"Pantsir systems have successfully engaged a wide variety of drones, as well as ATACMS ballistic missiles, Storm Shadow and Flamingo cruise missiles, high-speed HARM missiles, HIMARS guided rockets and other targets," the statement read. High-Precision Weapons, part of Rostec State Corporation, has delivered a batch of Pantsir-S systems to the Russian Defense Ministry under the state defense order. The air defense systems have demonstrated their capabilities during combat operations, can intercepting virtually the entire range of enemy aerial attack weapons, Rostec said.
