In this episode of Point of Impact, former Navy SEAL Team Six Squadron Leader Chuck Pfarrer takes apart Russia’s newest weapon of desperation: the modified 48N6 variant of the premier S-400 anti-aircraft system.
Originally built as the mainstay of 21st-century Russian air defense, Moscow is now gutting these multi-million-dollar interceptors and lobbing them as unguided ballistic terror weapons into Ukrainian cities. Why is the Kremlin sacrificing its own air defense protection? How did Ukraine’s breakthrough electronic warfare system “Alpha” neutralize Russia’s Mach 10 Kinzhal hypersonics? And how is Kyiv fighting back by targeting key nodes in Russia’s military-industrial complex instead of noncombatants?
Join Chuck Pfarrer as he breaks down the physics, the doctrine, and the strategic reality of the war.
