LONDON, 23 July 2022, (TON): British military intelligence said “Russia has increased its use of air defense missiles in a secondary ground attack mode because of critical shortages of dedicated ground-attack missiles.”
Ministry of Defense said “Russia has almost certainly deployed S-300 and S-400 strategic air defense systems, designed to shoot down aircraft and missiles at long ranges, near Ukraine from the start of the invasion.”
It said it said “the weapons, which have relatively small warheads are designed to destroy aircraft.”
He added Adding that they could pose a significant threat against troops in the open and light buildings but are unlikely to penetrate hardened structures.
