Russia has the best anti-air defense system bar none

What air defense system? Their outdated equipment can't even stop Ukrainian rockets from blowing up their helicopters.

You expect them to stop top of the line nuclear missiles raining down from space?

The playing field is quite asymmetrical right now, favoring Russia.

They just lost their flagship to yet another missile attack. They're all bark, no bite.

Drinking the AP news koolaid, I see.

Yeah, nobody ever lies, and you always analyze everything in depth, looking at both sides of an argument. /s

NOTHING you write has any shred of credibility. AP has LESS THAN ZERO CREDIBILITY. They are 100% narrative and agenda disinformation.

Ah yes, Russia is perfect and can do no wrong. Their army is STRONK, and we must all cower in fear.

Even though they abandon their own equipment, and Farmers drag them away with tractors. Is this the power of the Russian bear?

S-400 and S-500 are considered top GBAD systems, but Russian weapons are questionable. They could be filled with vodka and cigarettes.

They just lost their flagship to yet another missile attack

The Moskva was laid down in 1976, so I'm not surprised it was unable to defend itself against modern missiles and what was possibly a nato assisted attack. The launch tubes for it's defensive missile systems were probably welded shut in 1993.

The Russian navy is in rough shape. They didn't start modernizing until recently, and all of their effort has gone into corvettes and frigates. All of their larger cruiser and destroyer class ships are soviet era hunks of garbage that belong at a naval museum.

I meant it sarcastically.

Obviously Russia has air defense systems but the fact that Ukraine's own airforce still exists and they've struck Russian soil many times defeats Horrux bogus claim that they're invincible.
