Abstract
The aim of this article was to identify the main errors and weaknesses in the actions of the Russian air force in the war in Ukraine and to determine their effects. This article presents research findings focused on assessing the offensive actions conducted by the Russian air force following the armed invasion of Ukraine from February 2022 to early 2024. The scientific considerations presented in the article allowed for the identification of fundamental weaknesses within the Russian air force that prevented it from achieving air superiority over Ukraine. In the Author's assessment, these weaknesses in the Russian air force have had a fundamental impact on the course of ground operations. The article's analyses are supported by statistical data that convincingly affirm the validity of the discussions as well as the conclusions and generalizations drawn. Additionally, this article also presents the results of confrontations by Ukrainian air defense forces in engagements with a wide range of manned and unmanned aerial vehicles, as well as cruise and ballistic missiles employed by the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. The analysis covers the period from 2022 to March 2024.
