Wiki tip:

Pantsir-S1 is a combined short to medium range surface-to-air missile and anti-aircraft artillery weapon system produced by KBP of Tula, Russia. The system is a further development of 2K22 Tunguska (NATO reporting name: SA-19/SA-N-11) and represents the latest air defense technology by using phased array radars for both target acquisition and tracking.

The Pantsir-S1 was designed to provide point air defense of military/industrial/administrative installations against aircraft, helicopters, precision munitions, cruise missiles and UAVs and to provide additional protection to air defense units from enemy air attacks employing precision munitions especially at the low to extremely low ranges.

The Arctic version of the system can operate at a temperature of −50° Celsius. After testing, it was decided to design a new version specifically for the Arctic, to use at temperatures below −50° Celsius.

Russian troops went on the offensive in the Donbass along a common front of 70 km.

Bild writes about this with reference to Finnish expert Emil Kastehelmi. “The Russians recently launched a major offensive east and south of Donetsk on a 70 km wide front. This strike broke through Ukrainian defenses in many areas in just a few days. The overall situation is very alarming, and Ukrainians are exhausted. The coming winter is likely to be difficult,” the expert said.
