The performance of the Russian military’s top air-defense system in Ukraine has shown it’s vulnerable to even some older Western missiles, and wins against it could give the West new ideas on how to defeat it, experts say.
The Russian S-400 is considered one of the world’s most advanced air-defense systems, but in Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, multiple units have been destroyed, including by older Western weapons the system should be able to handle.
Experts told Business Insider the system is clearly very capable, but it does have some weak points that Ukraine has been able to exploit.
