In a recent interview, Ukraines Defence Intelligence Deputy Chief Maj. Gen. Vadym Skibitskyi said Russia is hugely exceeding missile production targets. https://www.rbc.ua/rus/news/rf-vikonue-plan-raketah-pauza-obstrilah-navryad-1786309469.htmlJuly figures: Iskander-M 65 (108% of 60 target); Kh-101 87 (140% of 72); Kalibr 29 (111% of 26, mostly to reserves/other fleets). First 7 months 2026: Zircon 33 (4.7/month); Oniks 60 (8.6/month). Production of Kinzhal and Kh-32 suspended due to poor cost2effect rate; focus shifted to Iskander-M. Russia aims for a record 11,000 Geran drones in August, prioritizing jet-powered Geran-4/5 (which made up +50% of a recent large attack). RM-48U (modified S-400 ballistic) plan: 40 in August. Kh-35 production exceeded by 200% so far this year.The reported Russian production rates far exceed combined NATO capacities for equivalent systems. Russia claims roughly 60-65 Iskander ballistic missiles monthly, 87 Kh-101 cruise missiles in one month, and a target of long range 11,000 attack drones in August. NATO produces far fewer: US Tomahawks remain in the low hundreds yearly despite surge plans, JASSM around 700-1,100 annually, and PrSM targeting 400. European cruise missiles like Storm Shadow stay in the low hundreds total. Western one-way drones lag significantly. Russia prioritizes wartime volume, NATO emphasizes costlier precision systems. This creates a clear industrial asymmetry in mass long-range strike weapons.
In sum, it would mean that Russia produces 3400 long range expensive ballistic/cruise missiles a year. Absolutely insane. Plus hundreds of thousands of long range drones a year.
>>540608006>pretends Iran never happenedlool
well their missiles are not going to do much considering russians only target civilian infrastructure which usually has the opposite effect

>>540608507
do americans not get tired of having a lying president repeating the same lies over and over again no matter how often the lie is laid bare
>>540608006they need fiber-optic FPV drones. and millions of them.
no AD? ah well, they're useless anyway xD
>>540608849The early Pantsir-S struggled with small, slow drones due to outdated radar filters, a real flaw weaponized into black propaganda that tried to present Pantsirs as "useless". Modern variants have upgraded AESA radars and EO/IR trackers, making them lethal against UAVs. This Pantsir on your vid is surely old versionHere on vid you can see Pantsir shooting down like a dozen of Himars GMLRS.https://files.catbox.moe/s8zt6q.mp4Intercepting a full salvo of 12 GMLRS from HIMARS is a monumental technical feat. GMLRS is extremely hard to kill: its 22cm diameter gives a tiny radar cross-section. It flies at Mach 2.5+, covering 70km in 100 seconds - minimal reaction time. Its high-ballistic trajectory arcs to 20km then dives steeply, while INS/GPS enables unpredictable terminal maneuvers. A 12-round salvo is a saturation attack, overwhelming most systems. Tracking and destroying each simultaneously requires multi-target acquisition, ultra-fast interceptors, and real-time computation. This proves the Pantsir-SM has evolved into a genuine counter to modern rockets. It is a masterpiece and Russian systems are surely not worse than Western ones
>>540608849Russia significantly outpaced the West in air defense system production. Estimates show Russia adding 18 S-400 battalions yearly recently, with Putin claiming capacity three times the US and near the rest of the world combined. Pantsir output runs 12-36 systems annually. Missile production for S-400/S-350 more than doubled. By contrast, US Patriot battery production was limited to about 12 per year earlier, while PAC-3 interceptors reached only 600 annually in 2025. European systems like IRIS-T remain in low single digits yearly.

>>540609806which AD system is used here?
Trump blaming Ukraine instead of Israel lol what a joke. How many icy military supplies has he exhausted in the Iran war all for Israel
>>540610066Whose AD system was turned into a vapor here?
>>540610554Vid-rel, Iris-T radar hit by Geran
>>540608569LOL. Cope Nazi faggot. Biden gave you Hohol Nazis billions of dollars worth in weapons because he wanted Great Patrioitic war 2.0 and you got what you asked for. Donald Trump is a hero for standing up to you Fascists. Imagine if FDR gave Adolf Hitler 300 billion dollars worth in Panzer tanks and other weapons. That is the insanity we are dealing with

>>540613257Germany is currently unable to supply Ukraine with additional Patriot air defense systems. German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius said this in comments reported by DW, noting that Germany has already made a “disproportionately large contribution” by transferring more than one-third of its own Patriot systems to Ukraine. Therefore, further deliveries are currently impossible, as the Bundeswehr is itself waiting for replacement systems for those transferred to Ukraine and must maintain its ability to train personnel to operate and service Patriot air defense systems. Pistorius also acknowledged that the number of IRIS-T air defense systems supplied to Ukraine is insufficient, given the growing intensity of Russian attacks.https://militarnyi.com/en/news/pistorius-germany-has-no-remaining-capacity-to-provide-ukraine-with-additional-patriot-systems/
