Russia Modifies Missile Strategy with RM48U Training Missiles

Russia is confirmed to be deploying modified RM48U training missiles, originally S-400 air-defense targets, in strikes against Ukraine. This tactic is assessed to be a deliberate strategy to deplete Ukrainian air defense interceptor stocks, particularly Patriot missiles, while conserving precision munitions like Iskander, KN-23, and Zircon for future campaigns. The scale and full operational impact of this shift remain partially unverified.
