What is known about the modernization of "Iskander-M"

As Yuriy Ignat reported, this involves the use of radar traps.

Given this change, Patriot systems may operate less efficiently.

Missiles that attack along a ballistic trajectory, "Iskander-M", have been improved and modernized. It is about shooting down radar traps ... The flight of a quasi-missile along such a quasi-trajectory, when during the flight the missile does not fly in a straight line and fall, but flies and performs maneuvers.

According to him, Patriot systems, which destroy ballistics and calculate the point of interception of missiles, are currently having a harder time determining this point.

What is important to understand is that during the last attack, the enemy carried out strikes on Ukraine using 14 Iskander-M/KN-23 ballistic missiles from the regions of Taganrog, Yeysk, Bryansk — the Russian Federation, and the Autonomous Republic of Crimea.

The Russians aimed at Kyiv, Dnipropetrovsk, Odessa, and Zaporizhia regions.
