"Patriot" not the effective weapon of protection. Recollect where was.....
"Patriot"destroys a jet part of a rocket.
A fighting head of a rocket by inertia moves in the purpose...There was a scandal about it.

This thing is 2 generations behind the s-400.

Magnetic wing tech question.;Wings on of new Jet could be made to produce less wing drag by placing small magnetic wings above large wings and make both these wings high charged magnetic metal. Now a Jet has four magnetized wings. They act as vibration reducer. Creating higher speed and control values. Of course computer would control magnetic power of the wings and change magnetism when it turns and lands.Same thing can be done with these long range anti-ballistic missiles.

Shatnerpossum S-300 and S-400 plus the latest Pantsir S1 are all air defense systems. What gave you the idea that they were offensive? And KhanStodge is right, it's better than ours even our gov admitted. Thats why we don't want the Russians to sell it but think its ok to place defense missiles in countries ourselves. Hmmm something ain't right.

He said "coming at you" implying an offensive role. Its just the way his syntax worked.

And I seriously doubt that these new SAM's are any better than Patriot. US just has better technology, its also reflected in avionics.

Besides, in an age of stealth the guidance is what matters. And the guidance on those just isn't up to par.

It shoots down theater ballistic missiles, SCUD's, not ICBM's.
