Prepared to meet F-16: experts have found out why Russian C-400 launches "pacifiers"

Russian SCRs shoot missiles without a warhead to calibrate the systems, identifying the most effective places for the maximum range of F-16 aircraft. Ukraine is still waiting for the supply of multi-purpose F-16 Fighting Falcon fighters, but the Russian army is already preparing to reflect their attacks. In the area of ​​occupied Crimea, launches of anti-aircraft complexes C-400 "Triumph", which did not carry the warhead, were noticed. This was reported on April 5 by Bulgarian Military Viewers.

The authors of the publication with reference to their sources write that recently in the area of ​​Dzhanko, Russian SPRC C-400 launched "rocket-desert" launches. As it turned out, the invaders thus calibrate their systems, bringing their aircraft to a potential threat from Western aircraft. "We needed some time to understand their purpose. In the end, it was found out that they calibrate their missile and radar systems of the C-400 air defense complex.

Purpose: to determine the most effective places for maximum range of F-16 aircraft to keep them on Distance from the front line and the most important logistics centers, " - quoted journalists of the word interlocutor. The C-400 SPRs are based on four main components: radar complex with a range of detection up to 600 km, command-dispatching center, starting installations, as well as rockets-interceptors of different types.

The radar complex is able to track up to 300 goals at the same time, providing the system with a full inspection of airspace. The command-dispatching center studies radar data, identifies potential threats and controls rockets. But the main power of the C-400 lies in the interceptors of the SPR. There are rockets in service with the complex: each of these missiles is methodically developed for a certain type of targets and threats-from stealth-frames and UAV to winged and ballistic missiles.

When the radar identifies a potential threat, the information about it is coming into the command-dispatching center. The threat is then identified and determined by its priority. After deciding to defeat the target, they choose the appropriate rocket - it uses data from the command center, which are updated in real time, to intercept and destroy the target.
