The Russian army has found a new method of defense against Ukrainian aircraft. It consists in the use of mock-up anti-aircraft missile systems.

What we know

Colonel Yuriy Ignat, spokesman of the Air Force of Ukraine, told about this. He stressed that the Russians make photos of mock air defense systems and distribute them on social networks as "reliable information.

At the same time, according to the colonel, such protection does not always help the Russian army. For example, Ukrainian servicemen have already managed to destroy 15 S-300 surface-to-air missile systems recently.

At the same time, Yuriy Ignat confirms that Russia continues to bring real air defense systems to the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine. In particular, we are talking about anti-aircraft missile systems S-300, S-400, Buk-M2, Buk-M2 and Tor.
