The Armed Forces of Ukraine said that they created a unique air defense system

Air defense systems are old, Soviet, but thanks to tactical tricks, this is a unique system. This was stated by the speaker of the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Yuriy Ignat in an interview with RBC-Ukraine.

We have actually created a unique air defense system that is not found anywhere else in the world. We are fighting with the old Soviet means, using various tactics. Developed an alert system. We counteract missiles thanks to air defense systems, fighters, and plus MANPADS - people with portable anti-aircraft missile systems are deployed throughout the country, who must respond and intercept missiles. There are visual observation posts,” he said.

Despite this, Ukraine still needs modern air defense systems, which are used by NATO partners.

What do we have to do? To toughen up our air defense system with new modern means that are going into service with us. These are, in particular, NASAMS and IRIS-T. But, unfortunately, the amount that they plan to transfer to us so far will not be enough. Although this will be the first step when the partners will hand over Western-style heavy air defense systems to us,” Ignat emphasized.
