The first two months of the full-scale rocket attack were chaotic. Eventually, the situation changed. Russian troops are running out of high-precision weapons. This was stated by the representative of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, Vadym Skibitsky on the air of the project Radio Liberty "Crimea. Realia".

"According to our data, if we talk about high-precision weapons, about 60 percent of the stockpile has already been used. For some species, even more - 70%. There are relevant regulatory requirements for the threshold level that must be maintained in the army, and for the same" Iskanders "this threshold level has almost come," - said Vadym Skibitsky.

At the same time, Russia cannot replenish its reserves as quickly as the Soviet Union, added a representative of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine.

"They do not have such capacity and rapid production of high-precision weapons, especially economic sanctions, political sanctions imposed on Russia, do not allow now to actively, large-scale use of foreign-made components. They changed the tactics of using such weapons. If earlier two or four missiles were used on the object, now the object is clearly chosen, the target is eight to 12 missiles of different formats. To be ready to hit this target, either ballistic or surface-to-air or naval cruise missiles. We see changes, and we understand that the resource of high-precision weapons, high-precision ammunition in Russia at the border level, "- summed up the representative of the military intelligence of Ukraine.
