Not long ago, the UK Ministry of Defense informed that the terrorist state managed to carry out a “deep” modification of the Kh-101 air-launched missiles.

About the fact that the above ” “improvement” will not affect the regularity of destruction of these types of missiles by the forces and means of the Ukrainian air defense, writes NBN, referring to the explanation voiced by the speaker of the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Major Ilya Yevlash, in a telethon broadcast on the TSN YouTube channel.
According to Evlash, the process of shooting down the X-101 will not differ in any way, since, apparently, the matter only concerns the addition of an additional warhead, due to the reduction of the fuel compartment.
In addition, the Russian occupation forces can do without increasing the flight range of the Kh-101 missiles—invaders often use such projectiles from a significantly shorter distance, without using the advantages of strategic aviation.
Also, this enlarged warhead of these missiles is actually designed to destroy unprotected objects.
A representative of the Air Force summarized:
When they attack cities, we understand that it is aimed at a large number of casualties. This will cause more damage due to the small metal elements [from the cassette component].
Earlier we wrote about how Yevlash talked about how the appearance of the F-16 in the Ukrainian Armed Forces will affect on the actions of the occupiers.
