And while that number dropped to around 2,500 in December, it rose to around 4,000 in January and at least 1,750 by February.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-glimpses-of-hope\">Glimpses of hope<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Few defenses or civilian buildings can withstand a direct hit from the bomb. At present, it is their lack of precision that offers the best hope for the Ukrainians targeted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Radars can detect incoming bombs, but intercepting them was considered technologically and financially unfeasible, especially given the lack of modern equipment in Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, Ukrainian soldiers managed to shoot down a guided aerial bomb in Zaporizhia, Air Force\u2019s representative Yuriy Ignat confirmed for the first time to Ukraine\u2019s RBC-Ukraine, an online media, on Friday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While Ignat has not revealed any details about the equipment used, he noted that this has not been the first time a bomb has been intercepted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ukraine has strengthened its ability to counter and destroy guided bombs against Russia by using modern hardware and software equipment and electronic warfare, Ukrainian army commander Oleksandr Syrskyi wrote on Saturday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The method developed in Ukraine, has proved \u201ceffective\u201d and will be used more often, \u201cSoniashnyk,\u201d a Telegram channel with links to the country\u2019s Air Force, claimed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The interception of such a bomb is a unique occurrence on a global scale, according to Kovalenko. If this experience can be scaled up efficiently and cheaply, this could partially solve the problem of bombs, the expert noted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-destroying-russian-planes-remains-crucial-for-ukraine\">Destroying Russian planes remains crucial for Ukraine<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/pre.efe.com\/en\/latest-news\/2025-02-12\/kursk-swap\/\">However, destroying Russia\u2019s planes that launch the bombs, either in the sky or on their bases, remains the most effective way of reducing the threat<\/a>, the expert said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 2024, Ukraine already used several Patriot air-defense launchers to intercept several Su-34 and Su-35 planes in a series of surprise attacks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, it no longer uses the few systems at its disposal so close to the frontline, where they become targets for Russian drones and missiles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Meanwhile, the F-16 fighter jets at Ukraine\u2019s disposal have not received the weapons needed to shoot down Russia\u2019s bombardiers from a safe distance, according to experts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Russia has also moved its aircraft away from bases within range of modern missiles such as ATACMS, Kovalenko noted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ukraine regularly attacks Russian air bases with drones and works on their improvement. However, Russian pilots are constantly on alert, which gives them enough time to fly the planes away from danger after the drones are detected, the expert explained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-decisive-solution-out-of-reach\">A decisive solution out of reach <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to Kovalenko, Ukraine could reach some airfields where Su-34\/35 planes are based with ATACMS missiles by moving their launchers closer to the frontline, but this would be extremely risky.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It has used drones to damage storages of bombs and aviation fuel, as well as refineries, yet the impact has been limited so far.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What could help is ballistic missiles, which carry more explosives than drones and travel much faster, according to Kovalenko. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, Ukraine does not receive such missiles from its allies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is also unclear when it will be able to deploy its own ballistic missiles, currently under development, making the interception of a bomb in Zaporizhia all the more important.
