guess Russian figures they better get their hits in now, while they can
once the new IRIS-T and NASAMS anti-missile systems start arriving (soon), any attempted Russian missile attacks will be hooped
(* as a bonus, NATO gets to try out their equipment under real-world battlefield conditions)
I wonder what sort of idiot one needs to be to believe that a dozen of puny SHORADs are going to make a difference for a country which already lost hundreds of exponentially more advanced systems?
Congratulations.
Your propaganda has moved me from apathy to full out anti Ukraine.
From comments from other freepers, I can see I’m not alone.
The S300’s are less advanced and not as good for point defense.
The S300’s are more useful for area antiaircraft defense. They are why the RuAF does not dare overfly the bulk of Ukraine, other than the frontlines at low level. The more the new SAMs can take over the anti cruise missile role, the better off Ukraine will be.
S300 is just great for tactical targets as long as you can afford to expend ammunition on such. The limitations are few and not really important for that exact theater. They have Buk for tactical targets which is head and shoulders above NASAMS, Iris T is outright crap even based on published specs, let alone not even fully tested.

The blast radius of these missiles, dampened by trees, is about three tennis courts.
Four missiles would damage at best a couple of football fields of stuff.
And these missiles cost money.

Go with it.
She’s on a roll.

“What sort of idiot” begs Iran for military technology? Vladimir Vladimirovich. Ukraine is going to have a world class air defense system based on NATO technology and you can thank Putin for it.
Iran is a technologically advanced middle class country, way ahead of Poland on any figure. If we are talking about drones they captured and duplicated the most advanced from the US.

Great :)
