The Unmanned Systems Forces (USF) destroyed three Russian Tor-M1 air defense systems, worth a total of $75 million, in the early hours of Friday, Feb. 20, according to USF chief Robert “Madyar” Brovdi.
“All three TORs are in the occupied part of the Zaporizhzhia region. The operation was carried out simultaneously by the Birds of the 1st Separate Center of the Unmanned Systems Forces,” Brovdi said, sharing on Telegram a video of the operation lasting more than 90 seconds.
Kyiv Post could not independently verify the video’s time and location.
Brovdi emphasized that systematically identifying and destroying components of enemy long-, medium-, and short-range air defense remains a USF priority.
“Overnight minus ~75 million dollars, but first of all - a strike on the near echelon of the worm air defense, which always causes significant trouble. Someday those costly scabies will end,” he wrote.
The Tor-M1 is a short-range air defense system capable of detecting and striking multiple targets simultaneously with a maximum range of 12 kilometers (7.5 miles), at an estimated cost of $25 million per unit.
