Ukraine damaged one of Russia’s most treasured air-defense system in a drone attack, according to multiple reports.

Using multiple strike drones, the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) damaged a Russian S-400 Triumph anti-aircraft system on Wednesday, The Kyiv Post reported on Wednesday, citing an intelligence source.

The SBU source did not elaborate on the extent of damage done, though Reuters reported that the system’s radar was affected.

The attack occurred at night time inside mainland Russia, near the southwestern city of Belgorod, according to Ukrinform and Reuters.

    If they are able to take out S-400s now with drones, #Ruzzia is completely fucked when the F-16s start showing up.

      Unfortunately there will still be too many MANPADs to deal with, but F-16s will definitely help.
