Russian invasion of Ukraine

On a post that starts with “Russia said”, the rest of the post can just be ignored I’m afraid.

Based on that statement it looks like five got through.

If Russia does anything in terms of retaliation against the US it will be something small, probably in the Syria area of the world where there have been rising tensions between Russia and US for a while and Russia has been playing games with the US testing boundries etc.

Russia said it has shot down 4 of the 5 fired Atacms missiles.

Five missiles were shot down and one damaged, with its fragments causing a fire at a military facility in the region, it said.

Ukraine uses US long-range missiles for first time, says Russia

Six missiles were used in a strike on an ammunitions depot on Tuesday morning, Moscow says.

LOL.

Russia *always* claims that damage from Ukraine is from "debris" from shot down drones or missiles.

IIRC that included the huge ammo dumps that went up not so long ago.

You don't seem to have noticed that Russian propaganda is... ...propaganda.

As I understand it, Russia lacks the capability to shoot down this sort of missile at all (they're supersonic rockets, not subsonic cruise missiles). Could be wrong though.

That can’t be right because a Kremlin spokesperson said the other day that they would be shooting all these missiles down anyway…

I'd seen things like this before.

ATACMS Obliterates Russian Air Defense System As It Desperately Tries To Defend Itself

The video shows the vain efforts of the Russian S300/S400 to engage incoming ATACMS missiles, before being spectacularly knocked out.

Sounds like something posted every season on the Title Race thread…

...or in the match thread (though I'm only going on what others say, as I don't venture there any more).
