Ukraine has doggedly targeted advanced Russian air-defense assets positioned around Crimea.
Russia has moved parts of its long-anticipated S-500 air-defense system to annexed Crimea, Kyiv has said, putting its combat-untested, highly valuable and scarce new system in possible range of Ukrainian strikes.Lieutenant General Kyrylo Budanov, the head of Ukraine's GUR military intelligence agency, told Ukrainian media on Wednesday that Russia had placed components of an S-500 anti-aircraft missile system in Crimea. The system is still 'experimental,' he added.
Russian media reports suggested in fall 2021 that the first S-500 had been deployed around Moscow.Persistent Ukrainian strikes on Russia's ground-based air defenses in Crimea, including the S-500's predecessor, the S-400, have strained Russia's protection of key assets on the peninsula.
