And last Sunday, Russian President Vladimir Putin said that Russia’s air defense systems, including missiles, are… "Book M3"It is highly effective in shooting down Ukrainian drones.
In late May, the Russian Ministry of Defense published footage documenting the hunt for system missiles "Book M3" missiles "Tochka-o" Ukrainian and Ukrainian attack drone.
Main features and capabilities
The Buk-M3 is a medium-range ballistic missile system, one of the surface-to-air missile systems, and has the ability to attack ground targets as well, and was developed by Russiawith the aim of blocking and countering cruise missiles, precision-guided smart bombs, as well as fixed- and rotary-wing aircraft, drones, stealth aircraft and ballistic missiles.
and Buk M3 strategic missiles, the latest version in the family "poke m"It is a medium-range system that can shoot down targets from a distance of 70 km and at a maximum altitude of 35,000 meters.
It is also characterized by the ability to engage 24 to 36 hostile targets at the same time, and it can counter a hostile air target with a supersonic speed of 10,800 kilometers per hour, as the system’s new missile speed reaches 5600 kilometers per hour.
The Russian side had earlier announced the provision of a new missile for the system "Book M3" With a range of 130 km.
It was developed over its predecessor "Book M2" It can carry 6 advanced vertical take-off missiles, as it is an extension of the family of missiles "Toxic" Soviet.
This system also works to protect the skies of the region Donbasseastern Ukraine, from any possible bombing, according to news reports.

In the opinion of the researcher in military affairs, Walid Sami, that the BUK . system "One of the most famous air defense systems in the world Russian war The Ukrainian, where both sides own types of BUK that are used extensively in air defense, protecting ground forces and addressing most air threats from fighters, bombers, helicopters andDrones And ballistic and cruise missiles, and it is also characterized by its good resistance to electronic jamming and the speed of its combat readiness".
Expected pending "Sky News Arabia" The BUK-M2 and BUK-M3 systems are considered one of the most important Russian air defense systems Participate in the war next to "TOR M3" And"Pantsir" And"S-400".
And he adds: "According to the statements of the spokesman of the Russian Ministry of Defense Igor Konashenkov, the BUK-M2 and BUK-M3 systems had the lion’s share in shooting down the largest number of missiles fighters Ukrainian bombers, helicopters, drones and ballistic missiles".
As for the researcher in military affairs, Mina Adel, he says: "This system has proven to be lethal among the medium-range systems in the world, as it has sufficient flexibility in the theater of operations to ambush enemy fighters and bombers and constantly change their places, which makes the task of finding them difficult.".
Expected pending "Sky News Arabia" that "This type of system has become a serious threat to any air force in the world EuropeAnd, with the exception of the US Air Force, there is no air force in the Alliance NATO He has the ability to neutralize such a danger because he does not have the required combination of electronic reconnaissance aircraft and bombers equipped with systems and ammunition capable of finding and destroying this highly flexible target.".
And he adds: "Most of the losses of this system were caused by artillery, not by aircraft, which is one of the lessons learned from the Russian military operation in Ukraine"Pointing out that the Buk system forced the leadership of the Ukrainian Air Force to restrict the missions of Ukrainian bombers, helicopters and Bayraktars in the field, after not a few losses.".
