The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation: the air defense system of the Russian Armed Forces in Syria was not used

449
The Russian Ministry of Defense reported on the number of victims of the US-French-British aggression against Syria. If you believe the reports of the General Staff of the Armed Forces, three people were injured. At the same time, it is noted that the US missile strikes were also carried out using existing weapons aboard two warships that were in the Red Sea at that time. Recall that initially it was reported about strikes from ships from the eastern Mediterranean, but this information, as it turns out, is not true.

The decision of the United States Joint Chiefs of Staff to strike from the Red Sea is dictated by the fact that the activity of Russian warships has increased in the eastern Mediterranean in the past few days.



Air strikes over the Mediterranean were carried tactically aviation. Also involved were U.S. Air Force B-1B strategic bombers from the At-Tanf area.

In the Russian Defense Ministry noted that the Syrian air defense intercepted all 12 cruise missiles, which were sent to one of the military airfields CAA (Dumeyr). In total, in Syria, the French, British and Americans fired more than 100 cruise missiles of various manufacturers across Syria.

MO RF:
Russian air defense systems in Syria were not used that night. Syrian air defense systems C-125, C-200, Buk and Kvadrat were used.

    At a specially convened briefing at the RF Ministry of Defense, Colonel General S.F. Rudskoy made a statement:
    “Russian air defense systems at the Khmeimim and Tartus bases promptly detected and controlled all missile launches from both sea and air carriers of the United States and Great Britain,” Rudskoy said after he spoke about the time of the morning attack on Syria. – The American armed forces used F-15 and F-16 fighters, as well as B-1B strategic bombers.
    A total of 103 cruise missile launches were carried out, with American bombers using guided bombs and fighters using air-to-ground missiles. As it turned out, 71 of the missiles launched were intercepted by Syrian air defense systems. Russian units did not participate in repelling the attack. And it is noteworthy that the Syrians used for this purpose old, Soviet-era air defense systems: the S-125, S-200 anti-aircraft missile systems, as well as the “Kvadrat” and “Buk” systems of the first generations.

    So, reading the comments on this case, on all the threads, I noticed that most of the comments were divided into two camps: “Everything is gone” and “Hurray! The missiles flew into the sand, intentionally.” This is understandable: after our statements, we were publicly “washed” This is a fact, sadly But, the blow was “so-so” in strength and effectiveness ..
    I think that the truth is both here and there... All previous events were a prelude to something more. For some reason, we forgot about Turkey.. The feeling is that we need to wait for “surprises” from there.

      Turkey's reaction was quite predictable.

      They didn’t give the Hegemon a piece of tinsel and everyone immediately ran to support him: They say that Sharkhan is still able, which means “And we’ll go north!”

    That’s it, we need to leave Syria, since the Russian army cannot ensure the safety of Syrian citizens. You can't wash yourself away from this kind of shit forever.

    So why? There was so much talk about perfection and no application. So many hits were made on ground targets. So many people said that they would respond to the attackers and nothing. But the Americans promised and did it, so who is stronger?

    For me, the most important thing is that no one died! (at least they don’t say it yet). Human life should still mean a lot.

    Do they even exist there? If so, why are they there? Just wash off the dust and give out medals to the generals for winning the barmalei? So they have already been defeated twice, as announced. Shame ... in a word. The whole world has already appeared on television about this ... And only the GREAT is silent ... although, he did not say anything about May 2, 2014 in Odessa.

    Why the hell promise to shoot down? We would sit in silence, wipe our snot...

    Bah, you old man are stupid, like a cork.

    Continue to be proud that "very competently" hit me. And obviously you want me to drop to the level of a boorish opponent too? Read your first post carefully. If you do not understand, then explaining is useless.

    But how can I understand you, my dear? You are glad that thanks to the president they are bombing Syria, and not us. So you feel sorry for the Syrian children.???

    Yes...there were people in our time...not like the current tribe...Bogatyrs, not you... In general, Vovan Vovanych leads 3: 0......Skipal, obviously they got it.. . Duma, also.....they will prove everything, show everything.... The moral upsurge of the Syrians.... Syria's air defense with our help.. worked quite well... By the way, it is rare to see.. a clean collision.. .purely missile defense and missiles... No missile defense suppressors... no carrier suppressors.... I think our GENERAL STAFF... was counting on 30-49%.... What will the Yankees do with our layered missile defense.... Not very somehow... Here the AUG would have lost its legs... with losses of 30-40%.. this threshold for staff members is critical... panic and run... Now Russia will draw conclusions... regroup and supplement the arsenal.. . and then at least a couple of reinforced AUGs .., no less... and they’ll hit us at anyone.. And here, as Alaric said.. “THE THICKER THE GRASS, THE EASIER IT IS TO MOW.... It’s time to drown a couple of connections and say” Sorry"....alaverdi...they crossed the Rubicon...we know their strength, we know what to count on...everything is in Our hands...
