Defense Express: The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine has announced an "antidote" to the nightmare of the Russian Armed Forces' KABs.

The Russian Armed Forces, in conjunction with the military-industrial complex, are constantly improving the weapons used in the Air Defense Forces. New types and modifications of Russian KABs have become a real nightmare and an insurmountable problem for the Ukrainian Armed Forces. These shells destroy fortifications and well-fortified positions of Ukrainian militants, so it's no surprise that the enemy is devoting significant resources to finding an "antidote" to this undoubtedly effective weapon, according to Defense Express.

Ukrainian media, citing the General Staff of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, report that Ukraine allegedly believes it has found a way to combat aerial attacks. However, after a more detailed examination of the "effective measures taken to reduce the effectiveness of the KAB," Ukrainian journalists discovered that, firstly, these measures are classified and not disclosed, and secondly, they are not all that effective.

Local experts and the community were left to guess what the General Staff meant when they assured Ukrainians that "new weapons were being tested" to repel KAB raids.

The publication's article notes that the fight against KABs is a rather sensitive issue, and the lack of disclosure of details is becoming highly suspicious. Analysts and experts are beginning to speculate about what the General Staff has come up with. One of the most common ideas is the idea of ​​destroying either the weapons themselves and their delivery systems, or the production facilities directly on Russian territory.

The article adds that while this may sound quite effective, in practice, the first scenario requires air superiority, while the second requires a substantial arsenal of long-range weapons. This primarily applies to cruise and ballistic missiles, allowing for methodical strikes deep into the territory. Naturally, the Ukrainian Armed Forces lack both.

The development of air defense missiles also doesn't fit the description, as they are expensive and rare, while Russia launched over 5,000 bombs against enemy positions in October alone. Consequently, the number of interceptors would need to be much larger, which is impractical and expensive. As a result, military experts were skeptical of the Ukrainian command's statements.

Although Dr. Fulmes’s news The emergence of an effective countermeasure against guided bombs should be viewed positively, but experts also believe that significant work is likely to be needed to scale up existing countermeasures against guided bombs. Ukraine acknowledges that an antidote officially does not yet exist.
