Deputy Head of the Main Operational Directorate of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Alexei Gromov said that the Air Force and Air Defense of Ukraine shot down 60% of the Iranian production of Shahed-136, who launched the Russian military into the country.
The representative of the General Staff also said that over the past week, the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces were destroyed by 24 of 46 Shahids (which the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation assigned the name “Gerani-2”) launched to attack the objects of military and civil infrastructure in Ukraine.
The day earlier (October 5), the speaker of the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Yuri Ignat called the Iranian Dron-Kamikadze “complex goal”. “The goal is complicated, it is not so large: the wingspan is 2.5 meters, the mass is 200 kilograms, the warhead is 40 kg. This is actually as an artillery shell that flies at a speed of 120 kilometers per hour, and when entering the target, it lowers with greater speed, ”the Ukrainian Pravda website quotes the representative of the Ukrainian Pravda.
