SBU, Navy destroy enemy air defense complex Triumf near Yevpatoria – source
The military counterintelligence of the SBU and the Ukrainian Naval Forces hit the Russian Triumf air defense complex near Yevpatoria in Crimea on Thursday night, a source in the SBU told Interfax-Ukraine.
"Tonight, the military counterintelligence of the SBU and the Ukrainian Navy carried out a unique special operation near Yevpatoria – they destroyed the Russian Triumf air defense system worth $1.2 billion," the agency's interlocutor said.
According to the source, drones and Neptune missiles worked effectively on the target.
"First, the SBU drones hit the 'eyes' of the complex – radars and antennas, and after disabling the radar stations of the Navy units, two Neptune cruise missiles hit the S300/400 Triumf launch complexes," the SBU source said.
