NATO was able to bypass the defense of the Russian S-400 and suppress the Russian air defense.
The Russian anti-aircraft missile system S-400 "Triumph", worth several hundred million dollars, was suppressed by the British and Italian military during a unique special operation by only a few unmanned aerial vehicles, and, apparently, a test of new weapons to suppress the S-400 was carried out not only off the coast of Syria, but also near the borders of the Crimea.
“The Royal Air Force (Air Force) of Great Britain, together with the development company, Italian Leonardo, tested an autonomous swarm of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) BriteCloud, designed to deceive the radars of the enemy's integrated air defense system, writes The Drive. In October, The National Interest magazine wrote that Britain could learn to "block" the operation of the Russian C-400 Triumph surface-to-air missile systems (SAM). According to the publication, BriteCloud acts as an electronic "decoy" for enemy air defense radars. The publication writes that these UAVs can be launched, in particular, from the fifth generation F-35 Lightning II fighters. It is noted that "trap packages were programmed and targeted to work together to create maximum confusion.", - about it сообщает Russian information publication "Lenta.ru".
It is noteworthy that relatively recently, British military aircraft actually flew near Russian military installations in Crimea and Syria, which indicates a real danger to Russian air defense systems.
At the moment, there are no official comments from Russia on this matter, however, quite remarkable is the fact that Israeli and Turkish weapons were able to establish themselves in the Karabakh conflict, destroying two positional areas of the S-300 "Favorite" air defense system, which is the base for the air defense system S-400 "Triumph"
I am sure that the C 400 was sold to the Turks in a truncated export version.
I think that they were at the Turkish complexes, which we ourselves sold them and were happy, like children, trained. The NATO allies asked to check the effectiveness of their developments, but the Turks did not refuse.
A guest from Ukraine said that NATO planes have been flying "since 2015 with nuclear weapons ..", but forgive me for the primitively obvious question, how does he know on earth what is in the car in the sky? :))) When using nuclear weapons against the Russian Federation, in any case, the poisonous component after the activation of nuclear weapons will definitely definitely destroy the fauna of Ukraine and 70% of Europe. Great Britain, Germany and France, and others, are unlikely to agree to this option, even at the cost of losing Ukraine's sovereignty.
Since 150, British missile carriers with nuclear weapons on board have been flying over my house at a distance of 2015 km from the Russian border in Ukraine since 2015, patrolling. in XNUMX, Ukrainian missile launchers with ballistic nuclear warheads from North Korea, the military said that these missiles are stationed along the entire border of Russia, put on high alert and began counting down before the start of hostilities, that they have been preparing for war with Russia for two years , some of the personnel of the Ukrainian army are Turkish and Polish soldiers in Ukrainian uniform. They said the countdown went on for weeks. I am not joking and I am not provoking to anything, I have warned of the impending offensive in great secrecy.
The S300, like the S400, is not designed to destroy small UAVs, for their cover from the UAV there is a shell, with a reconnaissance radius of 40 km, a radius of destruction of small targets of 20 km. In Russia, developments are also underway on active jamming using drones. It's a pity we're always behind!
Right. But here it's not even a weapon in action ... but a means of control .... For some reason, it seems that, if necessary, our air defense has various options for combating UAVs, in addition to very expensive air defense systems and the same expensive missiles intended initially for breakthrough aircraft 4th and 5th generations.
And what, is there any information that the Russian air defense did not detect the UAVs of Great Britain or there was an attempt to destroy them, but, like "missed" ...? In my opinion, this is information, such as ".. The UK could learn to" block "the operation of the Russian anti-aircraft missile systems (SAM) S-400 .." Unjustified bravado.
How can one judge the effectiveness of this or that weapon without the results of its actual use?
So the Russian S-400 complexes did not even turn on that day. They will be used only when a military threat comes. The silence of the Russians on the air was credited to the British for their victory.
And they are not afraid that we will turn off that thread on the plane ..
