Destruction of the AFU air defense position area in the Kharkiv region. Analysis of the Fisherman.
Today, Russian missile forces hit the S-300 air defense position area of the Ukrainian army with an accurate strike of the Iskander operational-tactical missile system.
Ukrainian troops have placed at least four launchers in pairs at a distance of several meters from each other, as well as a radar station for determining air targets, in a wooded area north-west of the village of Lesnaya Stanka on the banks of the Oskol River.
As a result of the hit, a secondary detonation of ammunition occurred at two complexes. At least two S-300s were completely destroyed, the remaining two and the radar station were most likely also disabled by fragments from the Iskander projectile and flying parts of the SAM.
The Russian Armed Forces have resumed work on systematically suppressing enemy air defenses. The continued supply of weapons to NATO countries, including air defense systems, creates a serious problem for the Russian army in the future, which must be solved immediately.
At the same time, the Ukrainian formations themselves began to completely neglect basic precautions. The S-300 position area with at least five launchers was located 21 km from the contact line. For such carelessness, they paid the price. Russian UAV operators easily found anti-aircraft systems on duty and quickly aimed the missile troops at the point, hitting several air defense systems at once with one shot.
This example once again proves the effectiveness of combining intelligence tools with high-precision shock weapons. The "detect-point-hit" system should become a standard set of actions on the front line. At the same time, in no case should we forget about elementary security requirements: the example of the Armed Forces of Ukraine proves that placing several pieces of equipment at one point is the best gift for the enemy.
