They were expecting big slow drones that would take hours flying from Ukraine. Instead they got many small ones that took 18 months to arrive but were invisible until the last minute. A surprise zerg rush, when they were expecting and preparing against ultralisks.

They seem to have gotten complacent because they can just move the planes if Ukraine sends long range drones.

Yes, it's a war of many firsts, especially about distance being a form of defence. Moskva was drowned like that too.
