Tonight, Ukraine made another attempt at attacking Russia with FP-5 "Flamingo" cruise missiles, however, once again, they were all shot down by Russian air defence.Ukraine launched at least 5 Flamingo cruise missiles from Sumy/Chernihiv Oblast, which were subsequently shot down over Tambov and Penza Oblasts, ~430 km and ~630 km from the border with Ukraine respectively. Due to the previous attempts at having the missiles fly along the Don River from Luhansk Oblast failing, Ukraine launched them from a different location, reaching the Don River via Lipetsk Oblast. Because these missiles are so large and slow, they need to fly at low altitude near rivers to complicate Russian radar detection.Because they were flying for around 280 km through Kursk and Voronezh Oblasts prior to reaching the Don River, it provided Russia with ample opportunity to detect them, which resulted in much earlier alerts being issued for all border regions as soon as the missiles approached/entered Russian airspace. Despite the missiles then following the path of the Voronezh River, they were all subsequently shot down by Russian air defence over Tambov and Penza Oblast, likely because Russia has deployed a significant number of air defence assets to this area due to Ukraine repeatedly using this same flight route. Out of the last 10 Flamingo attacks, 8 resulted in all the missiles being shot down, while two resulted in one impact each to the same target in Kirov. Russia is clearly adapting rapidly to this new weapon, and unless Ukraine can counter-adapt, Flamingo missiles quickly become useless. Another example of a "wonder weapon" becoming less and less important as countermeasures are developed.
