    The Pentagon confirmed that a Russian Kinzhal missile flying at hypersonic speed was shot down from a Patriot anti-aircraft missile system.

    .

    In particular, this was said by the Pentagon speaker, Brigadier General Patrick Ryder.

    I can confirm they shot down a Russian missile with Patriot missile defenses. As you know, this system is part of a wide range of air defense assets provided by the United States and the international community to Ukraine,” the speaker noted.

    He added that the US and partners will continue to “quickly provide ground-based air defenses and munitions to help Ukraine control its sovereign skies and protect its citizens from Russia.”

    The Kinzhal was launched last week during another massive Russian missile attack.

    Previously, Patriot systems were used against conventional ballistic missiles, and the ability to shoot down hypersound was purely theoretical.

    Although the Ukrainian military found the wreckage of this missile, the authorities were slow to reveal details until the information about it appeared in other sources, since the missile was considered unbreakable.

    After that, the information was confirmed by the commander of the air forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Lieutenant General Nikolai Oleshchuk.

    Yes, we shot down the “Dagger”, which has no analogues! This happened during the night attack on May 4 in the sky of the Kiev region. The X-47 missile was launched by the MiG-31K from the territory of Russia, he wrote.

    Recall, Politico, citing sources, writes that the United States does not plan to provide Ukraine with long-range missiles, since the UK will do so. The day before, WP assumed that we were talking about Storm Shadow air-launched cruise missiles. At the same time, the Biden administration will continue to provide Patriot air defenses, ammunition, and armored vehicles.
