BURN RATE: Russia’s Kalibr 3M/54 cruise missile is used to attack UKR cities. Earlier in the war, RU launched as many as 24 Kalibr missiles a day. With stocks now running out, UKR sources report that in OCT, Russia carried out only five Kalibr 3M/54 launches in the entire month.

Hopefully true.

UKR sources report that in OCT, Russia carried out only five Kalibr 3M/54 launches in the entire month.

With 85% shoot down rate, only one missile actually struck the target.

I find the land launch version to be interesting. Here's some pictures:

Disguised to look like shipping containers.

Cost of export version is listed at $6.5 million. So, in October the cost to attack one target was $32.5 million.

A very expensive way to wage a war.
