The Russian-Ukrainian battlefield is becoming a city attack war. The Russian army began to use the low-priced Witness 136 large cruise missile drone as the main force to attack Ukraine's deep target. Ukraine also announced that a large cruise missile drone with a range of 1,000 kilometers has been successfully developed. The warhead reached 75 kg, which was heavier than the 50 kg warhead of the Witness 136 large cruise missile.
Iranian Witness 136 large cruise missiles are not controlled by the operator and have no optoelectronic system. It is the preset target and route, and the cruise missile will fly to the target at a speed of 100-180 kilometers per hour. The entire cruise missile consists of low-priced civilian electronic components and small engines. Although
looks very simple, it is difficult to intercept, and the cost of using air defense missiles for interception is too high. Use anti-aircraft gun to intercept this small low-altitude slow target, how many anti-aircraft guns need to be deployed to complete the interception on the entire Ukrainian border for thousands of kilometers?
light weapons and ordinary anti-aircraft guns lack the modern fire control system , and their interception capabilities for such small low-altitude targets are relatively weak. Israel Iron Dome system is most suitable, but Israel will not export the Iron Dome system to Ukraine. Now, it is too expensive for Ukraine, and the rest is not effective.
However, the Ukrainian side was also inspired by the Witness 136 large cruise missile. Ukraine has relatively rich aviation engine research and development and production capabilities. Although it cannot meet the needs of modern fifth-generation fighter jets, there is still no problem in manufacturing drones and cruise missiles.
For example, in 2021, Ukraine is developing the large drone ACE ONE. This drone can carry 1 ton of bombs and is equipped with Motor Sichi's AL-322 turbofan engine. This is a small bypass ratio , medium thrust engine, and its afterburner version has a thrust of about 2.5 tons.
Turkey is also working with Ukraine to purchase products from the Ukrainian Ivchenko-Progressive Aero Engine Design Bureau equipped with Turkish drones. As for the various civil electronic components required, Ukraine can purchase large quantities from the international market.
, and Moscow is only more than 600 kilometers away from the Ukrainian border. Therefore, Ukraine has developed a heavy cruise missile target with a range of 1,000 kilometers, which are Russian deep-seated cities such as Moscow.
For this reason, Russia has made the worst plans and began to reopen underground bunkers and air raid shelters in major cities such as Moscow and St. Petersburg . It is required to use underground bunkers to build parking lots and all companies that set up warehouses in air raid shelters will be moved away. At the same time, Russia disclosed the location maps of the various air-raid shelters in Moscow and St. Petersburg.
At critical moments, citizens of Moscow and St. Petersburg can quickly hide into nearby air raid shelters and underground bunkers. Former British Prime Minister Churchill once said: "Russia is a mystery hidden in a mystery." And under the underground of Moscow City, the heart of Russia, is a world full of mistyness.
Legend is that in the underground of Moscow, there are many unknown secret buildings: ancient prisons, nuclear bunkers, dungeons, secret tunnels, air raid shelters...
There is the famous underground bunker No. 42 near the Taganka subway station, 23 kilometers away from the Kremlin html, which is a nuclear war bunker that penetrates 65 meters deep underground. This is a 7,000-square-meter underground bunker that allows thousands of people to hide in it for many days.
Of course, no matter it is Moscow or Kiev , a huge city like Kiev , can't be severely damaged by a weapon like a cruise missile. The real targets of large cruise missiles are energy systems, power systems, oil storage tanks, , ammunition databases, and non-solid fortification targets, etc.
The Russian-Ukrainian war is likely to enter a frontline and desperately repair fortifications, and the battle between shelling each other is stalemate. The rear desperately launched long-range rocket launchers, cruise missiles and missiles and to attack the city.
