here is this limit of 500 km, but even at the time when we did not even have the opportunity to access western technologies in sufficient quantity and volume, options for increasing this distance were already being considered in the future, that is , more than 500 km, so i say the minimum, it can be 700 and 800, even a thousand, well , if we say something else, this is also information about such a drone, the polyanytsia missile, which also appeared in... we have what can be said about it, how much it can be there how far can it be widely applied? and so the thing is, there is almost no information, except that we only know about this sentence, that it has a turbojet engine, that is, its speed is much higher than the speed of the average kamikaze drone used by the defense forces of ukraine on the territory of the russian federation, and... now we already see that our drones, they

can cover distances of 1000 km, one and a half, two, even 2.5, i don't think that the palyanitsa, it can cover 2,500 km, because after all, there are completely different indicators, fuel consumption, it's spent a lot faster because it's a turbojet engine, but on the other hand, they cover it much faster, and that, shall we say, shortens the about... the amount of time the russians have to react to this threat, for example, if we're talking about airfields, then the same morozovsk airfield, pilots have been constantly on duty there recently, they were on duty, and when our drones took off in the direction of drones in the direction of morozivtsk, when they received the first information that drones were being detected, a drone raid, they raised their planes, i.e. there was an alarm, the pilots on duty, who were on duty, took off. they raised

sut-34 aviation and re-based it in the brain, and there were not always enough pilots, and those planes that remained in morozovsk were directly flown by our drones, but they tried to minimize losses among their combat planes in this way, and in in the case of polyanytsia, they will have much less time to react to these... threats and it will reach morozovskaya much faster and strike the appropriate blows this object, and this applies not only to airfields, it applies to almost all those targets in which we are interested in destroying, by the way, even oil depots, a very interesting point, because they are now trying to protect their tanks with oil products, with oil products, with a net, they cover them with nets and thus try to protect... from those

average drones that we use to hit these objects, but if it 's a high-speed target like a log cabin with a turbojet engine, then this net, well it won't help at all, well , the russians spread such information, well, well, and it is already in such western sources that it seems as if they started rebasing the aviation even in view of possible damage. armed with anti-aircraft guns that have not yet been given the opportunity to fire on russian territory, it’s as if the russians are rebasing their aviation information to more distant airfields, and they say that’s why the use of anti-aircraft guns does not make sense and the use of other weapons does not make sense, because they have already discovered all this, so i i understand that when it concerns, for example, the same one glades, then this is all rebasing, it somehow has no meaning either. in

principle, no, it does not exist, but it also makes it difficult for them to use the same tactically, the same tactical aircraft, because the distance is greater, it needs more fuel, it uses up more resources, less payload can take a plane of the same bombs to reach to the very location where these bombs will be dropped. and so on and so on, but the fact that now there is such a refusal, they say, why do you already hit the territory of the russian federation with attacks, they are rebasing their aviation in other directions, well, i do not agree with this, if only because, and we are not only attacking airfields, there are warehouses with ammunition, there are command posts, control points , headquarters, after all, military units, warehouses with equipment, where just the attack...

they would show themselves very, very effectively, and the kamikaze drone, well, when there is a cluster of equipment, for example, there are 50 units, 70 units. technicians, well, somehow they hit with one drone, hitting some motor vehicle there or even bbm, well, it is damaged, okay, but when the atakams cluster combat unit is scattered over such a large number of equipment, dozens of units are simultaneously damaged and even dozens of units of this equipment are destroyed, so the refusal, well, to put it mildly, it is weak, so unprofessional, let’s call it yes, uh well, well, let's talk about the main story, probably the one that is being discussed now, all this capture of novogorodivka is very fast, well, almost in three days, we hoped that it would be longer, and here,

let's start with why novogorodivka in fact, it is so important, why is this news so irritating, well, it was not over in three days. capture, the first assaults on the southeastern outskirts of novogorodivka began on august 21, and now the russians are actually at the railway junction, that is, they do not yet control the mine area, and they do not control the novogorodivsk tarikony, but they almost approached them, that is they control about 95% of the city itself, and that's about it. such an unpleasant, unpleasant surprise, because grodivka and novogrodivka, they could enter the general line of defense. grodovka due to the fact that it is located on

the zhurafka river, which is a natural barrier, and in the event of the destruction of all bridges and the withdrawal of our troops to the very right bank. crane, and this would allow holding this line of defense, well, for example, how the canal is held now in the temporary yar, or the right bank of the canal, how the defense is held, and below are already reservoirs and cascades of reservoirs, lakes, reservoirs, and this also hindered the russian occupiers to effectively carry out offensive actions, and all these are natural persuasions, they close directly to novogrodivka, in which there are already artificial obstacles, this is the railway, this is the railway junction, and this is directly the mines and these are artificial heights, these are terekons, and one of the most of them has the highest height in this location, almost 90 m, and

therefore all this would create a barrier that would slow down, and possibly even stop, the onslaught of the russians. but this did not happen, i am really surprised that novogrodivka was so quickly captured by the russian invaders, although it was in the turetsko-pokrovsky direction that i already i am not surprised at all, because ocheretyne also had the opportunity to hold its defense for several months, but it was captured in a few days, in the area of ​​turetska, the eastern borders, the eastern lines of defense between horlivka and turetska, directly in the area of ​​shuma, they were... formed like this, in order to keep the offensive actions from the enemy for a long time, they could also hold out for several months, but were captured in a few days to a depth of 2.5 km along a front of 5.5 km, so the turkish-pokrov direction is something, well, i don’t know, very strange with

issues of the introduction of military operations, but here the question is not so much about the military servicemen of the rank-and-file. a little to the other personnel, because the guys there, er, it's true, they hold, er, get the most of each position, but there are nuances already with management, management, ah, the very conduct of hostilities. well, the fact is that with regard to all the points you mentioned, and ocheretyn, and noises, and novogrodivka, well, one could say, these are unorganized positions on which it is impossible to fight, but eh... when we talk about these points, we say, on sorry, about the arranged positions, that is , the arranged positions were left, and here the question arises, after all, why, why is this happening, at least there are some, well at least some versions, what should have happened, no, well, that is known,

for example, any option when to raise, the same turk, turkish agglomeration, simultaneous rotation of two combatants. experienced brigades, here is the answer, who is doing it at the same time, and here is the failure of the defense right near turetsk, the russian occupiers are moving very quickly, in the limits of the agglomeration itself, the same situation was near ocheretyn, before things, immediate rotation, immediate rotation of a combat-ready unit, and the russians took advantage of this, well, you already know, some kind of walking on a rake, because we hear about such delights during rotation, well, since the 22nd year, it’s just some kind of recurring such a... story, and the second story that repeats itself is the movement of the russians along the railway,

when for some reason they move there and for some reason every time it is some kind of news literally that they will move there and will definitely pass there, and somehow no one always, this is a classic soviet offensive, this is a soviet classic offensive, i.e. anyone who has studied or encountered precisely the soviet strategy, tactics of conduct, tactics of warfare, it... is all tied precisely to the railway, the entire movement of russian troops, it completely coincides with the soviet union, that is, it is a movement along the railway, this is explained by many factors, by the way, it is not ridiculous, and it is not only logistics, as you can imagine that it is logistics, it is also related to the soils, where the railway is laid, there are more or less stable soils, and in... in this regard , the promotion there for the mechanized component it is more, let's say, comfortable, that

's why railways were always used in soviet tactics as the main directions of road and railway promotion, well, as you can assume, well, who should be responsible, who should provide after all that every time... it was not news that the iron would move, well, along the railway, to somehow be prepared for this fact, and the second, well, in fact, so as not to lose the prepared positions, well, who was responsible for this , at what level should this responsibility be? well, it's you you talk about the level of responsibility, but it is also at my level to accuse someone, there are competent bodies for this, which conduct the appropriate investigation and do. relevant conclusions, but regarding ocheretino and turetsk, well

, it is known, this person is no longer in his position, he was dismissed from his position, but nevertheless he must also be responsible for these failed decisions that were made. further regarding novogrodivka, well, here again, each case requires a separate investigation, because we are now saying no about, well, not really about... any jokes, this is serious, there, now you have to understand that we are in the stage of a defensive type strategy, as the goal is to exhaust the enemy, how can you exhaust the enemy, you can exhaust the enemy by transforming every meter of our territory to hell for them, so that they lose much more resources than we do, every settlement, every village has to rebuild... for them to hell, and in fact partly, that's how it is, the ravine of time has turned into hell for them,

a robotic ledge turned into them for them to hell, the northern direction, this is hell for them, again, the serybyan forestry, the kupin estuary axis, they have many such locations where they lose a huge amount of resources and cannot achieve any success, in turn, the turkish protectorate . the direction is dissonant, in fact it is dissonant, there are some locations where the meat grinder is really full for the russians, well, for example, grodivka, it has really turned into a meat grinder, a lift, a meat grinder for them, now they are trying to get to seledov, they are storming seledov, but it turned into a meat grinder for them, and novogrodivka yes, it was difficult for them to pass, but novogrodivka for them did not turn into that... into the hell that it could become, just like in ocheretno, and karlivka, karlivka

near the karliv reservoir, has turned into this hell, they can’t do anything about it now, they are constantly storming karlivka, but we can see that their result is zero, they are trying to bypass it now by moving from novogrodivka to the south, and there are many dissonances right here it is still necessary to understand, to come to terms with who is to blame for these dissonances that arise, because somewhere it is a really powerful defense, and somewhere, well, to put it mildly, something very strange is happening, well, which ones? what are the prospects for the defense of pokrovsk after the loss of novohorodivka? in my opinion, now the main goal of the russians is to create a southern flank, after they entered novogrodov, because if they continue their movement directly in the direction of pokrovsk, then they have a problem

of a southern and northern flank, well, the northern the flank is more or less tied there. ocheretna , the same route 05-11 in the recovery, they are not so much taken for it, especially considering the turkish agglomeration, where the fighting will begin now, but the southern flank, especially considering not only seledov, but also taking into account girnyk, izmayvka, kurakhivka, zorin, that is, they are concerned that there may be a breakthrough through the karoliv reservoir and to the north along the vovcha river and... then there is a serious potential for the russians to be surrounded, so they will be engaged now in the formation of the southern flank, and this it will take some time, i.e. the main offensive on pokrovsky itself, it can be postponed, well, somewhere around the end of september, until the beginning of october, although

we have encountered unpredictability and neglect of human resources on the part of russian commanders more than once, because now they are not regrouping at all, they constantly... create conditions for offensive actions, they have a constant intensity of combat operations in one direction or another, so it is quite possible that they will try to immediately continue moving in the direction of pokrov, although again, without the formation of the southern flank , they will not dare to start a full-fledged offensive and storm pokrovsky, well, let's hope that they will not be able to move quickly after that, but you see, the hopes are not very good. thanks to oleksandr kovalenko, military and political columnist. the informational resistance of the group was with us, well, we have to go on a break now and we will come back with another guest after this again. there are 10% discounts on korvalt until independence day in travel bam and thrift pharmacies. read in the august issue of ukraine magazine. like maidan

airwaves, good day, eh, and probably, well, since you are also in the pokrovsky direction , we just talked about him, tell me what is happening there now, what is the situation, what is the situation, because we are only hearing about the fact that, well... in fact, there are a lot of assaults, what, what kind of assaults, what are they assaulting? eh, well, actually speaking, the situation is not changing, for several weeks, if not more, the assaults are going on mainly infantry, er, the enemy has not used massed equipment for a long time, because we are still in the spring, it was in april, may, er, when they went in columns, it was... there were tank columns, there were armored vehicles, we very actively destroyed them and artillery, and fired fpv with drones, they changed their tactics and switched to the tactics of small infantry groups,

that is, combat reconnaissance, two-three-four people, two-three-four monsters go and try to capture, well, recon first and then capture our positions already in larger groups, now we see that the enemy is on the prowl already the groups are like that, somewhere like one or two detachments, 10 men, 20 men are going, well, to capture one of our positions or even to this landing, that is, well, as far as i understand, from what i know, they have reinforcements of the infantry components goes, not weakening, but strengthening. that is, it can even be said that they charge some additional people to you there in general, right? well, it turns out that it is, as far as i understand it. and tell me, well, here, when, when they

try to do this, now there is, it is possible to somehow distribute it in such a way that it is more at night, there, more in the afternoon, there, that is, when, whether, whether it already depends somehow on the weather, on the hour, the day, that's how it now depends on. depends on a lot of factors and of course they try to do it more often, well, basically, according to my observations , there have been no changes in this regard for a long time. their calculations and their teams, well, at the same time they come forward to storm our positions somewhere early in the morning, this is often the case,

well, how does it affect our defense, that is , when it comes to such small infantry groups, what can be used then, drones, some other ammunition, artillery, that is, what’s better then... with that actually, let’s do it council, how to counter this? mainly, of course, this is a drone component, from our side, this is fpv, it is drops from - other drones, from mavics, we have actually been using this tactic for a long time, and against small infantry groups as well, because they move quickly, and for now we will assume , eh... a mortar will be fired at them there or artillery, or it could be a grenade launcher , let's say agaes, whatever, well, it's just

that they go faster, and drones are the most effective against them, to use drones in particular, and do they have any way of countering drones, what can they do against them. what exactly do our drone operators have to deal with? of course , they have a variety of countermeasures against drones, radio electronic warfare means, they also have a trench reb, they also have special infantry, an infantry version of this reb, it fits in backpacks, in principle, it’s not very good large devices eh, not every, absolutely not every group of them has such devices with them, but, well, of course, it is more difficult for our pilots to work when there is a ... fighter with

such a system in the group, and what does she do, she is lonely, well, that is, it falls, a drone or what is it, what is it like, how does it solve this problem? yeah , it's, well, mostly it's a suppression of the video signal, but less often it's a suppression of the control signal as well, but mostly the video signal, and it's ineffective for them because on... our pilots are quite highly skilled, they can actually on inertia at the last stage, when they go to the target, they chase the drone, the pilot who controls the drone, the drone is already going to the target by inertia, and as they once said, i follow the instruments, the picture at this stage is not necessary, so we fight , we hit the targets, regardless of the fact that they have the... of course, there are

means of countering drones and russia has always been known in principle for its powerful means of radio-electronic warfare, but the situation on our side is leveling off, i would say, recently, the situation is leveling off, well, so are we now we also collect for rap, you see, we also have such a collection for both drones and rap, so we are also trying to help in this regard. what can we do, but tell me in general, how do you assess the ratio of our such drones to theirs, that is, it is still parity or not parity now, but from your side, how is it? again, i can only say from my experience from the area where i am, it is close to parity, so clearly,

well, that's it. i would say yes, it means that it has become a little more difficult for us than it was before, because there was no such parity before, right? yes yes clear. tell me, i have a little question for you now, well, since you are in this direction, i think that somehow, well, probably, you are also somehow discussing this among yourselves, what do you think allowed... the russians to break through near novogrodovka so quickly, and well, not so quickly as expected, still thought that they would stay there longer, do you have any versions of your own regarding this, any explanation of your own? i have versions, but i don't think it's worth expressing them live now, let's say

yes, well, he will say, then yes, could we... some objective ones, no, not subjective ones, which are connected with certain moments, but objective ones, well, they use them there a lot something, and it was really difficult, because there were still, as far as i understand, equipped positions, it is easier to fight in equipped positions than in some other places where from the very beginning it was , well, not very equipped, objective there were also reasons, and... i will say, there was even, and still remains, probably, let's say this, not hope, but calculation on what will still happen, the enemy forces will be distracted to put out the fire at home, and they will be distracted, including from the pokrov direction, where the russians

are advancing. here, well, for now, unfortunately, we are not observing a mass, so to speak, rebasing and transfer of units from the direction to the kursk oblast, bilhorodsk, and so on. well, unfortunately, yes, so far we are talking about the fact that there are simply too many of them. ok, unfortunately, our time has run out, we would like to talk more. thank you very much you joined us, it was a fighter. an aerial scout of the second battalion of the 68th separate hunting brigade from the pokrovsky direction, well , we will meet with you in a week, and you stay with the espresso tv channel. greetings, we are asking for your help in searching

for children from... kly to the temporarily occupied territories.
