In general, according to Yuriy Ihnat, during the large-scale war with Russian troops, the Russian army has already lost more than 1, 500 unmanned aerial vehicles of the operational-tactical level of the Orlan-10 type, not counting quadcopters and tactical-level UAVs.
The spokesman of the Air Force Command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine emphasized that the Russian aircraft group, which attacks Ukraine from several dozen airfields, has increased in quantity, but the quality has become much worse.
“Unfortunately, they still have the potential to carry out attacks from the air, and Ukrainian military pilots do everything possible, and sometimes even the impossible, to oppose the Russian army, trying to shoot down its missiles and UAVs,” concluded Yuriy Ihnat.
