Media: American UAV shot down in Yemen by a Soviet rocket


“It is assumed that the unit was destroyed on January 20 in the sky over the capital of Yemen, Sanah. The video contains the moment of launch of the rocket with Hussites from the C-75 Dvina anti-aircraft missile system and the shooting of the UAV debris located on the ground, ”the publication comments.

The newspaper reminds that the “Dvina” C-75 air defense system was adopted in the USSR in 1957 year, was supplied to more than four dozen countries and in many of them it is still in service ”.



Recently, the Washington Post reported that "in 2015, the US lost a total of 24 heavy UAVs in Afghanistan, in the Horn of Africa, in Iraq in Libya, Kuwait, Turkey, Syria, and, presumably, in Mali and Yemen."

                The probability of hitting the S-75 with one missile is 0,8, and the two are 0,95.
                If the target is not fast and does not maneuver like a louse on a scallop, then just one missile is enough, which has been practically proved.

                So now they save.
                According to modern technologies, five Bukov missiles would be made of materials for one Dvina now, and nothing else could be said about the others. So most likely they are not being made anywhere else - they are being shot from warehouses.

          And not only modern rockets. It is a pity that heavy drones do not fly on ukraine. Would like to watch. Well, there’s nothing to put the Hussites with new equipment, they will give us.
          The history of the disappearance of new Western equipment from the Ukrainian army without a trace is long and sad. Or maybe it's funny - it's like someone. But in any case, it continues. Now drones too! The situation was succinctly described by the member of the US House of Representatives Duncan Hunter. Having visited Ukraine on a study tour, the California Republican told his congressional colleagues the following: "Joking aside, the Russians do not shoot down Ukrainian drones - they take them for themselves. They take them to Russian territory, where they land." The words of the congressman are quoted by the Washington Times.

        From the SAM that was put into service in the distant 1957, there was almost nothing left, even the KUNGs in which the equipment was located, it seems to me, are different. And missiles have long been gone.

          Agree that from the form of KUNG itself the ability to destroy a target does not change. Regarding the equipment, of course, much has changed constructively over 60 years. Because the elemental base changes without asking designers.

        Unpleasant news for our pilots fighting in Syria: in the area of ​​the Deir Ez-Zor airbase, the militants of the “Islamic State” * captured the fighting positions of a part of the Syrian army’s air defense. What exactly and in what quantity fell into the hands of thugs is unknown. But judging by the images that the bandits posted on the Web, they now have at least one 2P25 combat vehicle, a self-propelled reconnaissance and guidance unit (SURN 1C91) and several 3M9 anti-aircraft missiles. All these are the main components of the Kvadrat air defense mobile complex, the export variation that became notorious after the Donbass summer of 2014, “Cuba”. What is missing is the target designation reception booth (KPTs 9S417).
        Naturally, from photographs it is difficult to judge in what condition the weapon is. Outwardly, neither cars nor rockets showed any damage. What is inside - only Allah knows. However, in war, commanders simply must foresee the worst case scenario. That is, in this case - that the “Square” captured in Deir Ez-Zor is serviceable and ready for battle.

          At bmpd and Denis Mokrushin, this topic has already been discussed.
          In the comments, they quickly recalled the fate of the serviceable Osa air defense systems captured by the militants. For them, the militants had both crews and missiles. But with this air defense system, shoot down only 2 Syrian helicopters - after which the "wasps" were destroyed by the Russian Aerospace Forces.

          By the way, what is the infamous "cube"? In Donbass there was a "beech" - the next generation, the heir of the "cube".

          It is easy to find out: if the RTR detects the broadcasting of the 1C11 radar (or, even worse, 1C31), then the "square" will move to the list of top priority targets. If not, it will wait for its turn.

      That's right - the launch was carried out by the calculations of government troops. It’s just that each side of the war in Yemen has its own government. smile

      Seriously, most of the government army is fighting on the side of the Hussites. But since in the Western media this war is represented as a rebellion by a handful of extremists against the legitimately elected president, the army men were also recorded as Hussites.
      It cannot be said that the regular army is fighting on the side of the opponents of the democratically elected president - this does not fit into the official Western version of this war. But here's the trouble - the army has a lot of such weapons, which the rebels never had. From here there are mind-blowing messages like "rebels fired on ballistic missiles in saudi arabia"Or"SAM rebel shot down a drone". smile

      In Yemen, what kind of government troops? Half remained loyal to President Saleh and sculpted for the Hussites, half for the Saudi coalition, loyal to the new runaway and returning President Hadi .. There are a lot of Soviet weapons there, several f15 and f16 were shot down, and one of f16 was shot down from S-60, ordinary anti-aircraft guns, the Hussites have 120 of them left.This indicates not only the skill of the anti-aircraft gunners, but also the level of training of the Saudi pilots

    And actually, what is the problem to shoot down a drone. I do not understand them, but I think he is not stealth, does not fly at supersonic speed. The main advantage of drones, in my opinion, is the relative cheapness and lack of a pilot inside. They must a priori be knocked down and fall. The fact that the Americans lose them only means that they use them intensively.

    Urgent news. In Syria, terrorists captured the air defense system
    "Square"
    The square was captured

    In the area of ​​the Deir-Ez-Zor airbase, militants of the "Islamic State" banned in the Russian Federation attacked the positions of a part of the Syrian air defense unit. In the hands of the terrorists, judging by the pictures they posted on the Web, there were at least one 2P25 combat vehicle, a self-propelled reconnaissance and guidance system (SURN 1S91) and several 3M9 anti-aircraft missiles - the main components of the Kvadrat mobile air defense system.
    It is difficult to judge the state of the weapon from the photo. Externally, no damage was done to vehicles or rockets. What is inside is not known. Perhaps the captured "Square" is serviceable and ready for battle.

    I just can’t understand, what is it that everyone is worn with these unmanned vehicles? The same pieces of iron as ordinary planes. As for stealth, this is generally complete nonsense. At the M200BR, who understands (this is the first radar on lamps) we saw the Shrike compartment and could accompany it. And for the 75 complex, this is not the trick.
    Another issue, in my opinion, UAVs are very interesting as a scout, as a strategist who has been bartering the sky for a long time. Well let's say a week. I understand that this is only possible with a nuclear power plant. Moreover, such an aircraft was tested, though with a crew, but irradiation. The topic was closed. In my opinion, it is time to return to this topic again.
