Ihnat says over 1,500 Russian Orlan-10 UAVs destroyed by Ukrainian army

The Ukrainian Defence Forces have already destroyed more than 1,500 Russian operational and tactical UAVs of the Orlan-10 type, the spokesman for the Air Force Command, Yuriy Ihnat, has said on the air of the news telethon.

These estimates do not include downed Russian tactical-level quadcopters and UAVs.

Assessing the current capabilities of the Russian Air Force, he pointed out that its group of aircraft has increased in number, but has become much worse in quality.

"Unfortunately, they still have the potential to carry out air attacks, and our military pilots are doing everything possible, and sometimes even impossible, to resist the aggressor, trying to shoot down its missiles and UAVs," Ihnat said.
