Kyiv Independent·US · UA · RU·2 days ago
Reserve Ukrainian colonel Sergey Grabsky estimates annual Patriot missile production at 650 units, which would sustain Ukraine's current usage for only three to four months. The claim highlights a potential supply-demand gap in air defense, though production figures and consumption rates are unverified. This matters as it signals possible constraints on Ukraine's ability to sustain air defense against Russian strikes.
