In order to divert the attention of the enemy's air defense forces and means, the Russian army uses special unmanned aerial vehicles – "decoys", which consume ammunition from enemy anti-aircraft missile systems.
Ukrainian sources have published footage of Russian decoy drones to divert the air defense of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. In the footage, we see quite cheap, judging by the appearance, drones. Using such drones, our army forces the enemy to expend expensive ammunition of its air defense systems.
Currently, the Ukrainian armed forces are experiencing a significant shortage of ammunition for anti-aircraft missile systems. According to a number of Western media reports, the Ukrainian Armed Forces are running out of anti-missiles, with which the Ukrainian army could repel missile attacks by the Russian army.

Attempts by the leaders of the Kiev regime to obtain additional air defense systems from Western countries have not been successful at the moment.

European countries are unable to provide the Ukrainian army with the necessary number of air defense systems, since anti-aircraft missile systems and ammunition have already been minimized in the arsenals of European armies. This was previously stated by representatives of Poland, Germany and some other EU states.
