The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation lost state-of-the-way settings C-400 in the Crimea: what do strokes of the Armed Forces-experts

The latest complexes of air defense of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation were destroyed by American rockets, created almost 40 years ago, explained journalists. Strokes of old ATACMS show that Russian weapons are not as effective as stated. Russia has lost the starting settings of the C-400 Triumph, which should protect the military facilities of the Armed Forces in the occupied Crimea.

The blow on them was caused by the old American missiles atacms, which flew at half the maximum possible distance. The consequences of regular use of ATACMS have told Business Insider. Journalists recalled that on the night of June 10, it became known about the destruction of three Russian air defense settings. One of them stood under Jankoya-it was a modern C-400, created in 2007. The other two stood under the Black Sea and Evpatoria-C-300, created in 1975.

Particular attention is paid to the C-400 air strike, the article is said. The ATACMS missiles released in 1986 were used to attack defense forces. "A blow to Crimea is probably another example of how older missiles made from the West can negate even the most modern air defense systems of Russia," journalists said. The article makes comments on several experts who explained the importance of attacks for military purposes of the Russian Federation in Crimea.

It should be noted that on June 10, the Armed Forces General Staff confirmed that it was possible to kiss three air defense settings in the occupied Crimea. Separately it was noted that the Russians did not knock down any rocket launched by Ukrainians. At the same time, the satellite photos of the consequences of the hit under Jankoy appeared. In the photo you can see an explosion that happened 2 km from the Gankoy airfield.
