There were 2 Pantsirs destroyed by Israelis in that video. The first Pantsir shown at the start of the video fired 2 missiles.
Just because Israel Destroyed a Pantsir it Doesn't mean that the Pantsir Air defense system is useless. Till date the Israelis have Destroyed just 2-3 Pantsir Air defense systems.

In this video of Israel destroying Pantsir, I believe the Pantsir was already Jammed/being Jammed and Blinded by EW(Electronic Warfare) systems which protected the Israeli Missile from the Pantsir's Missiles.

You mean this Pantsir that Israelis destroy routinely will stop AARGM-ER?



Note that the AARGM-ER has twice the speed of the latest AARGM which is touted to be at Mach 2, so AARGM-ER is Mach 4 at terminal phase.

Coming to this Video you have Shared of Israel Destroying a Pantsir Air defense system ,let me make some points here.

This Particular Syrian Pantsir S1 which was hit by the Israeli missile in this video appears to be in a stowed position, target tracking radar turned off hence it could not respond to the Attack by Israel.

This Pantsir-S1 was hit by Israel when it was reloading after successfully foiling the 1st Israeli attack.

After looking at your post history, You need to come out of that Cave of yours and stop praising These American Weopons so much. You need to stop with your biasness towards anything Russian!

But still chunk of ukranian airforce is working
If that is the case, why has the Russian armoured column north of Kiev - spread along 50+km of road - not been attacked from the air? Apparently the ground is wet, restricting non-tracked vehicles to using the road. Just bombing the road would likely paralyse the column.

to be fair, all of ukraine air field probably already ruined at this point due to cruise missile and ballistic missile strike. And Ukraine themselves only has like 10 UAV to take off from road. The hardest part for the Russian is not in defeating Ukraine army/airforce. The hardest part is to maintain the puppet government in Ukraine and dealing with guerrilla warfare. This has great potential to turn to another Afghanistan only with shorter time since the Ruble already lost like 30% value in 3 days

No usable airfields would explain no air strike against an armoured column that has been stationary for 2 days.

Yes, invading Ukraine or conducting a 'special military operation' as the Kremlin wants it to be called has not been good for Russia financially. Unfortunately this afternoon it cost the investment I was about to make in a company operating in Russia - not that losing me will break the Russian economy. Anyway, pulled it. Why should a country that invades its neighbour, creating all the misery Russia is currently creating, receive my funding?

Oops, forgot - where Ukraine is concerned it is forbidden to refer to there being an 'invasion' or 'war' in the media in Russia. Sorry about that. Told the truth twice in one paragraph.

How was the performance of Pantsir in the current hostilities?
I saw a few posts which said BT2 was shot down by Pantsir.

Why there is no role for S 400 in ukranian war
It has already been used in Ukraine-Russia war Already and has Officially been Combat Proven by shooting down Ukrainian Assets.

It shot down a Ukrainian SU-27 and MI-8 helicopter on 25th February and 14th April 2022 Respectively.

So according to you, 1971 war was improper invasion by India?


But of course, invasion of Iraq was alright since the invasion was done by world bully thousands of kms away from its own borders. But then what about invasion of Grenada and Panama? Oh, those were just insignificant nations with no white-skinned population. Perhaps invasion Serbia would be a matter worthy to meet your standard? No? Alright, then perhaps we can look into Ukraine itself then where Democratically elected President was thrown out by manufactured coup d'tat midwifed by CIA that resulted into humanitarian crisis of Russian speaking citizens of Ukraine. No, that would also not meed your standard.

So long the standard is not set by CNN, obviously it won't satisfy you!

they are taking there sweet time eradicating neo-nazis, a country will be easier to control with the right puppets especially when every Ukrainian civilians is saying their own military attacks them according to patrick lancaster videos. the people already their goverment is inept if they more poor than kosovo GDP wise prior to the war starting. Might as well use the countries resources and and move your financial assets to China.
