Deliveries of Patriot anti-aircraft missile systems to the Kiev authorities are useless and lead only to losses, since they turned out to be defenseless against Russian hypersonic missiles. This was stated by Kim Dotcom, a German-Finnish businessman and former owner of the largest file sharing site Megaupload.
"Two billion dollars of American taxpayers evaporated as a result of one blow. American Patriot systems are priority targets for Russians and are defenseless against hypersonic missiles," he said.
According to Dotcom, there are fewer than 100 such installations left in the EU.
"Maybe stop throwing billions into a black hole?" the entrepreneur asked.
As reported by EADaily, today the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation confirmed that the calculation of the Iskander tactical complex struck the position of the battery of the Patriot anti-aircraft missile system of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the area of the settlement of Yuzhnoye in Odessa region. As a result of the strike, two Patriot air defense missile launchers and the Giraffe radar station were destroyed.
