8 Most Powerful Air Defense Systems of Ukraine
In the past, Ukraine heavily depended on Soviet ear defense systems like the S-300. But things have changed rapidly. Ensuring the protection of their airspace has become their highest priority. As a result, the West is providing Ukraine more sophisticated air defense systems to shore up its defenses. Let's look at these system the Ukrainian forces are operating to protect their skies and people. The S-300 is a long-range surface-to-air missile system. Since its introduction in 1978, it has undergone several upgrades. The S-300 is designed to engage and destroy aircraft, helicopters, cruise missiles, and ballistic missiles. Developed by the U.S. the Patriot is a widely recognized and highly capable medium-to-long range air defense system. It was first introduced in 1981 and has since undergone several upgrades. It was designed to engage and destroy a wide array of airborne threats, ranging from drones to ballistic missiles. The Patriot is equipped with sophisticated sensors, electronic countermeasures and anti-jamming capabilities, to enhance its effectiveness against electronic warfare threats. Ukraine has incorporated Patriot missile systems into its air defense strategy as part of efforts to protect its skies from various threats. The NASAMS is a short-to-medium range defense system, armed with three launchers that can carry a total of 18 missiles. It was developed in 1998 by U.S. and Norwegian companies, and it is the same system that protects the airspace around Washington, D.C. One of the notable features of the system is its ability to launch the aim-120 Amraam, which is originally used by fighter jets. Ukraine acquired Nasams systems from the US, Canada, Norway, and Lithuania. The German Iris-T shares similarities with Nasams, functioning as a lower-tier air defense system. Manufactured in southern Germany, the Iris-T is a relatively new system that has undergone development since the 90s. Germany has made a commitment to supply a total of 8 batteries to Ukraine. Currently 2 batteries have been delivered, and the remaining will be supplied once ready. The Hawk is relatively older air defense system. With a missile range of 22 miles, it can engage targets at shorter distances. Each launcher carries 3 missiles allowing for multiple engagements. While no longer used in the United States, several U.S. allies, including Spain, still utilize the Hawk and have even supplied it to Ukraine. Additionally, the U.S. has retrieved stored Hawks to support Ukraine. The Avenger is a highly mobile air defense system renowned for its impressive features. It possesses a missile range of 5 miles, enabling it to effectively engage targets within its operational reach. Germany authorized the transfer of 52 Gepard anti-aircraft vehicles to Ukraine, with 34 delivered so far while 18 are pledged. The US will procure 30 more for Ukraine. The Vampire system, a laser-guided missile launcher, has been committed by the US. It offers a missile range of 7.5mi. Designed to be portable, it can be mounted on various pickup-truck beds, including non-tactical vehicles. It’s Installation is relatively quick, requiring only two hours with the assistance of two operators. However, once operational, the Vampire system can be operated by a single person.

...and it's not just about "distance", but more importantly about "accuracy" to destroy targets !!
S-300 HAS to launch MULTIPLE rockets to increase it's probability of hitting SOMETHING ! lol
Excellent info
Thanks Sam & And Crew of Grid 88. 🇺🇸

Thanks for your feedback.
You forgot older soviet SAMs. BUKm1, TOR, OSA. All those are very good SAMs but problem for Ukraine is that they don't have anymore missiles for them, including missiles for S-300. West sent some Sea Sparrow missiles that can be used for BUK, but it would be a nice that west could develop missiles for S-300, because there are still about 150-200 launchers available for Ukraine, and S-300 is still capable as Patriot

They did modify patriot missiles to fire from s300. Hawk has a range of 50 miles upgraded. Half the range of s300

Numbers of these systems needed to be increased. 20-30 even 50 units are not enough to cover thousands of miles. What the fuck is 30 Gerards going to do over 1000 miles of war zone? They may help but definitely don’t cover enough ground. In reality, they need at least 200.

Yes the numbers are low.
to be honest, none of these data for SAM's make much sense. Since each uses at least 2-3 different missiles. Giving them each different ranges and parameters depending on missile. Depending what you load into each of these the capabilities of system change greatly.
good air defense is made by the United States and Europe of the current to increase their number for Ukraine

Even the S300 is better than the Patriot and they are trying to make it the best in the world 🤭 No point making comparison to the S400, as this system is ages ahead of the Patriot. The only system capable of intercepting intercontinental and hypersonic missiles so far die its long range. Russia, stay strong 💪

All lies. Even they are well aware of the whole situation and the fact that the world is not believing them. But every country which is in a war does same. They are trying to motivate their citizens to stay in the country, as well as the soldiers to fight and not to evade. Downing kinzhals was the biggest lie since the war started. If the Patriot is so effective, why in the meantime the USA and EU started with a project where they are developing an anti hypersonic missile system? This system defends most NATO countries, the USA couldn't afford one more time the world to see how ineffective it is.
