Late on Sunday night, President Volodymyr Zelensky confirmed on social media that all of the operatives of the nation’s security services, SBU, who had participated in a a raid earlier in the day that knocked out about $7 billion in Russian military aircraft within the invading country’s airfields, were safe in Ukraine and accounted for.
The operation was dubbed “Spiderweb.”
“An absolutely brilliant result,” the president wrote.
“A result achieved solely by Ukraine. One year, six months, and nine days from the start of planning to effective execution. Our most long-range operation. Our people involved in preparing the operation were withdrawn from Russian territory in time,” Zelensky wrote on Facebook.
Depends how high it goes. There’s probably a sweet spot for observation and drone deployment somewhere that offers some defense against ground based attacks.
I doubt it would be deployed against an active battlefield probably better suited to monitoring and pacification.
