The other day, the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense showed a video in which they filmed an operation by intelligence officers in the Kursk region of the Russian Federation. There, the radio engineering position of the Russian occupiers was amazed.
As experts told Defense Express, the Russians located their radar stations near one of the settlements of Dmitriev - it is located about 60 km from the border with Ukraine. Probably, the GUR fighters worked at night, and used attack drones as a means of destruction.
The damage suffered by Russian systems is difficult to assess based on personnel. However, at the very least, precious equipment of these systems was damaged. In particular, during the operation the 55Zh6 Nebo radar station was hit. It is noted that the Nebo family of meter-range radars was created back in Soviet times and was subsequently modernized in the Russian Federation. There are versions for air defense troops and ground forces.
“The basic version of the 55Zh6 “Sky” radar for air defense troops has been supplied to air defense forces since 1986. Designed to detect, recognize and determine the coordinates and track air targets, including aircraft. In the basic version, the viewing area is 600 km (maximum 1200 km), the range for determining the coordinates of an aircraft type target at an altitude of 300 m is 65 km, 10,000 m - 300 km, 20,000 m - more than 400 km. The accuracy in range is 400-500 m, in height - 750-850 m," the experts explained .
Since 2020, the Russian Air Defense Forces have been supplied with a deep modernization of the Nebo-T radar system. According to propagandists, it has achieved greater accuracy in tracking aerodynamic and ballistic targets within a radius of up to 600 km.
Also, the Main Intelligence Directorate showed footage of the destruction of probably the 64L6 Gamma-S1 radar. As the experts explained, this is a mobile three-dimensional centimeter-range radar designed for a circular or sector view of the airspace for air defense systems. It was put into service in 2003.
“This radar must determine the coordinates of the target, its affiliation, class, and provide information to air defense systems. The range of the viewing area is from 10 to 300 km, the Accuracy is 50 m in range and 400 m in height,” noted Defense Express.
