Ukrainian kamikaze drones destroyed Russian Tor-M2 and S-300VM SAMs worth tens of millions of dollars (video)
Following the heavy flamethrower system TOS-1A “Solntsepek”, the Security Service of Ukraine used kamikaze drones to hit two anti-aircraft missile systems at once. Kamikaze drones have once again demonstrated their effectiveness.
This time, the Security Service of Ukraine used unmanned aerial vehicles to destroy the launchers of the Tor-M2 and S-300VM air defense systems. The cost of the first air defense system is more than $20 million.

The price of the second air defense system is not specified. However, it is known that it was adopted at the beginning of the 21st century, which means that it is a fairly new anti-aircraft missile system. It is an improved version of the Soviet-made S-300V air defense system.
Last year, Ukraine received several barrage munitions, including Switchblade 300, Phoenix Ghost, and Warmate. However, the Security Service does not specify which drones were used to attack the Tor-M2 and S-300VM.
