"Punched Shield": Moscow attacked drones-analogs of Iranian Shahd,-BBC

The maximum that Russian remedies can suppress the drones and prevent them from getting into the target, Ilya Abishhev believes. The drones who hit Moscow on July 24 were from the class of Iranian "Shahaned", which the Russian Federation itself attacks Ukraine. This opinion was expressed by the BBC military observer Ilya Abishev.

The expert pointed out that to check the statements of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation that the systems of electronic wrestling were suppressed by drones and did not allow them to attack important objects in Moscow, it is impossible to check. Iranian ShahED analogues are drones-Kamikadze and they are self-destroying when they reach the goal. "They exploded, and one near the buildings of the Ministry of Defense.

Whether the drones were knocked down from the course, or missed themselves, which was their main purpose - can only be guessed," Abishev said. Monday attack drones also showed disadvantages in the work of the Russian air defense system. According to the analyst, in the Ministry of Defense itself do not deny the fact that UAVs are unobstructed into the airspace of the Russian Federation, fly almost to the center of Moscow and only then does the air defense system begin to work on them.

"Drones-Kamikadze once again sew a shield of the sky of the Russian capital, fly to the center, and the air defense, as the Ministry of Defense implies, comes into battle with them, when all the available means-up to small arms,"-said Ilya Abishhev. He believes that the maximum boundary of the work of the systems of EWS in Moscow is to disable the radio or optical-electronic guidance system for a specific object.

But even these opportunities are demonstrated by the military when the drone goes to their goal. Although ideally they should "work out" UAV long before the coordinates previously established. In this case, the Kremlin does not comment on today's plaque on Moscow. Presidential Presidential Dmitry Peskov did not even answer the journalists' questions about whether the authorities made any conclusions after the May wired.

Instead of a clear answer, Peskov advised the media to ask the Ministry of Defense to the Ministry of Defense. We will remind, on July 24, Yuri Ignat revealed how Russia knocks drones in the Crimea. According to him, Ukraine should go to practice, when the enemy drones are not confused by anti -aircraft missiles, but are disposed of with the help of HRS systems. On the same day, the Armed Forces hinted at who launched drones on Moscow.
