Russian S-400 Triumf: The Culprit Behind Storm Shadow’s Missile Failure 

The photos of the storm shadows indicate lightly damaged missiles. Hence I suggest hits by a SPAAG or s near miss and proximity fuse destination on a small missile like Pantsir. If it’s a S400 it’s accuracy was poor.

@@williamzk9083 make your own storey s-400 shoot down su27 of ukrain at 150 km so accurency is awesome

huge warhead doesnt always blow up its target. its its to insured if its near miss the chance of the blast radius or fragments hits the target and down it. most top notch SAM has its radar on the missiles. the HQ give it location area and the missiles radar activated and home on it. what makes a good SAM its it radar. the west has a network of integrated tracking system. this is why there's so much warship in the ocean and not much on land. the warship provide global air defense in the case of ICBM and ballistic. to even be more prepared the west would seek the SAM site and destroy it before they send jets and what not. if you fight smart you win with the equipment you have. the best strategies is having the best of everything and not rely on certain group.

So is BBC 😂😅

I would completely agree. However, hitting one missile with another missile is a very complicated thing to do. It is my understanding (and this is not my field of expertise as I was an AH-64 pilot and did not operate ADA) that the goal is not to hit the the incoming missile but to detonate in the vicinity of the incoming missile. If this were the case it is entirely possible for only light damage to the Storm Shadow by shrapnel from the explosion.

Pantsir S1? You mean da truck with 30mm's and rockets? How?

@@patriktoth6258 Let's see.. To start with: S-400 and Pantsir S1 missile system can be integrated into a two-layer echeloned defense system. In this case Pantsir-S1 will use S-400 radar to track threats way beyond it's fire range. Since threat will be recognized early, crew can calculate and make additional preparations for adequate response. They can request additional firepower from other formations nearby. Early detection gives such advantage and will increase it's effectiveness overall. Pantsir-S1 was designed against such threats as helicopters, aircraft, HARM, UAV (that's what 30mm cannons are for) and finally ALCM munition on minimal height about 5 meters or so, which is precisely what Storm Shadow stands for after all. Air launched cruise missile. For that it is armed with one of the best missiles in the world with staggering 70% kill rate. Which is why by design each target will be attacked by two missile salvos. The only thing against which Pantsir S1 isn't effective enough (on paper) - are tactical ballistic missiles. But then again, Pantsir S-1 was used during early stages of war against Tochka-U tactical ballistic missile with cluster munition used by Ukraine. And the reason why we haven't heard about Tochka-U since last year - this weapon has practically extinct. Literally. It's safe to say now, that in same part of world that deem to be allies of Ukraine - there are no Tochka-U left "alive". They gave everything they had to Ukraine, even parts for cannibalization were sent. To end with: It's not a "wunderwaffe" by any means, just a very smart design and implementation of unique concept on a serial model. Especially when used in a two layer echeloned defense system with S-400 radars. Extremely effective at designated role. NATO is the reason why they learned how to maximize it's effectiveness to the point when people like you are asking "How?". In fact they didn't actually knew or had any clue on how effective it would be against MLRS, but NATO forced them to learn that it is capable of intercepting them as well. This fact was surprise to them as much as it was shock for NATO. You can find videos of Pantsir S1 intercepting GMLRS-30 salvos. NATO is working hard on creating a monster. It's never a good idea to downplay effective weapons for propaganda. Hope that clarifies it.

@@MrZlocktar ever think of airplanes in nato land.. uhm poland as example... fly around much better scanners...(To start with: S-400 and Pantsir S1 missile system can be integrated into a two-layer echeloned defense system) lololol orc please...

Keep on doubting

@@victortakunda5443 No what I doubt is the veracity of anything Russia claims.

I can believe those numbers. Seeing that the Uk is out of them, and on top of that Putin convinced the factory workers that make these missiles to go on strike

it will not change reality if storm shadow was that successful against russia west media would made so much buzz around these missiles they created around tb2 drones now u dont see any tb2 drones in news do u

Copium addiction alert!

Yes, and overestimating and presenting even minor advances or victories of the ucrainian side doesn't do much good in the long run... hence the spring/summer/autumn offensive dissapointment.

We do deserve honesty

😂😂😂 who has the last laugh

Russia did not invade..but was begged by 17 official Ukrainian delegations to Moscow, to come in and protect the local populations against genocide. Don't you know the history of this conflict?? Read up on it from respected independent sources. One can't Invade by Invitation of the population. That's clear in all proper international law. Only the western propaganda reads international law, by selective approach.

Just like the patriot shot down Kinzal missile

Soon they will have an even better system than S-400M, with all things they are learning... And the USA has that pathetic Patriot system that is useless.

@@ozymandiasultor9480 soon... just 3 days more special operation.. oh nato oh oh.. lolol

@@hithere7547 You medication is showing lol.

@@Fngsouth special medication! : _ D

@@hithere7547 Sorry to hear that,what type of medication are you taking ? and for how long?

The S-400 uses 6 types of missiles, from large with a large warhead to small with a small warhead. In the same way, the corresponding price is small racket small cost, big racket big cost.

No weapons are as expensive as US weapons. The patriot is fake, it missed so many scud missiles in Iraq.

Do not forget russia also has TOR system and Pantzir. For those occasions you just mentioned, cheaper than the s400

Its a mediocre system, but becoming dated and unrelaible now

​@@bikechainmicLol.I smell coping.

yes, ask uk, the US and all, how much it costs to supply arms

Small?😂 The biggest war since WW2 is happening in Europe

The burnt Leopards, Bradley is a slight to behold 🤑🤑🤑🤑

LOL it cant even stop primative drones to hit Moscow LOL

@@Mkby88 you don't know situation on thr ground or where the drones originated. Stop letting propaganda rot your brain.

Two S-400 systems destroyed now 😂😂😂 thats 1.5 billion lost

Russian millitary 🤡 this channel often uses propaganda as source and always talking about super Russian weapons with no real proofs

@@etawil51 No value in this channel. unsub

Russian Propaganda because the weak of mind will believe it.

Plss unsub. If its hard for u to digest truth

Shadow Storm was suppose to be the game changer for the Ukraine counter offensive.. and we all know how that counter offensive went 😂😂😂 *failure like Storm shadow failure*

the ones they show are the dummie shadows that fly before the real shadow to draw any defence

A huge payload is so that when the missile misses the target, the explosion and fragments can hit the missiles. So S -400 can down-storm shadow missiles without leaving small fragments of StormS shadow part.

ALL LIES, THS CHANNEL IS RUSSIAN PROPAGANDA

ever saw stormshadow in action???.... i do...

Thanks for the "wishful thinking", chicken-hawk propaganda. Reality on the battle-front is far different; Ukraine (despite the bravery of its soldiers) has so far proved utterly incapable of successfully staging an effective counter-offensive, and its forces are being slowly degraded in an unwinnable war of attrition against the much larger and better-supplied Russian army (which certainly does have its own shortcomings... though these are vastly exaggerated in the rabidly pro-Ukraine, Western mainstream media). "Send in the kitties!" screamed the pro-Ukraine propagandists. So they did. You can expect to see a lot of Leopard 2 tanks on display in Moscow, real soon now.

What world are you living in? Or are you just being sarcastic?

Posters like warmachine76 still making retarded comments etc, etc...

Are you crazy?

@@NeilPBrady that's sarcasm 😂

Ya west is the best derp a det derp a det....shut up

You make a good point here, it does seem more likely that Russia has shot down a lot more than just 29 storm shadows.

Lmao...yeah. Thats true just cause you said it

@@abdulmuizz4887 No, it's just what I get from multiple sources.

How many have you seen hit Russian targets ? 3 I’ve seen them hit

😂😂😂😂

and yet they are ready for the War-Monger bullies..

please tell me ur drugdealer lol

rapists fight thousands of police officers. does this make them any good ? russia is a terrorist state.

The West has given Ukraine largely obsolete weaponry, and yet Ukraine continues to hold their ground with "mighty" Russia! Lol Your nation is a shadow of its former self... China is the great rival to America now.

And the Russians are burning through their missile stockpiles. They can't build more because of the Western chip embargo.

I feel like in this situation Russia has the advantage they have more s400 missiles than Ukraine has storm shadows

F.Y.I. that 29 out of 27.

@@gugulethuzangwa8358 The West has the microchips to build more missiles...Russia doesn't.

I mean if you are only in the main-stream media you obviously won't know that. The Storm Shadow was shot down a lot more than it actually impacted the battlefield. It's the same with all the NATO equipment they got, none proofed to be a deciding factor or even better than what the russians already have deployed. That's also why the Ukrainian offensive was so miserable that even the allies are now very careful about ukrainians perspective.

John that is typical of you chatting such crap

@@Nokamigg This is the main-stream media, its just the russian version.

Aye, it most definitely was shot down, but it killed two of Russians' generals. It's wrecked havoc on Russian troops

clear is it? either the Storm shadow is garbage because of a malfunction - or the Russians shot it down. Either way, you NAFO narrative is crumbling garbage-brain.

Cope more, there is footage of Pantsir-S1 shooting down the missile.

@@milutinke LOL, you said it was S400... now it is magically Pantsir-S1, and there is a video... I notice you provide no link to your video. Why is that exactly? I am not going to say that it is impossible to shoot down any missile so I have nothing to "cope" over Boris.

Pantisers or ew systems

@@ali-haider5788 OK, so first it is S400, then it's Pantiser, now it's EW systems... got it. LOL, I am totally convinced now. 🤣

Cope

Lol coping hard

@@bazz6490ahaha I checked and it's exacy the number of downed stormshadows CLAIMED by Russia. Cope yourself. Everyone is exaggerating. I only believe verified and photographed kills. Russia only has less than 10.

cope with it

cope

This is nothing new, so don't get upset, when one side comes up with an advanced weapon, the other side works hard to figure out how to defeat it. It's called - the Arms Race.

Adding to the point made below, many times Russia has lied about their understanding of any of our tech. It’s pretty safe to say they didn’t get much from this(if they actually decided to study it) which takes a lot of resources that could have been used. Running a supply train backwards isn’t as easy as forwards.

@@grojunge2449 one thing to remember - never underestimate your enemy.

Storm Shadow's replacement was being worked on over 20 years ago.

*Yes*

*Patriot is the biggest crap of western weapons!*

There’s no F35 or HIMARS in Syria 🇸🇾

Indeed.

It intercepted himars in ukr. And F35 operates out of range of S400 to launch long range cruise missiles directly from within israles airspace. Obviously rus can't fire at them since it will cause diplomatic issues (rus and isr relationship is relatively warm/not enemies), just as isarles will not fire at rus equipment/military compound.

S400 is airburst interceptor not a collision/impact interceptor. The fragment of airburst that hits the right spot is enough to cause missile/aircraft to be downed. Missiles like this will explode close to the target, not hit it directly. So a downed missile with low damage on it is not strange, although a bit rare.

@@far_centrista hit from fragments would pepper the target like a shotgun.

@@sid35gb true, depends on the distance and the surface area of the target. The farther it is the more spread out the damage of the pellets, and the less damage it will take.

Well... that is what any missile that shoots down another missile does.

@@joshuaalistair3193 I wasn't talking about the missile but the launcher.

@@joshuaalistair3193 whoosh, he was talking about destroying s-400 missiles while they are still in the launcher.

@@philippbo9050 Oh, I have not heard of too many hits against the S-400 launchers, but I am sure NATO has achieved a view. But... I do know Russia has scored some hits against the Patriot launchers.

Russia has also rendered these missiles useless through electronic jamming leaving them as confused as the people that sent them on an impossible mission

That's exactly what SS does, it's called a bunt manoeuvre.

@@thelmaviaduct That jump back up is to allow the missile seeker to acquire the target I presume?

@@death_parade yes, and a better impact angle for the broach penetrator I'd imagine.

AFAIK S500 complements the S400, doesn't replace it.

Where is Armata?

I never heard from any media even the Western ones that any of the Russian defense systems is performing badly in this war. I heard the opposite. I am not on Russia's side but there are facts.

Anybody can make wise guy quips from behind their computer based on half-digested and sometimes inaccurate information Guess any NATO country can take on Russia on its own, then? Why are we seeing that?

*Patriot is the biggest crap of western weapons!*

There's a video that shows how S400 couldn't shoot down Storm shadow that fly over it

@@SmertVsemKazapam if you do a saturation attack a few will pass, that is how saturation attacks work

the only thing that is stealth is the wodka bottle lol

💯

If you have the right equipment, it is easy to see it, actually.

Ha... considering they're already using the S300 to shoot down apartment buildings it's quite a possibility.

they taked one down?`?? may i ask for proove`?

Which is how you know that 29 shot down claim is BS, as that is exactly what would be done. Oversaturating s-400 as with and air defense system is doable regardless of the system being fired at, that includes Patriot as well. With a stealth missile it would be even easier because of the late warning

They’ll never tell you that

@@charliematts1736 who are 'they'? If any Storm Shadow (Scalp) will be intercepted and it's remnants will be discovered it'll be a reliable proof it was shot down. Now it's just russ propaganda and nothing more. I wouldn't be surprised if one of them will be downed but now the missiles work exceptionally well

storm shadow isnt even very strong compared to other cruisemissles lopl.... but where they fly it rly makes boom.. there is no doubt! : _ D

Yeah it's just like the claim patriot missile shot down hypersonic Kinzal . 😅

​@@mathewca4763only that it did. 7 Kinzals which Russians knew and Putler fired and arrested 3 of the scientists. 1 Storm Shadow that crashed is what Russia is showing, they can't shoot it down!

@@mathewca4763 Kinzal is just a ballistic missile, it nothing special to take out literally what patriot was built for. Now if it was Avenguard, that would be impressive. You do get that almost all ballistic missiles go over Mach 5?

US anounced the delivery of an radar and 2 launchers of the patriot system. So an incomplete battery. That led to the conclusion it didn't actually shot down the dagger. Was destroyed by it.

@@sebastianlupPatriot уничтожил кинжал собой, нуу можно сказать что сбил 😂

it was for the producer of it 3 milion for one goodness me

It is. It is being delivered up the Russians arse.
