Everything changes very quickly, there is little time, and you constantly have to make decisions,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"421\" data-end=\"634\">Fedorov noted that Russia is rapidly advancing its technologies, which means the success rate of shooting down Shaheds by interceptor drones may fluctuate. Meanwhile, Ukraine is actively deploying countermeasures.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"636\" data-end=\"739\">\u201cThis is a daily change of tactics. The outcome depends on who adapts faster,\u201d the minister emphasized.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"741\" data-end=\"864\">He added that contracts have already been signed with at least four companies developing large-scale interceptor solutions.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"866\" data-end=\"1050\">\u201cThere are promising technological advances using cutting-edge technologies, with solutions that usually take years of work having already been found and implemented,\u201d Fedorov assured.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1052\" data-end=\"1172\">According to him, the timeline for Ukraine to have a sufficient number of interceptors depends on scaling up production.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1174\" data-end=\"1336\">However, the Russian Federation is targeting Ukraine\u2019s critical infrastructure and production facilities, so we must also strengthen security, the official noted.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier, it became known that Russian <a href=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/boyove-udoskonalennia-shakhedy-navchylysia-protydiiaty-ukrainskym-dronam-perekhopliuvacham\/\">Shahed drones began to perform complex maneuvers in flight to avoid being hit by Ukrainian interceptor drones<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Recall that the Russian troops may soon begin using <a href=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/royovyy-rezhym-i-zhyve-keruvannia-iak-okupanty-onovliuiut-shahed-136\/\">updated &#8220;Shaheds&#8221;, which are capable of real-time control<\/a>.
