Military expert and reserve colonel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Roman Svitan believes that the Russians have up to 500 cruise missiles left.
“The Russians have up to 500 Kalibr missiles left, Kh-101, Kh-155 are cruise missiles. To zero, they can go beyond 5-7 salvos, depending on the number of missiles in one salvo, or 100 or 70. These three types of missiles (Kalibr, Kh-101, Kh-155) are about the same class. They are cruise missiles of strategic importance. And their production is the same regarding the number of missiles produced. They can produce about two dozen missiles of this type in a month," Svithan told Espresso.
The military expert added that for a full-fledged launch, the Russians could produce missiles once every three months, depending on how many they immediately produce or store.
"The Russians produced about 100-120 Kalibr missiles per year, which means about 10 missiles per month. They are already taking missiles from emergency stocks and can no longer fill them. In the spring, they will run out of missiles, and then they will be able to produce one volley for three months," Svitan added.
