Russian "Bandrol" missile will not be hit by NASAMS SAM system due to an important characteristic

The Western system is capable of intercepting domestic ammunition only when deployed on a lattice tower

The newest Russian low-observable tactical cruise missile long-range S8000 "Bandrol" is capable of bypassing the area of operation of the anti-aircraft missile complex NASAMS due to its high speed of up to 650 km/h. This was pointed out by a military expert Evgeny Damantsev.

According to him, the missile is equipped with a small-sized solid-propellant SW800Pro-A95, providing a flight speed of up to 650 km/h. Radio navigation module with interference-protected GLONASS-/GPS-antenna "Kometa-M8" is responsible for protection from electronic warfare interference.

Multifunctional radar AN/MPQ-64F1 Sentinel of the NASAMS/-2 anti-aircraft missile system is capable of detecting "Bandrol" missiles under the condition of deployment at a dominant height or a lattice or universal tower.
