A Phantom killer continues his combat career

The S-75 missile system is one of the most effective air defense modes in the post-WWII period.

This system was made in Soviet Russia. Its military service in China began with the downing of a Taiwan Air Force spy plane in 1959.

And Russia used it in 1960 to stop the American “O-2” spy plane that violated the airspace of the Soviet Union.

The S-75 systems gained wide fame when they contributed to repelling the American aggression on Vietnam, as the S-75 missiles inflicted heavy losses on the American Air Force, which amounted – according to the newspaper “Rossiyskaya Gazeta” – hundreds of destroyed aircraft, including modern “Phantom” aircraft at the time. . The B-52 strategic bombers were also hit by the S-75.

The S-75 systems were also widely used during the Arab-Israeli wars.

More than 15 armies of the world now possess S-75 missiles. The Vietnamese army also continues to use it. It has been modified and developed.

The updated S-75 missiles can destroy various modes of air attack, especially hidden winged missiles (Cruise).

The S-75 systems have been upgraded to continue contributing to the border borders of many countries.
