“Out of 64 missiles and drones, 44 were shot down.”
An increased penetration rate.
Ukraine short of ammo, Russia using new tactics, or just aiming at less defended/lower priority targets?
Ukraine does not have overlapping SAM coverage.
Send more Patriot batteries, more NASAMs, and more IRIS-Ts.
F-16s, when they arrive, will help fill the gaps.
Release the Falcons!
Still a high interception rate (29 of 32) of the subsonic cruise missiles. The Kh-22, Iskander and S-300 are beyond the capabilities of the air defense systems where they are targeted.

Will Shoigu’s resignation take place in the spring? Those surrounded by General Teplinsky gave a forecast
General Mikhail Teplinsky and the military personnel close to him will not react in any way to Sergei Shoigu’s accusations that Mikhail Yuryevich allegedly wants to organize a coup and “send tanks to Moscow.” One of the reasons is that the Minister of Defense may be dismissed in the spring.
“It’s no secret that Vladimir Vladimirovich expects the capture of Avdiivka in early March. It is also clear that the current assaults on the city, often directly commanded by Shoigu and Gerasimov, will lead nowhere.
“The maximum is that we will take part of the city at a high price. I think that after this, both Shoigu and Gerasimov may well lose their posts,” an officer close to Teplinsky told us.
In response to our remark that Mikhail Yuryevich cannot liquidate the Ukrainian bridgehead on the left bank of the Dnieper in the Kherson region, he replied:
“This is a completely different situation. General Teplinsky takes care of people. We have 20 casualties per day, maximum 40 people. There were days near Avdeevka when 300 or more boys died. And we will knock out the enemy from the left bank. Everything has its time”.
He believes that it would be nice if, after success in the Kherson region, Teplinsky was entrusted with commanding the assault on Avdeevka. “Then the city would be ours. And fewer boys would have died,” the officer added.
