Comparing the Patriot against S400 missile systems

#shorts
There are two options for air defense but which one is better?

#S400 #Patriot #airdefence

"comparing"

all you said was the time needed to be ready for launch

Corrupted individuals would do more damage to their own nation's than foreign can inflict

When the comments section gives more info then the video itself....

Well if you guys did not know an S-400 from the Russian-Ukraine border shot down a Ukrainian Su-27 piloted by veteran pilot Col. Oleksandr "Grey wolf" Oksanchenko over Kyiv. From the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv to the Russian border that is approx 310+km. That's a hell of a long shot and probably a new record of the longest ranged confirmed kill by a SAM system in history. Patriots can't do that. RIP Col. Oksanchenko

Former 24F, HAWK radar mechanic, that was the whole point of having a battalion with 3 battery’s of launchers. While at least one battery was on alert, covering us, one or both of the other battery’s could move to a new location. Plus each battery had two platoons with 3 trailer mounted launchers and one platoon with 3 tracked launchers that were up and ready to cover us as it took an hour to move and another hour to set up. Patriot came after I left the service but I imagine it was the same drill, one or two battery’s would provide air defense while the others moved to new locations. So that there was never 25 minute gaps in air defense coverage!

It took me a whole minute to realize its S400 and not $400

"Their capabilities are kept secret" well for the Patriot it isn't really secret after its performance in Iraq and Saudi

The amount of missiles and explosions I saw in this 60 second clip was quite impressive

Originally I thought it said "Comparing the Patriot system to a $400 missile system" I was like what??? That's a steal. Where can I pick one up

[ricercket]

Been stationed in Korea. Believe me they can have the patriots up in less than 5.

The 25 min warm-up is a recommended practice. In an emergency you can squib the thermal batteries and launch immediately. That said, you'd normally just keep at least one battery warmed up at all times.

S400 is better, its cheaper, better radar, and has more capability with vertical firing.

I never noticed that the US and Russia have same colors in their flags

S/400 look like 55 gallon drums welded together …

Have we learned anything new over the last year with regards to capability?

[Liango-dzkn]

Americans when someone says that there’s a weapons that can have advantages over theirs: 🤯🤯😱😱

[runemoldestad]

s400 can launch in any direction without turning the launch tubes and has a cold launch

[jaymay]

25 mins ? That sounds like “go ahead test us “

My MOS was a 14T. PATRIOT missile launching station enhanced operator/maintainer. Our equipment was always already up and running and would not take 24 minutes to get firing. Nice video though, I guess? Lol
