Presidential Advisor on the Development of Technological Areas of Defense, Serhiy "Flash" Beskrestnov, explained why Russian Iskanders hit bridges quite accurately, especially in conditions of total suppression of navigation by Ukraine.
“During alarms, it is difficult for the Iskander to hit the target with an accuracy of up to a meter. The inertial system will not provide such accuracy. And our enemy wants to hit. Therefore, the Iskanders use optical-type homing heads 9E436, 9B918 or expensive heads with radar guidance 9B918,” wrote “Flash” on its TV channel.
According to him, as the warhead falls downward, a radar scan of the area takes place for several seconds, and a correction is introduced into the missile’s guidance system.
Samples of several of these radar-guided warheads are shown on the War & Sanctions website launched by the GUR .
Previously, "The Flash" reported that a large-scale electronic warfare system was deployed over the capital to protect the city from Russian Shahed-type jet drones.
According to him, Russian Geran-5 jet drones have already reached speeds of 1,000 km/h during certain maneuvers .
