As a result of the operation, eight high-value enemy air defense assets were neutralized
The Nemesis 412th Unmanned Systems Brigade posted footage of combat operations on its Telegram channel. Three P-18 radars, two Kasta radars, and three air defense missile systems were destroyed.
A single such system can control tens of kilometers of airspace. Its destruction removes an entire element of the air defense shield.

Such radars can detect airborne threats within a radius of up to 250 km and at altitudes of up to 35 km. They transmit information on the air situation and provide target data to the command posts of air defense systems, which then engage the threats
The air defense systems can intercept airborne threats at ranges of up to 70 km and at altitudes ranging from 10 m to 35 km.
These capabilities allow the enemy to shoot down cruise missiles, tactical ballistic missiles, anti-radar missiles, UAVs, guided bombs, aircraft, helicopters, and other aerodynamic, ground-based, and surface targets.
The elimination of such targets allows Ukrainian drones to penetrate deeper into enemy territory.
Earlier Defense Express reported that Ukrainian operators had taken out russian BM-27 Uragan system despite improvised protection. We also wrote that Ukrainian air defense had shown interceptions of jet-powered russian drones near the front line.
