Strange missile attack or.... nothing weird.
So. At around 23:50, 6 Tu-95MS strategists were recorded taking off. A short time later, at about 00:40, 2 more Tu-95MS Strategists took to the air, and at about 01:40, another +3.
Thus, 11 Tu-95MS were in the air this night.
That many Tu-95MS have a launch potential of 88 missiles. But they wouldn't have launched that many anyway. Firstly, because they now have an accumulated BC potential of approximately up to 30 missiles. Secondly, the indicator loaded on the Tu-95MS missiles to date, an average of 4 per aircraft.
In the end, was launched up to 8 targets, 4 of which were shot down, and the rest, according to official statements, could be deceptions. The launches were carried out from 5 aircraft out of 11. That is, 1-2 missiles per aircraft.
Another unusual phenomenon was that the launch was carried out in the Engels area.
I recall that earlier launches of X-101/555 were carried out from the airspace over the Caspian Sea. From other locations launches of these missiles were rare.
Actually, at first glance unusual behaviour and unusual attack, but in fact not quite so.
There is an attempt to change the tactics of missile strikes, to choose the most optimal location and a set of defeat and diversionary means. Changing the location is probing a new route of the missile flight and the reaction of our air defence to it.
As for the number of aircraft, the use of more Tu-95MS than launches can be due to the demonstration of the increased threat of a massive strike, which maximises the activation of all air defences in Ukraine, which is recorded by the Russian side.
Actually, this strike did not have a purposeful goal to destroy dozens of objects, to triple the night of hell. In this case, there was reconnaissance, identification of air defence in view of the new tactics of strikes. And if the ROV command was satisfied with the result, a real strike can be expected in the near future.
