The formations of the Kiev regime are currently using fairly large and slow-moving drones based on ultralight aircraft.
At the same time, according to open data released at the Army-2015 forum, the newest version of the Tunguska M1 self-propelled anti-aircraft missile and cannon is equipped with a new sight with a thermal imaging channel and the ability to automatically track air targets.

This allows you to see flying objects better at night and in adverse weather conditions. Therefore, it can be assumed that the Ukrainian flying kamikazes would not be a big problem for the upgraded Tunguska. In addition, they also have traditional radar stations.
The Russian air defense systems are armed with eight missiles and two 30 mm double-barreled machine guns. In terms of firepower, they surpass the German "Cheetahs", which are in service with the Armed Forces of Ukraine, used just to combat drones.

As in the case of the Shilki, the advantage of the Tunguska is the presence of more all-terrain tracked chassis, which, compared with wheeled ones, are less afraid of rough terrain.
