Russian BUK-M2 Air Defense System Obliterated By Bayraktar TB2 Drone
Published 2 years ago
Ukraine's General Staff of the Armed Forces released yet another video of a Turkish-made Bayraktar TB2 drone destroying a Russian BUK-M2 mobile air defense system.
The Buk-M2 (NATO designation: SA-17 Grizzly) is a Russian-made mobile medium-range surface-to-air missile (SAM) system designed to defeat strategic and tactical aircraft, tactical ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, air-launched missiles, guided aerial bombs, and helicopters.
Yet, for whatever reason, the anti air system cannot or is not tracking or targeting the Ukrainian TB2 attack drones as we have seen a number of Russian armor and air defense systems destroyed by it. Russia's plan to control Ukrainian airspace likely hinged on the effectiveness of the BUK-M2.
