In 2025, special forces of the SBU’s Alpha Special Operations Center halved the number of Russian Pantsir anti-aircraft missile and gun systems with long-range strikes.
“Pantsir” is one of the modern and key air defense systems of the Russian Federation. The cost of one complex is from 15 to 20 million US dollars. It is these SAMs that are most effective in countering Ukrainian long-range drones.
That is why the systematic destruction of “Pantsir” has a strategic goal – to break through the enemy’s air defense and create corridors for hitting targets deep in its rear. This allows the Defense Forces of Ukraine to effectively operate on military bases, warehouses, airfields and other facilities of the occupiers.
Recall that the total cost of all Russian air defense systems destroyed by the SBU’s “Alpha” in 2025 is estimated at approximately $4 billion.

NATO should invade ruSSia, they have never been weaker.
That’s a good idea, but who will have the courage to take the first step? And who will have the courage to follow suit?
