“We see a certain lull now, now they are no longer there. The last time they were used during this massive missile attack, which was literally last week, when there were still 96 missiles and a dozen Shahedov that flew from the territory of Belarus. There they were destroyed… Previously, they even launched 1-5 daily (“Shahedov” – ed.) and now there is no such application,” Ignat said.
He noted that they allegedly wanted to open a plant in Russia.
“We see information that they want to open a plant in Russia. Whether it will be a plant, whether it will be an imitation of the plant – we cannot yet speak, but everything can be, so we will react. Our reaction is to prepare, repel and whip down this technique. We see that the percentage of downing is already growing due to professionalism, understanding and new tactical approaches, how to do it, in what directions they can be expected. This is a lot of work that the overall air defense system of the state does. And what a number: we had about 330-340 – we will publish a certain number in the near future. More than 400 have already been launched, we know, and 330-340 have been destroyed,” Ignat said.
According to Ignat, the use of not only the Shahedov, but also the missiles has decreased.
“The use of not only Shahedov, but also missiles has decreased. We see that there is a massive strike, but there would be missiles – they would use more, there would be “Shahedi” – they would use more. The enemy comes out of the forces and means that he has. If Russia had established the production of cruise missiles faster, we would now, in the cold period, have larger blackouts. We see that the enemy does not give up its intentions to strike the territory of Ukraine, I mean our critical infrastructure. What are his plans, everyone knows and discusses it, it’s to persuade us to freeze a certain conflict, to a truce in order to “build muscle” and hit again, and hit harder. You can’t give such a chance to the enemy,” Ignat said.
Ignat also stressed that Russia has always neglected legal institutions, international rules of doing business, in particular in the defense-industrial corps.
“I think that their production works, that they still get certain spare parts, parts. They get in different ways: there is smuggling, there are third countries. Russia has always neglected legal institutions, international rules of doing business, in particular in the defense-industrial corps. Industrial espionage and theft for Russia is a typical rule, as for a gopnik country. Therefore, we understand that Russia will receive somewhere, but not in such volumes. And the question to our Western partners is that the sanctions that have already been announced to the occupier are respected and strictly controlled. Then they will not be able, both in the aviation industry, even civil aviation, and in the gas production, oil refining, oil industry, to take certain steps,” said Ignat.
He noted that the Russians cannot even pump gas through the pipe without a Canadian turbine.
“Therefore, we understand that sanctions will work when they are 100% complied with, and then everything will become clear,” Ignat said.
