In early 2023, the Ukrainian Defense Forces destroyed the first 5P85SM2-01 launcher with 5V55R missiles of the S-400 air defense missile system. Almost half a year later, they were able to eliminate the 55K6E combat control center for the first time.

This time, there was information about the destruction of another 5P85SM2-01 launcher. Along with it, the Russian army lost the 92N6A multifunctional radar station, which is part of the anti-aircraft missile system. This is the first confirmed case of radar destruction.

The cost of the S-400 is approximately $2.5 billion. The Ukrainian army could also receive such an anti-aircraft missile system, but Turkey refused to transfer it, despite pressure from the United States. By the way, Turkey itself was left without fifth-generation F-35 fighters due to the purchase of the C-400.
