Modified Russian ballistic missiles have begun to bypass the radars of American Patriot air defense systems. This was reported by Wall Street Journal.
The American system is experiencing increasing difficulties due to the emergence of more maneuverable ballistic missiles in Russia.
The source also acknowledged that Patriot radars have failed to detect Russian missiles in recent months.
The article states that Russia continues to improve ballistic missiles, making them less vulnerable to existing missile defense systems.
Military analyst Evgeny Damantsev clarified that the upgrade of the Iskander-M missile system concerned the loading of additional anti-aircraft maneuvering modes into the guidance system of the 9M723-1 ballistic missiles, as well as exiting to dive modes at angles of more than 83 degrees at altitudes of 30 - 25 km.
Earlier www1.ru reported that the flagship of the Russian Navy, the cruiser "Admiral Kuznetsov," may be scrapped.
