In Video: Russian Stealth Cruise Missile Confuses Ukrainian Air Defenses

On July 17, a video showing a Russian Kh-101 stealth cruise missile confusing Ukrainian air defenses surfaced online.

The video was taken a day earlier during a Russian missile strike on the southern Ukrainian city of Dnipro. The target of the missile strike was allegedly facilities of the Ukrainian state-owned aerospace manufacturer Yuzhmash.

In the video, a Ukrainian air defense missile, most likely a 9М38 launched from a Buk-M1 system, can be seen exploding on its own over Dnipor only for a Kh-101 missile to pass by a few seconds later. The air defense missile either failed to lock on the Russian stealth cruise missile or was jammed by it.

The Kh-101, which was developed by MKB Raduga, is said to has a maximum range of 4500–5500 kilometers and a variable flight profile at altitudes ranging from 30 – 70 meters to 6000 meters with a cruising speed of 190–200 meters per second and a maximum speed of 250–270 meters per second.

The air-launched missile is guided by a GLONASS-aided INS [inertial navigation system]. It is reportedly re-targetable, and can be also equipped with a radar or optical seeker for terminal guidance.

The Kh-101 is armed with a 400–450 kg conventional warhead. A nuclear armed version of the missile dubbed the Kh-102 was also developed.

Both the Kh-101 and Kh-102 can be launched from the Tu-160 strategic bomber as well as from the Tu-95MS and Tu-95MSM cruise missiles carriers.

The Kh-101 unique features, especially its stealth design, makes it the perfect weapon to strike high-value targets in advanced Anti-Access/Area Denial (A2/AD) arenas from a very long distance. The Russian military has been using the system since the beginning of its special operation in Ukraine.

Well you know what they say, if you won’t speak with Mr. Lavrov (who’s really a very nice man) then you need to speak with Mr. Shoigu.

NATO's PROXYTUTE

NATO and its proxytute were not impressed by the charming approach of Mr Lavrov and thereby found themselves in a regrettable position facing an angry bear ready to shred every strand of their flesh. SLAVA ROSSIYA.

Bravo, great comment!

And if you don’t understand Mr Shoigu you can speak to Mr Kalibr.

RealityOfWar

This is the fun of war, the intellectual challenge made of highest importance due to the nature of the fight – to the death. Hard to judge what happened here – the trajectory estimation looks good, but understanding the range seems a little bit a miss. Was it due to electronic countermeasures, was it due to evasion by the cruise missile……. who knows! the good thing is that missile continued on to take out Ukrainian Nazi piss forces and equipment.

They got Dimitri now to overlook the tech with the glonass sats,absolute world leading stuff,the missile defense system of ukraines is no slouch by a longshot too,but that was like in a cartoon.

Totally!

TopGum

You made your “point” … I see :-)

I’m not a military expert, but maybe if the Ukrainians for once aimed their fancy Western toys on the Russian army instead of their own civilians, they wouldn’t be retreating all the time. Just saying.

Gods Truth Teller

Ukrainazis more intent on using “Orwell’s 1984 DOUBLETHINK” tactics w/ using civilians as Human Shields. So it’s because they are so angry “Russia Russia Russia” preventing these ignorant fools from Genociding Donbass people out of EXISTENCE… all so they can claim this Resource Rich lands (coal, oil, gas, steel, xeon gas, wheat, etc WEALTH for SICK Oligarchs in USA, NATO, CIA, WEF Khazarian Mafia!

Zelenskyy only has 1 Mansion on the Italian Riviera and just one in Florida and needs more like Bernie Sanders is getting from Democrat Party of Global Suicide Squad…. including AOC & her other dimwitted Marxist Globalist Prostitutes in America! MORE CRACK for Hunter is always needed by Slo Joe to get his 20% cut like Obama & Bush Family did!!!

NATO's PROXYTUTE

Neither amount of NATO/Ukrainian effort nor materials would change the course of this war, no other result but certain victory for Russia sooner than later.

That was the decoy!!! The real missile was the one you heard and saw flying right after the Russians tricked the Ukrainian air defenses. This video is sick!! Slava Mikhail Kalashnikov

7even-N-6

Jamming decoy not that there were 2 missiles.

7even-N-6

That bright light was the Ukrainian missile then it exploded on its own as it was Jammed by Russia.

TopGum

It hit the air and made a nice kind of a firework. The Russian missile flew by seconds later and delivered some Ukies stright to hell, so they could meet their buddy Bandera (meeting was overdue). Oh and some generals in UK/USA had to change their diaper. Not bad for a Russian washing machine? That’s what the collective west is telling their people is happening. Russia ran out of missiles in March already. It had to be a washing machine.

So far I haven’t seen a single shot down of a Russian missile by any of the Ukrainian AD. All I get are BS statements from Ukrainian officials who obviously have to lie to make a victory out of everything. NATO is certainly coping too with the fact that even they have nothing in storage to counter Russian standoff weapons. And Russia hasn’t even put up a “real” fight. What they do to those Nazis is sufficient already to decimate them at a nice rate. Only change to the daily routine is, that artillery won’t be granted prisoner status anymore. They will be shot on the spot for shelling peaceful cities.

😉👍 You will not find credible evidence (pictures, videos, etc.) on any Ukraine government website (Defense-ua, Kyivpost, etc.) of anything the Ukraine says. They blame Russian, LPR or DPR forces and if you watch video interviews of citizens involved or Ukrainian POWs as they will confirm the exact opposite regarding evacuation, treatment, care and well being. I’ve watched to many videos and read to many videos to conclude otherwise. Propaganda is very high within the Ukraine.

TopGum

Same here. They project only. If Russia makes gains, Ukies dismiss it as a wining strategy for themselves (as if they allowed it to happen as a part of a strategy). If they kill/murder civilians, they just blame it on Russia like they always do. There will be a time for all those criminals in Kiev to account for their barbaric behavior. Neither US nor NATO will be there to save them. They both have too much blood on their hands for that matter. Russia does not forget. They are collecting all the evidence they can get for the time after Ukrainian capitulation. There is no way around it.

Ukros are going to edit/cut off second half of the video. And claim another victory!

TopGum

All they ever had was an upgraded version of common fireworks. NATO was a joke before, they are more of a joke now. Yeah, they are not a part of that conflict … they practically pull the trigger on every Ukrainian weapon themselves, but they are just too afraid to state it officially and face their destruction. A bunch of corrupt, criminal cowards and hypocrites. They started it, Russian army will finish them .. oh I meant it ;-)

That single short video footage represents the entirety of the unfolding events on the ground where the RF troops are winning and the fascists are in limbo.

That video reminds me of the Roadrunner and Coyote cartoons as coyote’s schemes invariably blow up in his face (and he can see it coming…) while the roadrunner skates on by on his merry way.

Lots of money, both missiles. If they just gave me all that money I would be happy.

Russian Army and Air Force engineers are now able to jam most of the Ukro air defense, if not all of them.

The Ukrainians have been largely shelling Don Bas civilians since 2014, and retreating when they see the Russians. Quite pathetic.

This was probably a jamming device and a fake radar signal, a signal that increases its insensitivity, which confuses the other missile believing it would getting closer to the target and hitting it. Russians are smarter!!!

The missiles of Ukraine seem to be reduced to expensive fireworks.

The missile looked to be heading in the wrong direction anyway.

America SQUANDERED it’s military superiority chasing Muslims around in Iraq & Afghanistan, while Russia & China used that time to move ahead in many areas of war fighting, Hypersonic missiles, lighter, faster and more nimble fighter jets too.
