Additional note: if the Russians are down to 7 total, this is borderline for keeping a continuous patrol up. You need downtime for routine maintenence, and 7… it’s on the low side for a 24/7 patrol.
Be interesting if China, the US or other players started harassing Russians on other fronts to try to force them to stretch their assets even more – just fly close to the front, force them to intercept or mirror you, just to keep the op tempo pressure up. We should be doing that already, as it forces additional logistics/maintenence work on Russia.

For those unaware, that’s some ~300mil down the drain for the Kremlin.
The comments think we are playing EVE online. Measuring the money cost instead of lives.
