The Russian military has destroyed or damaged four more radar and air defense systems of Kiev forces with Lancet loitering munitions.
Between May 26 and 31, Russian news sources shared videos and photos documenting the pinpoint loitering munition strikes, which targeted Soviet-made 9K33 Osa short-range air defense system, P-18 long-range air surveillance VHF radar, 36D6 long-range air surveillance E/F band 3D radar and a Buk-M1 medium-range air defense system.
The Osa was hidden in a wearhouse, while the P-18, 36D6 and the Buk-M1 were protected by special nets. Despite these protective measures, all four systems were hit.

The Lancet was developed by the ZALA Aero Group, a subsidiary of Russia’s defense giant Kalashnikov Concern. The company produces two versions of the loitering munition, the Izdeliye-52 with an endurance of 30 minutes and a one-kilogram warhead and the larger Izdeliye-51 that has an endurance of 40 minutes and is armed with a warhead weighting three kilograms.
Both versions are equipped with a GLONASS-aided inertial navigation system, a laser ranging system and an electro-optical system that can detect, track and lock on static and moving targets.
The small radar cross-section and minimal infrared signature of the loitering munition makes it suitable for use in suppression of enemy air defenses operations.
The Russian military has destroyed 25 radars and communication systems and 32 air defense systems of Kiev forces with Lancet loitering munitions since the start of the special operation in Ukraine, according to Lostarmour.info, a website that tracks and documents military losses.

bye my american tax dollars, it was a nice time when you used to be spent for helping american citizens in the usa.
like helping millions cross the southern usa boarder?
no – and that’s the point.
kabooooom. looks like russia is finally on the verge of finishing off ukraine’s integrated air defense network.
the only thing those fucking morons are finishing is themselves…
butthurt ? very good, now cry you kurwa !
cállate subnormal
you probably need to gain some cred by adopting a recognizable calling card.
other trolls like tomsayer have three smiley faces, usa#1 has his enigmatic “heheheh” – what have you got to distinguish yourself among the ranks of the pay-per-post trolls?
first is a total bluff. metal garrage protect the vehicle from force of explosion. for these target a powerfull warehead is a must. as is seen on video, the only result of first lancet was panic and two sheet of tin ripped of from garage…. 2 and 3 look ok – damage or destruction.(warehead can be large, but not a must). 4-th was epic, here are total destruction. (for sure , warehead are enough in this case)
i bet 1 million green toilet papers that the barn in the first video is gone today. actually everything and everyone in the video is dead and bombed to pieces.
nope. a couple got away – you can see them in the video hightailing it out of there.
je priam úžasné sledovať ako sa ruskí vojaci naučili za krátku dobu ovládať tieto lietajúce stroje na diaľku. ako sa zdá tak ich profesionalita sa každým dňom zvyšuje. to samozrejme neveští nič dobré pre banderovských fašistov a samozrejme aj pre žoldnierov ktorí by sa chystali obsluhovať zahraničné pvo systémy.
nice fireworks. it’s so good of the us and its nato poodles to supply the russian admin with the target practice and weapons development. all these high tech western surveillance systems cannot defend themselves from a cheap drone. it seems that all the talk from american/nato supremacists is also cheap.
guys, saying ‘you’re russian’ in my country now means ‘you’re a loser’ or ‘you’re gay’ or ‘you don’t even own a toilet’ lol
your country is a toilet… enslaved stinky toilet full of worthless loser turds like you 💩
all pink skin are scum. causing problems around the world.
so what, stupid asshole?
it’s pathetic, @tomswayer is a bitch.
fffffffffffffffh
actually, assholes are really quite smart.
what else has the ability to separate solids, liquids and gases with no more physical utility than a draw-string?
by the way, just wondering – do you have another forum persona (or two)?
i’m told pay-per-post gigs don’t pay very much, so troll workers have to assume numerous identites to even make it half worthwhile.
i think that first building needed a second strike, i saw a lot of rat’s scurry away.
if the ammo is also in the barn, it can explode and destroy everyting. the video is to short so.
cidadãos americanos, o dinheiro de vocês está sendo jogado no lixo por biden!
pig skin ugly pale creature. glad to see whites doing it good to each other. we love it.
