Russia’s strategic bombers keep trying to bite Ukraine, despite Operation Spiderweb’s drone shenanigans that 'damaged what it said was at least a third of Russia’s bomber fleet.' The UK MOD reports Russia fired over 70 cruise missiles in July alone, demonstrating 'resilience and retained capability.' Meanwhile, Ukrainian media grimly notes bombers now come with a side of cramming missiles 'to full capacity' — as if military aircraft suddenly joined a clearance sale for payloads. Replacement plans? Minimal, because Russia stopped producing some models years ago. Resilience or desperate stuffing? You decide.
