In many of Ukraine's counterattacks against Russia, they have targeted Russian positions in Crimea. According to the information disclosed by a number of foreign media on April 18, Ukraine is currently striking at Russia's air defense positions in Crimea, and after destroying the air defense positions, Russia will not be able to carry out air defense combat missions in Crimea, which will also lead to more severe challenges for Russia's other military facilities. After Ukraine obtains the Hippocampus high mobility rocket launcher, these Hippocampus can also complete the launch of various types of missiles, and Ukraine destroyed many sets of S400 long-range anti-aircraft missiles and S300 long-range anti-aircraft missiles of the Russian army in the course of this strike. Information announced from Ukraine shows that at least 3~5 air defense systems have been destroyed, including three launchers of S400 long-range anti-aircraft missiles and a radar installation.
Ukraine used the Seahorse to directly bomb the S400 long-range anti-aircraft missile position, which also made the Russian army's air defense forces lose face, of course, this is not the first time that the S400 long-range anti-aircraft missile has been embarrassed on the battlefield, and it has been reported on the battlefield that the S400 long-range anti-aircraft missile has fired at friendly fighters many times. In addition to being equipped in the combat sequence of the Russian army, the S400 is also equipped with a considerable number of S400 long-range anti-aircraft missiles in the combat sequence of the PLA. This island pointed out that these S400s have made the PLA regret, and said that the PLA was cheated by Russia for a huge amount of money. Because the S400 long-range anti-aircraft missile simply does not reach the strength that Russia advertises. After Ukraine's Seahorse high mobility rocket launcher has just created actual combat results, Taiwan Island also followed up with a test launch of rocket artillery, and the so-called Thunder 2000 rocket launcher developed by Taiwan Island also claims to be able to complete the carrying of a variety of tactical missiles and strike at mainland targets. Now that Taiwan has test-fired the Thunder 2000, I am afraid that it also wants to target the important military facilities of the PLA.
During the annual military exercise codenamed "Thunder Exercise" conducted at the Jiupeng base on Taiwan Island, the 43rd Artillery Command and 58th Artillery Command of the Taiwan Army have dispatched a number of Thunder-2,000 more rocket launchers and carried out continuous firing of MK-15 rockets. The range of the MK-15 rocket is only about 15 km, and if the Thunder 2000 rocket launcher is equipped with the MK-45 rocket, the range is only 45 km, but it is clear that the range of 45 km cannot pose a threat to continental targets. Today, Taiwan is showing off its Thunder-2000 rocket artillery, but the comprehensive combat strength of the Thunder-2000 rocket artillery is also far from the PLA's long-range box-type rocket artillery? Does the destruction of the S400 long-range air defense missile mean that the PLA is also in trouble? The War Research Institute believes that the PLA is not worried at all, because the PLA still has a considerable number of Hongqi-9 air defense systems.
In recent years, China's military exercises, most of the display of domestic air defense weapons, the Hongqi-9 air defense missile has a stronger ability to resist electromagnetic interference, compared with the poor performance of the S400 long-range air defense missile, the war research believes that the domestic Hongqi-9 air defense missile will not disappoint on the battlefield, even if Taiwan Island uses the Seahorse high mobility rocket launcher to the mainland for a period of time in the future, then the PLA can also use the first strike to respond to Taiwan.
On the one hand, the PLA's air defense system has been localized and has a stronger anti-jamming capability, and on the other hand, the PLA's long-range rocket artillery can also strike at the source of the Taiwan army's rocket artillery positions. Text/Iris
