Quote from Ground Forces: "In Lazurne, the Ukrainian defenders have destroyed the modern Russian radar station 48Y6-K1 Podlet."

Details: It is reported that the Russian radar was targeted and destroyed more than 100 km from the positions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

For reference: 48Y6-K1 "Podlet" radar is a universal mobile solid-state three-coordinate radar station with a phased antenna array for circular survey and detection of air targets at low and extremely low altitudes in a difficult obstacle environment.

The radar was developed by the Almaz-Antey air defenсe corporation for the Russian Aerospace Forces.

The complex is intended for issuing targets for S-300, S-400 and similar air defence systems. State testing of the complex began in 2010, and the first deliveries of the Podlet-K1 radar to the Russian air defence forces began in 2015.
