The Air Force of Ukraine cannot effectively shoot down these missiles, because they are launched from the occupied territories from a distance of 40 kilometers.
Russia will use S-300 missiles exported from Belarus to increase shelling of front-line territories.
“We know what Russia is doing with the S-300 missiles. These are anti-aircraft missiles that are designed to hit air targets… the Russians have a whole range of such weapons – they are Buk M1, M2, M3, Thor, Armor , “S-300”, “S-400″, etc. They saturated the occupied territories with these complexes and threaten our Air Force,” said Yuriy Ignat, a representative of the Air Force Command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, on the air of the telethon.
According to Ignat, the Russians consider the S-300 missiles obsolete. At first, they used them in Ukraine in single volleys, and then in massive front-line cities.
He added that these rockets are terrorist because they are equipped with metal elements that fly apart during the explosion and injure people.
To effectively shoot down missiles of this type, they need to be launched from a distance of at least 100 kilometers, but the occupied territories are much closer.
“If these missiles were launched at a distance of 100-150 kilometers, then the trajectory of the defeat could be calculated, but if it is at a distance of 40 kilometers, then there is no accuracy. Therefore, these missiles fly through peaceful infrastructure. That is why Belarus transfers these missiles to Russia, because they want to shell more front-line cities “, – he said.
The war in Ukraine: the participation of Belarus
As reported, the Russian Federation exports missiles for the S-300/400 anti-aircraft missile systems from Belarus.
It is with these types of missiles that the occupiers fire at peaceful front-line cities of Ukraine in the Dnipropetrovsk, Kherson, Kharkiv and Zaporizhzhia regions.
According to the Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense, Belarus plans to establish the production of projectiles for barrel artillery and rocket launcher systems.
In this connection, a visit of the Belarusian delegation to Iran is planned for November 20-23. The list of issues for discussion with the Iranian side concerns the entire production cycle – from the technology of steel smelting for the component parts of the ammunition to the painting of shells and containers used for their packaging.
