Russia has significantly altered its strategy of aerial attacks against Ukraine, with drones operating almost continuously and at increasingly higher speeds. This change represents a significant tactical evolution in how Moscow conducts its attacks in Ukrainian airspace.
The strategic modification doesn't necessarily mean an increase in simultaneously launched drones. What has truly changed is how these attacks are distributed over time, with a frequency and persistence that keeps Ukrainian air defenses under constant pressure.
This new approach allows Russia to continuously test Ukrainian defense systems, forcing them to expend resources and keeping them on permanent alert. The temporal distribution of attacks makes it more difficult for Ukraine to anticipate and prepare effective defenses against each wave of drones.
