Russian Zircon missiles do not adequately perform in combat – Kyiv Forensic Expertise Institute
Ukrainian air defense can shoot these missiles down, as one of the fragments hit on March 25 clearly shows that it was downed by the Patriot system.
The expert also said the missile warhead contains no more than 40 kilograms of explosives.
The Air Force spokesman Illia Yevlash confirmed that Ukrainian forces have the necessary means to down Russian anti-ship hypersonic missiles ZM22 Zircon.
On February 7, Russian forces launched various types of cruise missiles and attack drones at Ukraine, and about 20 missiles were shot down near and over Kyiv.
Experts from the Kyiv Scientific Research Institute stated that this was the first time Russia had used the Zircon against Ukraine.
