Russian "Kinzhal" loitering munition seemed to disappear from the media for a long time, but in fact, the Russian "Kinzhal" loitering munition has become more active on the battlefield. With the Ukrainian army's tanks and armored vehicles running low and being used less effectively than before, and with the Russians using a large number of drones to attack the Ukrainian tanks, armored vehicles, and other vehicles, the "Kinzhal" is now more often used to destroy engineering equipment used by the Ukrainian army to build defensive structures, with very good practical combat effectiveness. As a result, it is more difficult for the Ukrainian army to establish new front lines. Moreover, the destruction of Ukrainian engineering equipment by the "Kinzhal" also helps the Russian forces isolate the battlefield, preventing the Ukrainian army from repairing the bridges and pontoon bridges destroyed by the Russians over rivers. In addition to attacking engineering equipment, warehouses storing building materials needed for Ukrainian defensive structures are also frequently destroyed by the "Kinzhal" loitering munition.
Ukrainian media have recently been complaining that the effectiveness of the Ukrainian army in countering the Russian "Kinzhal" loitering munition has significantly declined. This is mainly due to continuous improvements in the "Kinzhal" loitering munition, including the use of new communication channels and better guidance systems. For example, the "Kinzhal" loitering munition equipped with a new thermal imaging guidance head can be used day and night, all-weather, and has significantly improved anti-jamming and ability to detect Ukrainian camouflage, with a precision rate reaching 95%. In terms of range, the current "Kinzhal" has exceeded 90 kilometers, possessing strong depth strike capabilities.
