Ukrainian military intelligence says its forces destroyed a Russian An-26 military transport aircraft and two high-value radar systems during strikes in Russian-occupied Crimea on December 10–11.
According to the Main Intelligence Directorate of Ukraine’s Ministry of Defence, Russian troops had been preparing the An-26 for takeoff and had already started its engines when the aircraft was hit, Caliber.Az reports.
The masters of Ukraine's special forces unit Prymara struck a filigree blow to the left turboprop, preventing the flight.
As a result of another air raid on the temporarily occupied Crimea, the Prymara also successfully destroyed two expensive radar systems - the 55Zh6M Nebo-M radar and the 64N6E radar hidden in the dome, which served as the “eyes” of the S-300/S-400 complexes.
