Syria Russian "Pantsir-S" did not shoot down a single Turkish missile

The Russian Pantsir-S air defense missile system did not hit a single Turkish missile.

Sources in the Syrian army report that during the shelling of Turkish SAA positions in Idlib, Russian Pantsir-S air defense missile systems did not shoot down a single missile fired by MLRS. Air defense systems are located in the front area to repel possible drone attacks, however, for unknown reasons, the systems could not detect and hit a single missile.

According to the same Syrian source, in the past 72 hours alone, terrorists and the Turkish army have fired at the positions of the Syrian government forces several times, firing a total of more than a hundred rockets, which even allowed the militants to break through the defense line. Nevertheless, the work of the air defense systems was never recorded, which raises a lot of questions as to whether the Pantsir-S air defense missile systems really are as effective as in repelling terrorist attacks on the Khmeimim airbase.

Specialists, in turn, draw attention to the fact that, in reality, the Pantsir-S air defense missile defense system is not adapted to repel attacks at such close distances, as it is located only a few kilometers from the work sites of the MLRS of Turkey and pro-Turkish militants.

“Missiles can cover a distance of 6-8 kilometers in just 8-12 seconds - during this time the operator needs to detect a small target, point guns at it and hit it, which is almost impossible. This is the key reason why the "Armor" did not begin to shoot down Turkish missiles. ", - the expert marks.
