Parte de guerra


Lo que sigue es una descripción oficial, por parte de las fuerzas armadas rusas, de lo ocurrido ayer en Siria:



Título: Chief of the Main Operational Directorate of the Russian General Staff Colonel General Sergei Rudskoy holds briefing for mass media

Texto: The US alongside its allies conducted a missile strike by its air and naval carriers targeting military and civil facilities of the Syrian Arab Republic on April 14 in the period from 3.42 am till 5.10 am (MSK).

The Russian air defence systems at the Khmeimim and Tartus air base timely located and controlled all naval and air launches made by the USA and the UK.

Announced French aircraft have not been registered by the Russian air defence systems.

It is reported that the B-1B, F-15 and F-16 aircraft of the USAF as well as the Tornado airplanes of the UK RAF over the Mediterranean Sea, and the USS Laboon and USS Monterey located in the Red Sea were used during the operation.

The B-1B strategic bombers approached the facilities over the Syrian territory near al-Tanf illegally seized by the USA.

A number Syrian military airfields, industrial and research facilities suffered the missile-bomb strike.

As preliminary reported, there are no civilian casualties and losses among the Syrian Arab Army (SAA). Information will be further specified and made public.

As evident by the available data, 103 cruise missiles have been launched, including Tomahawk naval-based missiles as well as GBU-38 guided air bombs fired from the B-1B; the F-15 and F-16 aircraft launched air-to-surface missiles.

The Tornado airplanes of the UK RAF launched eight Scalp EG missiles.

The Syrian air defence systems, which are primarily the USSR-made AD systems, have successfully countered the air and naval strikes.

In total, 71 cruise missiles have been intercepted. The S-125, S-200, Buk, Kvadrat, and Osa Syrian AD systems were involved in repelling the attack.

It proves high efficiency of the Syrian armament and professional skills of the Syrian servicemen trained by the Russian specialists.

Over the last eighteen months, Russia has completely recovered the Syrian air defence systems, and continues its development.

It is to be stressed that several years ago given the strong request by our western partners, Russia opted out of supplying the S-300 AD systems to Syria. Taking into account the recent incident, Russia believes it possible to reconsider this issue not only regarding Syria but other countries as well.

The strike targeted Syrian air bases as well. Russia has registered the following data.

Four missiles targeted the Damascus International Airport; 12 missiles – the Al-Dumayr airdrome, all the missiles have been shot down.

18 missiles targeted the Blai airdrome, all the missiles shot down.

12 missiles targeted the Shayrat air base, all the missiles shot down. Air bases were not affected by the strike.

Five out of nine missiles were shot down targeting the unoccupied Mazzeh airdrome.

Thirteen out of sixteen missiles were shot down targeting the Homs airdrome. There are no heavy destructions.

In total 30 missiles targeted facilities near Barzah and Jaramana. Seven of them have been shot down. These facilities allegedly relating to the so-called “Damascus military chemical programme” were partially destructed. However, the objects have not been used for a long time, so there were no people and equipment there.

The Russian air defence systems have been alerted. Fighter jets are on combat air patrol now.

There were no cruise missiles entering the Russian AD responsibility area. The Russian air defence systems were not applied.

Russia considers the strike to be a response to the success of the Syrian Armed Forces in fighting international terrorism and liberating its territory, rather than a response to the alleged chemical attack.

Besides, the attack took place on a day when the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) special mission was to start working on investigating incident in the city of Douma where chemical attack allegedly occurred.

It is to be stressed that there are no facilities on producing chemical weapons in Syria, and this has been documented by the OPCW.

The American aggression proves that the USA is not interested in objectivity of the ongoing investigation, seeks to wreck peaceful settlement in Syria and destabilize environment in the Middle East, and all these have nothing to do with declared objectives of countering international terrorism.

Currently the situation in Damascus and other settlements is assessed to be stable.The environment is being monitored.

  1. Dicen que EEUU estaba testeando el sistema de defensa ruso. Se encuentra con un impresionante global 70% de efectividad del famoso y best-seller sistema antimisiles rusos, en algunos sectores seguramente mejor defendidos fue del 100%. Esto cambia la balanza del poder aereo-maritimo que ostentaba EEUU, por otro lado única guerra que el imperio puede desarrollar luego de la evidencia de Irak y Afganistán, donde la guerra de territorio rápidamente los encuentra en punto muerto.

    El imperio empieza a demostrar su debilidad, y no pudo hacer mejor propaganda a la tecnología militar rusa.

  2. Pienso más o menos lo mismo (vea mi post anterior). Con una diferencia: si los números de efectividad antimisilística son fiables, más que demostrar debilidad, el Imperio se revela a los ojos del mundo como un tigre de papel. Piense que los sistemas antimisiles que usa Siria en este momento son de épocas soviéticas prácticamente. Como dijo un comentarista por ahí: "...even decades-old Russian S-150/200 anti-missile tech is more than adequate against the US' crap Tomahawk systems". Por primera vez (a escala masiva) se demuestra en el terreno que si Rusia se opone, la NATO no puede invadir ni Jamaica. Me imagino la cola que agregados militares de medio planeta deben estar haciendo en las embajadas rusas para comprar los S-400, que los rusos ya les están vendiendo a Egipto, Turquía e incluso a... Arabia Saudita!

  5. Es de lo que esta hablando el mundo ahora, los sistemas soviéticos antimisiles S-150/200 con mas de 40 años de antiguedad instalados de forma reciente y a las apuradas en Siria fueron suficientes para anular prácticamente los "nuevos, bonitos e inteligentes" misiles que prometió Trump.
    Ahora hasta se habla de que "después de décadas se ha comprobado que USA no hubiera podido ganar una guerra misilística contra la Unión Soviética"
    Para colmo este fiasco viene enlazado con la reciente gran presentación que hiciera Putin en Marzo de la renovación tecnológica de sus armamentos. Con la presentación del RS-26 Rubezh misil intercontinental hipersónico con cabeza nuclear, y el misil "Dagger" también de capacidad hipersónica y nuclear pero capaz de ser disparada desde el aire. Para terminar la humillación no solo que amenazan con dotar de sistemas S-400 a sus aliados en medio oriente sino que ya anuncian el nuevo S-500.

    Parece todo una meticulosa puesta en escena magistralmente orquestada por Putin. Y obligadamente necesaria para hacer entrar en razón al imperialismo occidental y que los brutos cabeza duras yankis entiendan el mensaje de Putin de Marzo:

  6. "Parece todo una meticulosa puesta en escena magistralmente orquestada por Putin". Realmente, parece que EEUU-Francia-UK en su torpeza y estupidez, actuando fuera de la ley internacional y con un descrédito absoluto a nivel mundial (salvo las cúpulas corruptas de los países satélites y vasallos no han conseguido consenso política ni social sobre su acción), ponen a Putin en el papel de sheriff bueno, que viene a poner ley y orden, a los tiros, en el lejano medio oriente. Hicieron una película a medida de Rusia.
