Onyx shelling: Do Ukraine have anti -ship missiles in Ukraine (photo)

The rocket flies quickly and at low height, which complicates its detection, so the Patriot -type complexes are required for effective interception. Russian troops began to use anti -ship missiles from the shore missile systems "Bastion" for blows to southern Ukraine. Defense Express figured out whether there was effective opposition against Onyx missiles.

The occupiers began to use anti-ship missiles P-800 Onicks, which can affect ground targets at high speed of about 2448 km/h and have a fighting part of 200 kg. The trajectory of the flight takes place in a combined trajectory. At the beginning of the flight, the rocket flies at a height of 14-15 km, and when it is approached to the target, it decreases 5-7 meters from the surface.

In this case, the rocket flight range is up to 300 km, if the entire flight is at low altitude, then the range decreases to 120 km. But the updated version of the Onyx-M missile has a stated range of 800 km. The missile guidance system on the final area is carried out by the radar head of the self -introduction, but it is possible to defeat in advance in advanced coordinates.

Onyx is called a classic anti-ship missile, but at a high speed of flight, which distinguishes it from X-35, Harpoon or "Netna". Since the beginning of the full -scale war, the Russian Federation has only used "Onyx". In June 2022, the Armed Forces reported on the interception of 8 Onyx missiles, then used in December 2022 and the missiles were also intercepted.

But in July 2022, the Armed Forces Command of the Armed Forces noted that the purpose of P-800 Onyx was extremely difficult for Ukrainian air defense. A month later, it was stated that Ukraine could not knock down onyxs, it is necessary to intercept Patriot or SAMP/T. However, the publication states that the P-800 can be confused not only with the anti-rope, but also with the help of HRB. Therefore, Ukraine knocks them on the goal and thus as the spokesman of the Air Force command Yuri Ignat.
