Sounds like the Ukrainians re-engineered the Patriot system and now it works far better than the IDIOTS at Raytheon designed it.

Hmmm.
Here is a very good explanation of the system.
Try it you might like it.
I was working at Raytheon when the Equipment Division merged with Missile Systems, around 1998. Our systems engineering department was merged with the Patriot systems engineering. We had dozens of systems in our portfolio, COBRA DANE, ROTHR, PAVE PAWS, BMEWS, inter alia. Patriot was bigger than all of them combined. Those guys were sharp, they knew their stuff and produced the finest, most reliable SAM system ever produced. There were no hypersonic Russian, or other missiles at the time. New users extended a very successful design to new uses.
Reality check, for those remaining few freepers who still value reality.

Are you old enough to understand what the phrase “too good to be true” actually means? ... This is nonsense to meant to distract from the recent massive loss to a bunch of convicts and their leader, a former chef with no previous military experience.
Rocky, watch me pull a rabbit out of a hat.
The propaganda is getting increasingly desperate in maintaining the hype over overpriced dusfunctional stuff, but the truth comes out over time. You don’t hear about Saint Javelin and Holy Baytaktar much anymore, Reverend HIMARS is following them into oblivion.
