If Sevastopol had been made available for the Russian military to use, would that have prevented this Ukraine war from happening?

it’s mostly a question of numbers not accuracy
4 missiles per launcher - send 5 attack aircraft and at least one will get through.
Higher accuracy helps, longer range helps but ultimately it’s down to math.
