Must be one hell of a "victory day" celebration from mouthbreathing orcs, considering that their last significant gain was in May of last year when they took the ruins of Mariupol. Since then they lost Kherson and all the territory next to Kharkiv. Net negative progress for the entire year. Still can't capture Bakhmut after 10 months of drooling all over that small ghost town. Sad.
While the rest of the world moved on and improved their countries, Russia is still stuck in 1945 celebrating an 80 year old achievement like some wrinkled fat feminist hag who looks at her old polaroid photos and says "yeah I used to be hot back in the day"...

US officials are confident in Ukraine's claim it used Patriot system to stop a hypersonic missile, source says
The US has high confidence in the accuracy of Ukraine’s claim that it used an American-made Patriot air defense system to intercept a Russian hypersonic missile, according to a source familiar with the matter.
While the Patriot system has been successful in countering ballistic missiles, its ability to stop air-launched hypersonic missiles was purely theoretical before last week. Ukraine’s intercept has now provided a real-world demonstration of that capability — something that has been viewed within the Pentagon as a major development, the source said.
Ukraine’s intercept claim created buzz within the Pentagon late last week, the source added, noting it is significant for several reasons.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has publicly touted the capabilities of Russia’s hypersonic weapons and cast them as capable of overcoming all existing air defense systems.
Production of hypersonic ballistic missiles has always been challenging for Russia and sanctions have only made it more difficult.
But prior to last week, Russia’s calculus was that if it did use a hypersonic ballistic missile, whatever it was shooting at would assuredly get hit, the source said. This intercept has called that calculation into question, they added.
The fact that this intercept was conducted by a Ukrainian crew that was trained in Oklahoma, but had no US advisers on the battlefield, is even more of a feather in the cap for the Pentagon, the source added, calling it a major return on investment.
The intercept also has likely caused a severe amount of uncertainty for Russia, raising the question of whether Ukraine is in possession of a sustainable countermeasure against hypersonic ballistic missiles, the source added.

The US confirming it's own system shot down an untouchable missile seems pretty legit. It's like when Congress investigates itself for wrongdoing and finds nothing wrong.
If it is true then it's shown to anybody in the world developing them that they need to be designed smarter.

If our Patriot system is so wonderful, why is the .gov trying to force Turkey into sending Ukraine their S400 sytems?

Ya but are they though?? Lol
Turkey bought the s400 systems to save $$ versus the much more expensive patriots. The s400 system is great too, especially considering the cost.
I cant blame turkey for their decision but you cant be a nato country and use russian defence systems. Thats what the US is pissed about.
And lmao at them having a bitchfit when the US offers greece f35s instead of them. Like wtf did you expect bro.

Not only that, they also want to steal tech, they want Turkey's s-400 first to be sent to America.
Only idiot can beleive that Patriot with spec of max speed for tharget of 2 mach, can shoot down Kinzhal who flies 11 mach.
Rocket speed of patriot is 3 mach. And can shot down target that goes up to 2 mach. There is no theoretical possibility it can down 11 mach target. Even if Kinzhal slowed for some reason to 5 mach, Patriot can't touch it.Как сладок свободы кнут

But it does play into the vatnik's suggestion that the US isn't the good guy and only does things in it's best interest. And it isn't above being petty to punish countries that don't want to be hooked up to the globohomo train.
Patriot doesn't need to fly faster than it. It only needs enough time to lead the target. Part of the point of doing mach 10 is to make it very hard to lead it. So I'm wondering if it malfunctioned in flight and wasn't flying at top speed.
