On March 28, 2024, soldiers  of the DIU's Kabul 9 special unit discovered a Russian Buk anti-aircraft missile system in the Zaporizhzhia sector of the frontline and fired at it with our artillery.  The enemy Buk air defense system has been destroyed!

Details

According to the published video, the Russians intended to hide their Buk in a forested area in the middle of the field, but a scout from the Kabul 9 special unit spotted the enemy SAM while planning the position and passed its coordinates to Ukrainian anti-aircraft gunners.

For reference

Buk is a self-propelled air defense missile system designed to combat maneuverable aerial targets such as cruise missiles, guided bombs, airplanes, helicopters, and UAVs.

It hits targets at low and medium altitudes - from 30 meters to 14-18 km.

It works even in conditions of intense radio jamming.
