Photos of the 9A310М1-2 self-propelled launcher of the Buk-M1 SAM system destroyed 20 kilometers south of Melitopol have been released.

The Dosye shpiona Telegram channel published photos of the equipment.

According to the source, the strike was carried out using an FPV drone. The date of the strike is unknown.

Given the distance of about 100 kilometers from the line of contact, it can be assumed that the launcher was destroyed by a sabotage and reconnaissance group or a resistance movement.

The hit resulted in the detonation of one of the anti-aircraft missiles, which completely destroyed the launcher.

Hunting for Russian Buk SAM systems

The Ukrainian Defense Forces are actively hunting for enemy air defense systems that cover important facilities and positions of Russian troops along the entire front line.

Militarnyi previously reported that the Special Operations Forces hit the Russian Buk system using a new kamikaze drone.

The military discovered the location of the Russian Buk missile systems during reconnaissance operations.

After that, a drone promptly hit the system. A reconnaissance drone monitored the process.

At the beginning of May, it was reported that the operators of one of the Special Operations Forces units discovered and destroyed the Buk-M1 air defense system’s launcher with six missiles.

It is reported that the transporter loader launcher and firing unit of the Buk-M1 system were discovered while working in the Sumy direction.

The firing unit was damaged, and the transporter loader launcher was destroyed.

The operators inflicted fire damage using fixed-wing kamikaze drones while a Shark drone monitored the target.
