The expert explained why it became more difficult for air defense to shoot down 'Shaheds'.


The Russian military started using a new tactic of programming Iranian kamikaze drones for attacks on Ukrainian cities. This has become a more complicated task for air defense, as the drones execute individual flight programs, change altitudes, directions, and courses. They are also capable of performing circular maneuvers and selecting alternative targets. This allows them to evade protection by electronic warfare means,” military expert Sergey Beskrestnov noted.
The drones constantly change altitudes, directions, and courses. They are capable of performing circular maneuvers and selecting alternative targets if the main one is protected by electronic warfare means
This new tactic complicates attack routes. The drones can enter Ukrainian airspace at low altitudes, evading detection, and after several days, perform flights at high altitudes, where they cannot be destroyed by mobile ground units. However, Ukrainian air defense forces are actively developing measures to counter new enemy tactics, which continually improve their aerial warfare methods.
