So far, it has not been possible to shoot down Russian Onyx missiles, because they were originally designed to strike ships and, before being hit, go down to the water, leaving the zone of Ukrainian air defense.
This was told by the speaker of the Air Force Yuri Ignat.
“Despite the fact that the main purpose of the Onyxes is to destroy surface targets, the Russians also use them against ground targets. After all, all the missiles they have in service can be upgraded. And the complexity of the Onyx damage lies in the fact that before entering the the target, it goes down to the water, without entering the zone of destruction of our air defense systems,” Ignat said on the air of the telethon.
