US Media: 50 Tochka Ballistic Missiles Delivered to Syria

43
According to "Messenger of Mordovia", According to US media, 50 of Tochka ballistic missiles (SS-21 using the NATO code) were supplied to Syria. How large a specified number can be demonstrated by an expert assessment, according to which approximately the same number of missiles of this type was in service with the Ukrainian army on the eve of a civil war.

US Media: 50 Tochka Ballistic Missiles Delivered to Syria


An anonymous US official provided information according to which the tactical weapon It was delivered to the port of Tartus two days ago. In addition to the words of an unnamed informant, there are no data capable of objectively confirming the fact of these deliveries. American journalists believe that in recent days, 2 SS-21 missiles and 4 SS-26 Iskander missiles were used against militants in the province of Idlib.

As can be expected, even if they intend to make real deliveries of this type of missile, the active actor of the Middle East - Israel - would mobilize all the resources at its disposal to prevent the deployment of tactical weapons in adjacent territories capable of neutralizing much of its military potential in the indicated quantities. , despite the developed system of air defense of the Jewish state.

          It is possible to come to an agreement with Israel, and the use of such systems, as indicated in the article, would not have gone unnoticed, if even the old woman "Moon" had been noticed.

    A very adequate solution.
    I do not think that the disposal of missiles for the "Point" will be able to "recapture" the costs of its implementation. Roughly, if there is 1 ruble in a gold microcircuit, and it takes two rubles to extract it, then it is easier to discard this microcircuit.

    And yet, you should not put an equal sign between the deliveries of Points to Syria and the supplies of Syria Points.
    As for the first, when using the complexes by the Russian military, no one will object. The press will make a noise.

        Given that the "Points" and "Points-U" are replaced by "Iskanders" until their complete disarmament.

          All right. And there is also a chance that in the "product" with an expiring shelf life, due to long-term storage, the instability of any structural element made of ebonite will manifest itself.
          Another positive point: reports repeatedly flashed that all the take-offs of our aircraft were recorded by DAIShevtsev informants from considerable distances and they managed to warn their own about it.

            Not only.
            A “point” can hit a detected target much faster than aircraft. At least in Syrian realities, when keeping a large number of planes in the air in "standby" mode is too expensive to reduce the reaction time. This only makes sense in intense fighting.

    Hussites really like Y points, they say the song is sung, and in Syria they will come in handy, probably on the limits and beyond, their service life has accumulated, they have been in service since 1975, in Afghanistan, the Skuds were shot by hundreds before being removed from service:

    Assad has previously had "Points" and "Scuds" delivered by Syria for many years
    back. Almost all of them were used up by the militants. Without much effect.

    "Point" - a good complex for its time, but a long time ago outdated. Although, to wet allahbabakhovtsy who do not have modern air defense systems capable of intercepting this "Point", this complex can still. I think that if used correctly, its use will guarantee the tactical situation in important sectors of the front!
