down most of the drones.
Recall that we previously wrote that during the first 7 months of 2026, Ukraine confirmed the neutralization of over 260 thousand Russian drones. All these data were also verified in the DELTA combat system, which allows scaling the most effective technological solutions at the front.
In addition, as already reported on our site, Unmanned Systems Forces units alone eliminated about 5000 Russian servicemembers in just the first half of August. According to command estimates, this averages 333 occupiers hit per day.
