  1. > Ukraine’s air defense forces shot down 56 attack UAVs and two enemy missiles on the night of October 5 to 6.

    > … In total, the radio engineering forces of the Air Force detected and tracked more than 90 enemy aerial targets, including two Iskander-M ballistic missiles, one Iskander-K cruise missile, one Kh-59/69 guided aerial missile, and 87 Shahed UAVs ….

    > According to the Ukrainian Air Force, two missiles and 56 enemy strike drones were shot down in the Mykolaiv, Odesa, Kyiv, Cherkasy, Kirovohrad, Dnipropetrovsk, Sumy, Chernihiv, Poltava, Vinnytsia, Khmelnytskyi, Zaporizhzhia, Zhytomyr and Kharkiv regions.

    > In addition, 25 UAVs (as of 09:00) disappeared from radar in various Ukrainian regions, probably as a result of the work of Ukraine’s electronic warfare.

    Assuming the Ukraine figures are accurate,
    (more likely they are approximates, given the pressures & fog of war, and overnight reporting)

    87 UAV incoming minus 56 shot down minus 25 EW jammed
    6 = 87 – 56 – 25
    Does this mean 6 UAV penetrated the UA defenses?

    2 Iskander-M + 1 Iskander-K + 1 Kh-59/69 minus 2 missiles shot down
    2 = 2 + 1 + 1 – 2
    Does this mean 2 missiles penetrated the UA defenses?
