The media clearly showed the saturation of the air defense of the Khmeimim airbase

111

The air defense of the Khmeimim air base in Syria, organized by the Russian military, shows its effectiveness, and the Pantsir-S1 anti-aircraft missile and gun systems have proven their ability to deal with drones. This conclusion was reached by a Spanish military expert, author of the military blog Análisis Militares, publishing an infographic on the saturation of the Russian air base with air defense systems.

In his blog, the author writes that the Syrian rebels (militants - approx. VO), once again attempted to attack the Russian military airbase Khmeimim, but the base's air defenses successfully prevented the raid by shooting down all launched missiles.



According to him, the Russians have created a fairly effective air and missile defense system, saturated with various anti-aircraft systems and electronic warfare. Despite the large number of attacks made on the base with the help of missiles and drones, the built system throughout its existence did not allow a single hit, intercepting targets on the approach to the air base. Long-range interception is provided by the S-400 anti-aircraft systems, which have not yet been used due to the lack of targets for them.


The main defense of the base in the near zone is entrusted to the Pantsir-S1 air defense missile system, which intercept not only drones, but MLRS shells, which are periodically fired from the territory of the Idlib province, which is under the control of the rebels.

In addition, Russia has placed the Tor-M2 air defense missile system on Khmeimim. At the same time, the author claims that the Torahs were deployed on Khmeimim for testing them in combat conditions, and not because of the allegedly low effectiveness of the Pantsirei.

If the Pantsir-S1 air defense missile system were incapable of intercepting targets, it would be replaced by the same Tor-M2, but the Russians do not. The Pantsir / Thor ratio at the airbase is 6 to 1. (...) The Russians are interested in deploying a serious defense, because the threat of an attack on the base is real

- the author writes.

While on combat duty at the Khmeimim airbase, Pantsir-C1 air defense missile systems shot down more than a hundred drones of various types launched by the Syrian rebels, which proves their effectiveness in organizing air defense in the short-range zone, sums up the Spaniard.

      One cannot help but recall the drone / missile attack on the Saudi-Aramco oil refinery, when Saudi Arabia lost half (!) Of its capacity in a few minutes. They restored it, but the sediment remained.

      The American air defense did not detect anything at all, although it should have protected the plant! And this is an indicator, everything is learned in comparison.

          And deployed - yes, to the maximum, in all echelons, with a guarantee. This was done with an eye to the fact that none of the defendants there who have more or less serious means for an air attack and thought would not have to check the reliability and effectiveness of ALL air defense systems of our base.

          Interception of what and with what? I repeat - all the little things flying from the bearded ones are safely staggered, and nothing more serious flies there. "You are a pipe", it seems, does not owe anything to anyone. More precisely, our air defense is not obliged to post every burst or launch of the Pantsir missile. Moreover, all aggressive "gnarly midges" are destroyed at a distance, and as a result of hits, it scatters into a heap of sawdust.
          And yes, our air defense is not Houthis (with all due respect to them), and victorious videos on the network to raise the morale of our Defense Ministry are definitely not required. Everyday combat work is going on, fixing of results is underway, but without all this network tinsel. It's a bit of a pity, of course, for the townsfolk, who are left without another spectacle, but alas, they will have to break off here.

If each military object is covered with so many air defense systems, of different types and purposes, then there will not be enough funds to create the objects themselves.

                The Tor system is designed to cover important administrative, economic and military facilities, the first echelons of ground formations from attacks by anti-radar and cruise missiles, remotely piloted aircraft, planning bombs, aircraft and helicopters, including those made using stealth technology. It can work both manually, with the participation of operators, and in automatic mode. At the same time, the "Tor" system itself controls the designated airspace and independently captures all air targets not identified by the "friend or foe" system.

            It is quite possible that specialists for Pantsir are also trained there, in any case, the tactics of using Tunguska and Pantsir are similar. But there is one BUT. Because ZRPK Pantsir we have too little, then there is no need to create a separate faculty or school. What is more likely to send officers, for example, graduated from the Tunguska for retraining.

That protection against attacks of low intensity, by relatively simple means, our systems provide effectively .... this pleases, but the assessment for cost-effectiveness is not considered, but in vain! This is also an important criterion in light of the fact that we have a huge territory, objects that need to be protected by MASSA and ... there may simply not be enough necessary means of protection for everything that is needed!
    Although, we proceed from the fact that we will not simply defend ourselves and the aggressor will immediately receive a crushing response !!! he will sharply become not up to the fact that used to attack ... himself to remain intact at least !!!

    I have no and never had any doubts either about the quality of Russian air defense systems in the Khmeimim area, or about the skill of the personnel serving them. However, what flew there from the hands of the bandyukos can, of course, be called the proud name "drones" - we call the bicycle "a vehicle". I hope that the Russians will not have to deal with anything more serious there.
    But I like the opinion expressed by the Spanish blogger.
    ... While on combat duty at the Khmeimim airbase, Pantsir-S1 air defense missile systems shot down more than a hundred drones of various types launched by the Syrian rebels, which proves their effectiveness in organizing air defense in the short-range zone.

INTERFAX.RU - Russian air defense systems have repelled another militants' artillery raid on the Khmeimim airbase in Syria, the head of the Russian Center for the Reconciliation of Warring Parties in the Syrian Arab Republic, Major General Viktor Kupchishin, said on Thursday.
              "Today at 15 hours, militants of the Katiba Ard el-Bab and Katiba Jebel Butma terrorist groups from the Idlib de-escalation zone made another attempt to fire at the Russian Khmeimim airbase. In total, 15 were fired towards the airbase. rockets... Thanks to the efficiently organized air defense system of the Russian airbase Khmeimim, all missiles were shot down by the air defense on duty. There are no injuries or destruction, "said Kupchishin.

                      Today's information: "Syria repelled an Israeli missile attack on Damascus."
                      The Syrian State News Agency (SANA) reported that Syrian air defense forces in the skies over Damascus intercepted Israeli missiles and shot down most of them. SANA previously reported that Syrian air defense forces are repelling an Israeli attack on the western suburbs of Damascus. According to the agency, strong explosions were heard in the suburbs. "Today at 01.18 the Israeli enemy launched a missile strike from the occupied Syrian Golan and Galilee on a number of targets on the outskirts of Damascus, and the air defense systems repelled the aggression and shot down most of the enemy missiles," the agency quoted a military source as saying.
                      So all the same: "Never, neither Israeli, nor Turkish, nor American drones attacked the Khmeimim base."?
                      And what then did the Syrians shoot down?
                      Or have you forgotten the attack from the Mediterranean Sea 68 axes ("Tomahawks"), none of which reached the target?

                        Dear Mr. Epstein, if you carefully read the text that you yourself copied here, then it is clear from it that the Syrians are telling how they allegedly shot down some of the missiles fired by the Israelis from the Golan Heights on the outskirts of Damascus.

                        American, Turkish and Israeli drones have never attacked the Khmeimim base.

                        If you are talking about the rocket attack on April 14, 2018, then how is the Khmeimim base here?

                        Well, first of all, they were not allegedly shot down, but shot down.
                        Secondly, the rocket attack on April 14, 2018 was intended specifically for the Khmeimim airbase, but the missiles were disoriented by the electronic warfare equipment, some of them fell into the sea, some fell in the desert, some were shot down, and two missiles hit the Syrian airbase.
                        And the Israelis are launching their missiles from foreign airspace.
                        And where do the anti-Assad drones come from? You will not claim that they produce them themselves?

    The air defense of the Khmeimim airbase in Syria, organized by the Russian military, shows its effectiveness, and the Pantsir-C1 anti-aircraft missile and cannon systems have proven their ability to fight drones.

    According to Khmeimim, manned aircraft did not work. It is a fact.

      The fact that aviation and heavy drones did not work is an indicator. An indicator that nothing shines for them there, at all. The "window" is tightly closed for them, and there is no desire to kill expensive military equipment about Khmeimim. Therefore, they "troll" the base with small cheap drones and MLRS shells - cheaply, and at the edge of the "window" range - they will suddenly roll over the "window sill".

        Does anyone really think that with a normal organization, the air defense of Khmeimim or Tartus cannot be oversaturated? 10-15 MLRS and a couple of hundred drones - kamikaze. This is within the power of Daesh. After all, Palestine was able to organize 400 targets against Israel.

In our country, the importance of air defense is exaggerated, this is a weapon of the last chance, and not a guaranteed protection against air threats.

    Your logic is to smash the most modern sample of weapons, Without a crew, and not on alert, and then screaming hysterically, technique shit!
