The MiG-29 fighters, created in Russia, in July managed to eliminate the MIM-23 Hawk medium-range anti-aircraft missile systems developed in the United States in Syria. Experts are confident that the cars from the Russian Federation still have great potential.
Polish journalists noted in their material that Turkish servicemen acted as operators of anti-aircraft systems, and its disposal made it possible to stop the attack on the Libyan settlement of Sirte by the country's national accord troops, supported by Ankara.
According to the information of the authors of the material, the MIM-23 Hawk failed to detect the MiG-29, because the pilots of the Russian fighters could use the electronic warfare mechanism. Correspondents suggested that the aircraft were piloted by domestic pilots. In conclusion, they stressed that aircraft still have a very significant military potential if they have a high-quality precision weapon and are piloted by competently trained pilots.
Arms deliveries to Libya are officially banned, while the press from time to time publishes materials about the use of militaristic equipment and ammunition of foreign manufacture, including American and Russian, in the zone of combat conflict. Recently, the media talked about the alleged landing near one of the bases in Libya of a Russian transport plane, which had previously been noticed at the Moscow airport.
