In Georgia, they announced the downed Russian combat aircraft.

The Georgian Ministry of Defense announced that the country's modern air defense systems will turn Russian combat aircraft into scrap metal, stressing that a turning point has already come in connection with the appearance of modern air defense systems in the country's armament.

“According to Forbes correspondent David Ax, Georgia has signed a new agreement with the Israeli firm Rafael to modernize its air defense systems and" bleed "the Russian air force. It has been 12 years since Russian troops defeated their Georgian counterparts in South Ossetia, when Georgia was still equipped with a Soviet air defense system, including older systems such as the S-125M. It is not known how much the deal between Georgia and Rafael will cost and what weapons systems the defense enterprise will work on, but it is assumed that it will include radars and surface-to-air missiles. ", - about it сообщает edition "AMN".

Such arguments are more than self-confident, since, as experts note, Georgia does not have the funds for good air defense systems, and therefore, obviously, the air defense systems that will be modernized by the Israeli military will have a short range and a relatively small chance of hitting targets. while the weapons in service with Russia are capable of hitting targets with an accuracy of meters at distances of tens and hundreds of kilometers, subject to a new military conflict between the two countries.

"The best that Georgia can afford is complexes with a target range of up to 35-40 kilometers - at such a distance they can be destroyed even by Soviet MLRS, and therefore arguments about the conversion of Russian aircraft into scrap metal are nothing more than Czech propaganda.", - the expert marks.
