Big problem is the Russian air force has been holding off for just this moment. Low flying helicopters and drones are hard to hit and doing significant work defending the lines. It's why we've seen a lot of helicopters downed in the last week too.

Give it time, there'll be a solution eventually.

Other than aircraft, what could be a solution? Ka52's main missile keeps them out of range of gepard, manpad, etc., and long range sam can't really be brought closer.
