Ukraine air force spokesperson Yuriy Ihnat said Friday that missile launchers are half-empty following a winter strike campaign by Russia. Ukraine has asked allies for as few as five to 10 missiles at a time for NASAMS and IRIS-T systems. Depleted defenses increase vulnerability to future strikes as global demand for interceptors strains supply from the United States.
