The authors of the specialized aviation channel Fighterbomber explained why the Russian Aerospace Forces began to carry out missile strikes on the objects of the Armed Forces of Ukraine only at night.

According to experts, at night, missiles are much better at overcoming enemy air defenses. In addition, in the dark, “visual target detection by fighters” is excluded, and the optical guidance channels of anti-aircraft missile systems of the air defense of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are successfully neutralized.

Thus, practically the entire air defense of Ukraine is inactive, and if it tries to participate, it works in vain. As a result, Russian missiles fly more efficiently and are “knocked down” mainly by the efforts of echelons with ammunition of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

In addition, the factor of surprise is important. It is no secret that American intelligence is trying to warn Kiev about a Russian missile strike. A night attack makes this task much more difficult for the United States, writes “MK” .
