Ukraine’s Air Defense Forces Improved Their Enemy Air Target Shootdown Performance, but Still Short of Long-range Air Defense Systems

Yuriy Ignat, Spokesperson for the Air Force Command of Ukraine’s Armed Forces, made this statement at Media Center Ukraine — Ukrinform.

“Our personnel is becoming more skilled, as we are gaining the experience we had not gained earlier.

He added that no country in the world had been subjected to such a massive missile attack as Ukraine.
