    Completely wrong, firing them in a cluster has a much much higher success rate. Anti Air defense always struggles with saturation attacks. Ideally you would fire all your missiles at once.

      r*ssia makes a lot of missiles, as long as they are able to make them they will fire them. Nothing wrong in this statement. Ballistic missiles are fired largely in ones or twos and they are mostly successfull at reaching the target. AA struggles with ballistic missiles since V-2. SAMs in UA are imported, there is no homegrown system yet unless you count soviet upgrades (which aren’t being made anymore).

          And? They fired at least two ballistic missiles yesterday, they will fire similar number today, and tomorrow, and the day after. AA is cool, destroying engine plant and killing 50+% of workers there - no more missiles.
