Ukrainian force posture and readiness: UAF maintains a strong defensive posture across all axes, actively repelling RUF assaults and conducting localized counter-attacks. Units like the 3rd Assault Brigade demonstrate high readiness and effectiveness, pushing RUF forces near Ridkodub. Active counter-UAV and deep strike capabilities (e.g., "Wings to Hell," "Novem Group" drone units, 128th Separate Mountain Assault Brigade, and the newly funded "Lyutiy" deep-strike UAVs) demonstrate continued offensive and defensive innovation. UAF is also focused on essential civilian functions, such as housing restoration in Zaporizhzhia and holding graduation ceremonies, which indicates resilience. Continued training for units like the 46th Separate Airmobile Podilska Brigade DSHV AFU demonstrates ongoing readiness efforts.

Recent tactical successes or setbacks:
Resource requirements and constraints: While substantial international aid continues to flow (Netherlands, Germany, UK joint production, Czech-Slovak EW systems), the sheer volume of RUF drone and missile attacks (71-97 UAVs overnight) places immense strain on UAF air defense resources, highlighting the need for continuous replenishment and modernization. The continued need for grassroots fundraising for equipment (e.g., specific Mavic drone models, thermal imagers, comms) suggests persistent gaps in official supply chains or specialized equipment needs for frontline volunteer units. The appeal for transport for drone operators highlights logistical needs. The impact of sustained combat operations on UAF personnel, particularly those involved in continuous defensive actions, remains a concern for long-term readiness. Despite these constraints, new funding for "Lyutiy" deep-strike UAVs and the delivery of generators/drones to Zaporizhzhia forces demonstrate ongoing efforts to meet equipment needs and enhance capabilities. Ukraine's military-industrial complex has significant potential (over $35 billion) but requires partial arms export and further investment to reach full capacity. The significant UK aid package for anti-aircraft missiles, funded by frozen Russian assets, will alleviate some AD resource strain.
