The shoulder-mounted air defense missile is one of the large number of military aid weapons and equipment received by Ukraine at the beginning of the outbreak of the Russian-Ukraine conflict. The shoulder-mounted air defense missile is a type of shoulder-mounted air defense missile produced by the United States. The goal of these shoulder-mounted air defense missiles at the beginning of the design was to intercept a large number of low-altitude aircraft. According to the United States, the shoulder-mounted air defense missiles have intercepted only about 70%. However, on the Ukrainian battlefield, the shoulder-mounted air defense missiles have even played their own "second spring". Ukraine used the shoulder-mounted air defense missiles to create a record. In addition, the large amount of support for the shoulder-mounted air defense missiles has also led to the complete hollowing out of the United States' assets. Now the United States has asked defense contractors to re-produce shoulder-mounted air defense missiles.
In today's Ukrainian battlefield, the stinger-shoulder-anti-air defense missile has created a myth again. Logically speaking, the target of the stinger-shoulder-anti-air defense missile should be locked on a large number of drones and low-altitude helicopters. However, what is surprising is the stinger-shoulder-shoulder-shoulder-mounted air defense missile, and even directly set its sights on the cruise missile launched by Russia. On October 10, Russia launched nearly 100 missiles to Ukraine.
These 100 missiles include KH101 air-launched cruise missile, KH555 air-launched cruise missile, caliber cruise missile, S300 long-range air defense missile and tornado multi-barrel rocket launcher shells. At the critical moment when hundreds of missiles launched continuous strikes on Ukraine, it was reported that Ukrainian soldiers used stings shoulder-launched air defense missiles on the battlefield to intercept the Russian army.
From the many videos published on Ukrainian social media, there are indeed videos that Ukrainian troops successfully used shoulder-mounted air defense missiles to shoot down Russian incoming missiles. Now Ukrainian President Zelensky has also begun to praise the soldier in a high-profile manner. According to a news report by Ukrainian media, Ukrainian President Zelensky pointed out that the air defense missile card belonging to the 57th Independent Infinite Electric Engineering Battalion successfully used the stinger air defense missile in the direction of Chernigov to intercept the Russian missiles, and made praise for the soldiers at that time. Zelensky pointed out that the soldier had shown outstanding skills and reactions. The reason why the
sting-shoulder-resistant air defense missile can intercept cruise missiles is because the flight speed of the cruise missile is only about Mach 0.7 and does not achieve supersonic speed. Therefore, the sting-shoulder-resistant air defense missiles can also set up ambush on fixed routes. Zhan Yan believes that Russia's cruise missiles will face in the future, because the number of sting-shoulder-shoulder-resistant air defense missiles in Ukraine's hands is quite large, so the Ukrainian troops can also use these missiles to frequently intercept Russian missiles. They can launch sting-shoulder-resistant air defense missiles into the air regardless of whether they intercept them or not. Text/Aris
