The fifth broken unit is not specified, but the operation once again shows the vulnerability of the Russian system to modern asymmetrical warfare. The S-400 Triumph, which has been portrayed by Russian propaganda as one of the world’s most advanced air defense systems, has repeatedly failed against coordinated drone attacks since the war broke out in 2022.
The “Ghosts” unit continues to attack strategic goals in Crimea, and undermines Russia’s ability to maintain air control in the region.
