According to Röpcke, Ukraine has depleted its stock of Patriot and Iris-T missiles. Additionally, he claims that most other air defense supplies have been exhausted or destroyed.

Patriot systems use GEM-T, PAC-3 CRI, and MSE missiles to counter various threats. Meanwhile, the IRIS-T SLS and SLM systems are based on IRIS-T missiles produced by the German company Diehl.
