Ukraine’s indigenous ballistic missiles could put Russia’s best-defended targets at risk, Turkish expert says

Sitki Egeli, a military and security analyst and associate professor at Izmir University of Economics who has worked with leading Turkish defense companies, said this in an interview with Ukrinform . “ Ukraine’s production of ballistic missiles will complicate things for Russia, because some of the best-defended targets will become vulnerable. Ballistic missiles are very difficult to intercept. You need a big investment in development and deployment. The Israelis and Americans have found out in the Iran war that the number of incoming missiles is always larger than the number of interceptors available,” Egeli said.
