5 November, 2023 Destroyed S-300 launcher near Berdyansk. Source: freeze frame from the video Russians published a video of a destroyed S-300 air defense system launcher near Berdiansk.

Journalist Andrii Tsaplienko reports on this in his Telegram channel. The author of the video notes that the launcher was destroyed on the move, and the crew was killed. In addition, he notes that a Tochka-U missile hit the launcher, although it could have been destroyed by M30A1, M31, or M31A1 missiles from the M142 HIMARS system.

It can also be assumed that a drone could have hit the system, although the characteristic damage to the asphalt suggests the use of a cluster warhead. Militarnyi previously reported that Ukrainian artillerymen, together with the SSU special forces, destroyed a command post that could have been part of the Russian S-300 or S-400 air defense system.

The characteristic features of the destroyed Russian object visually resembled the Soviet-era 5N63S command post with an illumination radar of the S-300 system or its further development, the 92N6E command post of the S-400 system. The multifunctional target illumination radar receives signals and works on air targets. A few days earlier, Ukrainian special forces destroyed the Russian 48Ya6-?1 Podlet radar in the Belgorod region.
