Ukraine’s SSO special operations forces destroyed advanced Russian radar “Kasta-2E2” with drone (video)

Ukrainian Special Operations Force (SSO) reported that they have successfully targeted and destroyed a sophisticated Russian radar system, known as “Kasta-2E2,” utilizing a drone. The SSO shared a video of the strike, but didn’t specify where exactly the attack took place.

The Ukrainian military regularly publish the footage of attacks on Russian air defense assets. Weakening the Russian air defenses may be one of Ukraine’s major objectives before the advent of the first F-16 fighter jets, expected sometime this year.

The “Kasta-2E2” radar, a state-of-the-art tri-coordinate mobile radar system, is particularly designed for comprehensive airspace control and the detection of airborne targets at extremely low altitudes. Its capabilities include tracking and providing detailed flight data to anti-aircraft and air force control systems, which are crucial for intercepting enemy aircraft.
