Valery Romanenko, aviation expert.

-Why was Ukraine unprepared for the appearance of the Shahed jets and how does Valery Romanenko assess the current system of countering them?
-What did the strikes of jet drones on Kyiv bridges show and are such attacks really capable of destroying the bridge?
-Why did the role of F-16s and other aircraft in intercepting them increase dramatically after the appearance of jet drones?
-How expensive is it to use fighters against drones and how does this affect the resource of Ukrainian F-16s?
-How can the Russians use mesh modems and ground repeaters to re-orient drones over the territory of Ukraine?
-Can turrets and large-caliber machine guns become the "weapon of last chance" for the defense of Ukrainian cities?
-What is known about the Ukrainian FP-7 and FP-9 ballistic missiles and how realistic is the "ballistics on Moscow"?
-What could be the difference between FP-7 and FP-9 and why is the creation of long-range ballistics a much more difficult task than it seems?
-Is Ukraine too focused on Fire Point and is competition needed between ballistic missile manufacturers?
-Why was Russia able to disrupt one of Ukraine's missile programs earlier and how is Ukraine now trying to protect production?
-How many ballistic missiles can Russia realistically produce each month and should we expect even more strikes?
-How are Russian "Gerani" changing and why do new navigation systems make them less dependent on GPS?
-What could be the next technological leap in Russian weapons after jet drones?
-What is known about the Russian analogue of Starlink - the "Rassvet" system - and how can it change the guidance of Russian weapons?
-Why does Valery Romanenko consider the upcoming winter to be difficult and how should Ukrainians prepare for new attacks on energy and infrastructure?
