Russia fired four missiles in a row on May 25 at Ukraine's Madasic engine manufacturing plant in Zaporozhye, and according to online images at the time, smoke billowed from the scene and should have been damaged. However, in the past few days, according to relevant media reports, the attack on Madasic is intact, and the four missiles that attacked it have not been hit.
According to reports, one of four missiles was intercepted, one hit the cinema and café of a shopping mall in Madasic, one hit the bank opposite Madasic, and one hit a factory building three kilometers away from Madasic, which is the manufacturing workshop of the Ivchenko Progressive Design Institute, and there are reports that dozens of houses in the Ivchenko Progressive Design Bureau have been damaged.
According to Ukrainian media reports, there are three reasons, one is that the Russian missile is not good enough, the second is that it is interfered with, and the third is that the Russian army has mistaken the coordinates. Personally, I'm afraid not.
First of all, since the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, the land base has Iskander, pickaxe agate, air-based dagger, and sea-based caliber, although there have also been deviations in hitting the target, but not all four missile launches have been lost. According to reports, the missile that attacked Madasic was a sea-based launch, that is, a caliber cruise missile, which has always had a good reputation.
Secondly, Russia has its own Gronas navigation system, which will not fly there without knowing the missile after losing GPs, and so far, it has not heard of similar equipment in Ukraine.
Hit the shopping mall, the damage is not big
The structure of the shopping mall has not been greatly damaged,
The third point is a bit interesting, the Russian army got the coordinates wrong, which is somewhat gray humor. Hitting the cinema and the bank is not explained in no way, but it is not impossible for Ukraine to put equipment in private houses, and it is not impossible for the cinema and the bank to be transformed into workshops. Russia suspects it was used by the Ukrainian army as an ammunition depot or as fuel and lubrication.
The most interesting thing is the manufacturing workshop of the Yvchenko Progressive Design Institute that hits. Let's take a look at the Ivchenko Progressive Design Bureau.
It is one of the main engine design bureaus in the former Soviet Union in terms of aero engines, and its main products are: high-thrust turbofans for transport aircraft and passenger aircraft, such as the D-18T used in the An-124 and An-224, the D-36 used in the An-72 and Yak-42 and its modern variant D-436. Is it very familiar, is it the same as The Product of Machici.
In fact, the Ivchenko Progressive Design Bureau produces more than that, as well as small-thrust turbofan engines, such as the AI-25 used by the Czech L-39 and the Chinese Coach-8, the YAK-130 and the AI-222 used by the Chinese Coach-10 (also known as the L-15). The turboshaft used for helicopters, such as the D-136 of the Mi-26. It also produces turboprop engines such as the AI-20 for the Il-18, the AI-24 for the An-26, and the D-27 for the An-70.
So it seems that this workshop is being played.
In fact, Madasic is only an engine manufacturing enterprise, and there are other people responsible for the design, including the Ivchenko Progressive Design Bureau and the Klimov Design Bureau. Under the Soviet system, the manufacturing plant was responsible for process design, quality control and after-sales support, but did not necessarily have a grasp of the design and test data. So Madasic is not a complete aircraft manufacturing company.
From the above, we can see that the Russian army may have attacked the cinema, the bank, the Ivchenko Progressive Design Bureau, and especially the latter. The one missed shot referred to in the title refers to the one that was intercepted, and the other three shots hit.
It has been a long time since the war began, and Madasic has never been attacked, although the Russian army is only one step away from it, and if there is no definite information, Russia will not attack in shopping malls and banks, because Russia also needs this batch of equipment and technicians.
Incidentally, the Ivchenko Progressive Design Bureau now has a manufacturing plant, whether it is related to one of our acquisitions involving Madasic that year — ukraine is not transferring assets — the workshop that russia attacked is said to be a private company.
