The Russian C-400 in Syria had a chance to catch the Israeli fighter F-35i Adir.
According to the information provided by the Israeli media, two new F-35i Adir fighter jets, which were handed over to the air force of this country by Washington, were to land at one of the Israeli military air bases this afternoon. However, due to the fact that the information appeared long before these combat aircraft arrived in Israel, experts do not exclude that Russia could well use the latest C-400 systems to detect these combat aircraft.

“Despite the fact that the target destruction range of the Russian S-400 is about 400 kilometers, they can be detected within a radius of 550-600 kilometers, where Israel and its military airbases fall well. On the basis of such a "check", one can be sure that it is possible to successfully fight against fighters of this model, and this applies to all existing modifications ", - the expert marks.
It should be clarified that, according to a number of Israeli media, the F-35 fighter jets could already be used to attack Syria, but this information has not yet been officially confirmed
