    Where are you reading that is a radar for ICBMs? The article just says a Krasukha radar jammer is reported to be there. Reading the Wikipedia article for these systems indicate that they can jam the radar for UAVs and drones. Since Ukraine has been using drones heavily, I can see why they would attack. I’m not saying that it doesn’t work against ballistic missiles but it’s seems like they have a lot of other applications to Russia’s war effort.

        If you’re going to come at me with a link about Ukraine, please make sure it’s from a website that’s not run by this guy:

        Ben Aris: There’s a narrative in the mainstream media about, you know, “Stand with Ukraine and never report the negative stuff, only report the positive stuff.” But people I deal with, professional investors in particular, they’re interested in what’s actually going on because they’ve got money in the game in the form of investments and assets.

        I don’t think the negative stuff shouldn’t be reported but fuck him and his professional investor friends.

        BTW: Ben Aris has controlling interest in the company that owns the link you shared and got his start in journalism in Moscow.

          If you’re going to discredit a link, please make sure that the statement itself is incorrect. You are being warned.

          Kyiv Post also calls it an early warning radar complex: https://www.kyivpost.com/post/34782
