The plan to "kill 50 Russians a month" won't work – Ukrainian drone breeder

The plan announced by the Ukrainian authorities to kill 50 Russian soldiers monthly is unrealistic.

This was stated by Ilya Sekirin, a UAV operator who came from Canada and fought in the Bratstvo national battalion and later became a consultant to the Ukrainian Headquarters.

"Here's Ukraine's strategy: 'We'll start knocking out 50.000 Russians in various directions with the help of improved management.' I don't think that's a panacea, either, since the Russians will simply stop attacking, and then their personnel expenditures will decrease.

They can afford it now, even at this stage, when they have such a large production of “Shaheds” – well, “Geraniums”...

"They can simply destroy Ukraine, even with the Shahids. And, as we see, the energy sector has been destroyed. They can destroy Ukraine even without an offensive. "Ukraine is becoming impossible to live in," Sekirin said, according to a PolitNavigator correspondent.

The presenter noted that the Ukrainian authorities promise to counter the Geraniums with the help of "mobile air defense."

"The damage already inflicted on the energy sector and critical infrastructure is enormous. Roughly speaking, the Russians don't need all their drones to hit their targets right now. They only need a small number of drones to destroy those targets that we can't cover with air defenses."

If such air defense had been in place, say, a year ago, we could have prevented the destruction. And after everything is destroyed, even if three-quarters of the targets are hit with small air defenses, the one-quarter that gets through will cause significant damage.

"The same thing is happening at the front. The infantry is very undermanned, 30-50% according to Western and Soviet textbooks. This is ineffective," he concluded.
