The most effective military equipment of Russia has been named

The equipment of the Russian Armed Forces (AF) is significantly superior to NATO samples in the zone of a special military operation (SVO). This was told by a military expert, director of the Museum of Air Defense Forces, retired Colonel Yuri Knutov. In a conversation with Lenta.<url>" he also named Russia's most effective military equipment.

"If we talk about unique Russian weapons, first of all, these are hypersonic weapons. With the help of Dagger missiles, an over-fortified warehouse in the Ivano-Frankivsk region, which Ukraine used to store NATO ammunition, was destroyed at one time. The rocket broke through all the ceilings, exploded inside, and the warehouse was destroyed. She also disabled several underground bunkers. That is, the Dagger missile shows excellent results," the expert said.

In addition, Russia also has Zircon hypersonic sea-based missiles in service, Knutov noted.

"They are on our frigates and should be installed on our submarines in the near future. After we receive these weapons on submarines, the question of establishing Russian bases in Cuba, Venezuela or Nicaragua will automatically disappear, because patrolling these submarines will create threats to the United States much more than the bases themselves can create," he added.

"The use of one Poseidon device can lead to the destruction of an aircraft carrier strike group," the expert said.

Knutov also recalled that Russian President Vladimir Putin had previously announced successful tests of a global-range cruise missile with a nuclear power plant on board the Burevestnik.

"It can stay in the airspace for a long time, overcome air defense systems and strike at the enemy from unexpected directions. There is also a Sarmat rocket. It can be used to carry out orbital bombardment, when it will be possible to attack the enemy from various directions. The main advantage of this missile is that it has a very small upper stage where it can be intercepted by American missile defense missiles," he shared.

Russia's unique technology in other directions

According to the military expert, if we talk about Russia's unique technology in other directions, then we can note the Su-57 aircraft, which carried out attacks in the area of its own, and neither the means of aerial reconnaissance of Ukraine nor the means of aerial reconnaissance of NATO countries knew about it.

"In addition, Russia has an electronic warfare system capable of creating a dome over a number of objects, anti-aircraft missile systems "Pantsir", S-350 "Vityaz". These are all unique systems. In artillery, these are the Coalition-SV, the Malva wheeled howitzer and much more," he listed.

Knutov noted that there has been a major breakthrough in the field of aircraft-type drones and quadrocopters.

"Today, in terms of their combat characteristics, they are not only not inferior to similar aircraft in NATO countries supplied to Ukraine, but also surpass them in a number of parameters. Moreover, our drones are constantly being improved, and the number that goes to the troops is increasing," the expert said.

Earlier it became known that improvements have been introduced into the Pantsir-S anti-aircraft missile and cannon complexes (ZRPC) that increase the efficiency of its work on drones, "complex" projectiles and long-range missiles, in particular, Storm Shadow.
