Foreign Policy magazine added that it is unlikely that Ukraine will use the Patriot to counter the drones, because their use in large numbers allows the penetration of air defense systems. Russian suicide drones can quickly deplete Patriot anti-aircraft missiles and thus penetrate their defenses.
The destruction of Patriot missiles can also be successful by Russian forces for a "major reason", which is that moving the Patriot systems to avoid strikes is "not that easy," as the magazine asserts.
The magazine explains that operating one battery may require the efforts of three people, while moving it and preparing all its components requires the efforts of up to 90 people.
Also, firing Patriot missiles against some of the missiles would be prohibitively expensive, because each Patriot missile costs about $4 million.
Recently, the Western media has been promoting exaggerating the capabilities of the Patriot systems and that they will change the balance of the battle in Ukraine. Washington intends to provide a new package of US military aid to Ukraine worth $1.85 billion, which includes a long list of aid, including Patriot anti-aircraft batteries.
The US Patriot systems were completely unable to repel the missile and drone attacks carried out by Yemen’s army against strategic targets in the Saudi depth in response to the continued aggression and siege on the Yemeni People.
Activists on social media transmitted scenes of Patriot missiles falling on the heads of civilians in Riyadh as they tried to intercept the Yemeni attacks.
