Russians have installed dozens of air defense systems in the occupied Crimea, even a mobile radar station “Nebo- M”. However, the Armed Forces of Ukraine reported that it had been destroyed. Experts say that this station could intercept our aircraft.
The Russians have installed many air defense systems in Crimea
Military expert Oleg Zhdanov told channel 24 about this. According to him, now in the occupied Crimea, the number of air defense systems is several times greater than the number of missiles that can be fired on the peninsula.
He says that it is not known who fired what in Crimea, because Ukraine has not yet officially confirmed that this is the work of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
Only in Sevastopol is it known for sure that a Chinese drone hit the roof of the headquarters of the Black Sea Fleet. The exact same one hit an oil refinery in Rostov-on-Don earlier,” Zhdanov assured.
He stressed that air defense actually shoots down missiles, but it’s hard to say where and which ones.
“Although sometimes there are explosions in Crimea, there are damages. Therefore, there are not so many “reports” of the Russians here, but they are quite possible that they shoot down something, but we do not know what flies and where they shoot down,” the expert replied.
The Armed Forces of Ukraine destroyed the Nebo-M radar station
The Yug OK noted that, as part of carrying out fire missions, the Ukrainian military destroyed Nebo-M, a mobile radar system for detecting aerodynamic and ballistic objects.
Zhdanov explained that this radar Station (RLS) “Nebo-M” is important because it observes the entire sky and can work in an inactive mode.
That is, it can passively determine targets and transmit them to air defense systems or Russian aviation. They probably use radar to intercept our aircraft, if we work as attack aircraft or bombers, he replied.
The military expert noted that this radar is rare in the Russian army, there are few of them, so it destruction is important for Ukraine.

The occupiers rejoice that “Yevpatoria is under protection”
- A message about air defense systems in Yevpatoria was published by Russian woman Marina Greshakova. She noticed that the city was protected by invaders. The young lady really wanted to show off the achievements of the aggressor country, which literally surrendered its air defense positions. And, as it turned out, the woman accidentally launched almost a flash mob.
- After all, another network user soon repeated and surpassed her achievements. He posted a photo posing in front of the S-400 system. He decided to immediately publish the photo on VKontakte in order to collect curses.
- Experts say that such social network users can work as “gunners” for the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Even if HARM does not arrive there in the next few days, it is obvious that the Armed Forces of Ukraine will lay routes for the supply of “cotton” in such a way as to fly around these positions. So that the Russians can let people take pictures so close,” says Defense Express expert Ivan Kirichevsky.
