$40 Million Russian Radar For Buk-M3 Destroyed By Strike
Published 1 years ago
Ukrainian strikes continue to dismantle crucial Russian equipment, this time a reportedly rare 9S36M radar unit for the Buk-M3 air defense system. The radar cost is estimated to be around $40 million and the amount of units in service are extremely limited.
The strike appears to be an airburst precision munition approaching from an extremely high angle, likely a GMLRS from a HIMARS, M270, or something similar.
