Wow. Honestly kinda surprised they were that vulnerable. Doesn't Russia have any sort of CWIS systems to defend their ground based nuclear bombers and advanced radar command and control aircraft? Seems kinda important, don't you think?
They were expecting big slow drones that would take hours flying from Ukraine. Instead they got many small ones that took 18 months to arrive but were invisible until the last minute. A surprise zerg rush, when they were expecting and preparing against ultralisks.
(My analogies are very weak today)
Zergling rush with overlord drops. π€
At like the 20 minute mark when all their bases are mined out and they can't rebuild
And are desperately fighting the zerglings with drones.
They seem to have gotten complacent because they can just move the planes if Ukraine sends long range drones.
Yes, it's a war of many firsts, especially about distance being a form of defence. Moskva was drowned like that too.
Modern day version of raiding Nazi airbases.
