Russian ‘Bal’ Costal Defense System Struck Targets In Ukraine With Cruise Missiles (Video)

File image.

The Russian Bal costal defense system has demonstrated its land-attack capabilities by striking a number of targets in Ukraine.

On April 20, the Russian Ministry of Defense shared footage of the system, which was originally designed to engage naval vessels, firing a salvo of four Kh-35U cruise missiles from an undisclosed position on the Russian Black Sea coast at military infrastructure targets in Ukraine. The missile strike was reportedly successful.

Each launcher of the Bal system can be armed with up to eight Kh-35 or Kh-35U missiles. The system utilizes the Monolit-B radar, which was especially designed to provide long-range, over-the-horizon active and passive search capabilities. In active mode, the radar can detect surface targets with a range exceeding 100 kilometers. In passive mode, the range increases up to 450 kilometers.

The Kh-35U, developed by Russia’s Tactical Missiles Corporation, is an anti-ship missile with a land-attack capability. The cruise missile has a maximum range of 260 kilometers with a speed of no more than Mach 0.85. The missile can fly as low as four meters before hitting its target.

The cruise missile’s navigation system is built around an inertial navigation system aided by a GLONASS satellite navigation system. The missile is equipped with an active radar seeker for terminal guidance.

The Kh-35U version launched from the Bal system is armed with a 660 kg high explosive fragmentation shaped charge warhead.

The air-launched version of the cruise missile, which is armed with a lighter 550 kg warhead, has been already used to strike military target in Ukraine.

The Russian Navy has struck dozes of Ukrainian military targets with naval and land-based missile systems since the start of the Russian special military operation in Ukraine, leaving no doubts about the effectiveness of its offensive capabilities.

I hope they reach the guys in the azovstal bunkerfest, it will make the beat drop harder

RealityOfWar

Why – the US and NATO’s stated aim is to contain the war to Ukraine. Makes sense as it fits with their strategy – fight Russia to the last Ukrainian without risk to themselves. They are also fully aware of the Russian KIG weapon – Kiev is glass! Which if necessary will curb incursions.

Us weapons do shit,dud!

Dibby, the US isn’t as “strong” as you perceive them to be in Europe. Russia’s military planners have already factored in the chances of fighting NATO in Europe. For the US to engage the Russia, they would need a LOT MORE troops and weapons, otherwise they would face a defeat. Again, Russia is only using a small fraction of their military today in Ukraine.

jens holm

Im sure You hardly know anything about us. You re TOLD.

Your version for whats possible must be in a Russian context. Nato only are using a fraction of their militaries at their borders.

Its just lke here for Russia. The autopilot ffor most Russian lover s taæk down, what er have. They also talk up the Russian stuff and capabilities.

RealityOfWar

Interesting, why the real use of this – because Ukrainian navy doesn’t exist anymore, so use for something else, or is there a supply issue and hence a forced use and adaption. You have to admit it’s all an enigma with Russia, hard to work out!

Got to admit Russian hypersonics and normal cruise are doing well in the expo!

It’s not only naval weapon but multi purpose misslile, capable of striking land targets. Same as kinzhal, which is first of all anti ship weapon (meant to take out high value ships, like aircraft carriers) with land capabilities. I guess those missiles went to Azovstal area since it’s very close to Russia anyway. I really doubt Russia would be anywhere close to depleting their missiles, they just test various things since real stuff gives way better feedback than any drills would.

“The Russian Bal costal defense system has demonstrated its land-attack capabilities by striking a number of targets in Ukraine.”

Literally the first line of the article.

rex

Maybe these systems are more precise, have more range, can penetrate/destroy fortified structures. I haven’t even heard about this Bal system.

Florian Geyer

The use of a variety of Russian weapons is simply to ensure On the Job Training for all the Russian assets. The accuracy of the Russian anti-ship missiles cannot be ignored by the LGBT NATO sailors.

Just last evening a small post in Romania documented that US have 1 BSL4 biolab in the country and peoples were knowing NOTHING about that. Only the intelligence agencies know. It is located in the far east of the country near border with Ukraine, at Tulcea. That already triggered vastconcern in media but I think this will gonna to be a discarded subject immediately when the shithole criminal Empire of Lies will order romanian colony to shut down this kind of news. It happened in the past and will happen now for sure

It might be the only thing they have because the Putin cockroaches are getting pounded badly at Izyum. They still want push through hoping that the Ukranian forces will just let them through. They still haven’t catched up on the fact that the Dombass line is a stalemate. https://www.ukrinform.net/rubric-ato/3462877-enemy-suffers-significant-losses-near-izium.html

Pal, the Russia forces will grind down the UAF to the ground in the Donbass Battle over whatever time duration it takes. This is not a race. The UAF in the south of Ukraine are the living dead. It’s over as a military contest. You should be supporting your Muslim friends in the Russian military anyway rather than the satanic Nato alliance.

You’ve been saying the exact same bullshit for two months now. Not a single city has fallen. Not even Mariupol. But they’ll keep trying for sure. Putin’s amateur pride is just too gigantic.

Ukrainian propaganda is your source? Since claiming they liberated Herson 3 or 4 times already i would say is they who get pounded into dust there 😂

I mean russian news are not reliable, but ukrainian are just next level shit. They probably already fight for Belgorod and Kursk in their bubble.

This war is looking more like a weapons testing and marketing show the longer it lasts. The west is winning the propaganda war. The east is winning the weapons marketing show and the war. Everyone is ignoring the acquisition of two additional regions in this war. The regions next to Crimea. Zellensky is winning the clown show. As long as the Russians control the skies the troop kill ratio is probably 10 to 1. Russia can target troop concentrations with missiles all day long but it looks like the Russians actually want to keep part of the AFU in tact. I have no clue on why.
