Keep in mind that cruise missiles are very expensive. Tomahawks are $1 million each. Russia probably has cheaper ones. I'm too lazy to do the search right now, but suffice it to say that such weapons are precision weapons and used when more traditional means of attacking a target aren't viable.

Putin's been clear that he's "de-militarizing" Ukraine right now. He's clearing airports, planes, ammunition depots, radar installations, etc. This is very similar to the first two days of what we did to Iraq in Desert Storm.

We didn't take out power plants or refineries. Those are things you typically want to capture intact because 1) you don't want civilians crises to have to sort out, 2) once you capture a city, you need them running, 3) building new plants takes years and truckloads of cash during which you have to find other power sources to run the water treatment plants and keep the hospital lights on.

Hitting bioweapons or chemical weapons' facilities are really good targets for precision-guided cruise missiles as long as you ensure you hit the target and use a warhead that burns hot enough to ensure complete destruction of any agents. It keeps your troops out of harm's way and minimizes risk
