No defense against HIMARS ammunition currently exists

Jul 12, 2022

The fact is that HIMARS does not use missiles, but rockets with a range of up to 80 km.

Military expert Oleg Zhdanov told this in an interview with TSN.

"To date, there is only one air defense system in the world that is capable of intercepting rockets - it is the Iron Dome. Therefore, no S-300 and S-400 are suitable for intercepting such missiles.

And also considering the fact that the munition is correctable - which means it can change its flight trajectory because its trajectory is not mathematical. Therefore, there are currently no means of countering HIMARS," Oleg Zhdanov explained.
