Air defense as "Swiss cheese": What could the Russian Federation withstand Tomahawk missiles - Avayexpert (Video)
It will be difficult for the Russians to knock down the Tomahawk missiles because they have been paying too much attention to the Armed Forces drones lately and neglected by the missile defense, Anatoly Khrapchynsky explained Avaya Expert on the air of Express. Means that could counteract such means of the defeat were sent to Crimea, where Ukrainians were successfully disposed of.
Khrapchynsky answered the journalist's question whether the Russian Armed Forces had means of counteracting American "tomatos". According to the expert, today such systems are sent to the Crimea, where they have already been destroyed. The rest went to the Moscow and Leningrad region, and the rest of the goals in the Russian Federation have no protection. "[Russia] has not been tested by the missile defense systems for a long time.
The air defense system of the Russian Federation is a Swiss cheese that allows us to actively work and use these holes in order to strike in important objects," the air expert said. In addition to the absence of air defense, the Russians will have some problems with Tomahawk missiles. Khrapchynsky noted that the high height of the trajectory significantly complicates the work of the air defense of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation.
In addition, the means of the lesion can be programmed for the defeat of 15 goals, but in the flight it is possible to reprogram: that is, the enemy will not be able to predict where the rocket goes. "Tomagavk" a rather interesting rocket that can change its destination, conditionally, can be traced, but cannot follow the destination point exactly, so it helps to bypass the air defense system, " - he sounded on the air.
