For almost three years of full-scale war, the aggressor country Russia has spent billions of dollars on shelling peaceful cities of Ukraine with missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles of various types.
This is evidenced by the calculations of Radio Liberty based on information from the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Censor.NET reports.
The enemy systematically attacks civilian infrastructure and the population of Ukraine using various types of weapons.
For almost three years of full-scale war, the Russian Federation has spent more than $17 billion on shelling peaceful Ukrainian cities using missiles and drones.
During this time, the occupiers have used:
- seven Zircon hypersonic missiles worth 105 million dollars;
- 17 X-35 anti-ship missiles worth 5.3 million dollars;
- 68 Tochka-U missiles worth 20.4 million dollars;
- 76 missiles of unknown type;
- 134 hypersonic missiles "Kinzhal" for 1.34 billion dollars;
- 211 Onyx missiles worth $633 million;
- 215 Iskander cruise missiles for $215 million;
- 381 X-22 missiles for 114.3 million dollars;
- 927 Kalibr cruise missiles for $927 million;
- 1,443 Iskander ballistic missiles for $2.9 billion;
- 3,093 S-300/S-400 missiles worth $4.2 billion;
- 13,253 attack drones, which cost $3.84 billion.
The journalists note that the total cost is estimated at $17.6 billion, but it may be even higher, as some costs remain unknown due to the classification of data.
At the same time, some of the aforementioned types of weapons, such as X-22 missiles, were produced in the Soviet era, so they cost virtually nothing to the aggressor country's budget. However, Russia still has the ability to produce Kinzhals, Onyxes, Iskanders, Kalibrs, and attack UAVs.
