The UKR SAM coverage does not overlap. There are flight paths available that could completely avoid the SAMs.

Nothing directly, but with mobile SAM systems, how could there be a known flight path to avoid them? I think you might be looking at old maps of S-300 systems?
Obviously, with mobile SAMs that is the challenge.
The first thing that I would do is draw a map of the flight paths of the missiles that made it through and see if there is a trend or possible corridors.
Then locate other targets near the flight paths that made it through and attack them on the next wave.
The next thing I would do is draw several maps of the shoot downs and see if there are trends that show flight paths that never make it through. Avoid those flight paths on future waves.
That is why I made the comment that RU must not be getting battle damage assessments (BDA). They don't seem to be making any adjustments based on success or failures.
Just my perception.
Probably not, but 85% of cruise missiles being shot down, which UKR consistently claims, is a really high number.
Great for UKR.
