The SSU press service reported about destruction of Kasta radar.
“In fact, this radar was the 'eyes' of russian air defense that controlled our airspace. The enemy hid it in the rear, carefully disguised it and often redeployed it,” the statement reads.

It is known that the cost of the radar starts at $60 million, depending on the configuration.
It became known that the radar was destroyed thanks to donations from Ukrainians, as a set of equipment for reconnaissance and tracking enemy radars (including a ground station for UAVs, a minivan, laptops, power supply and communication equipment) was purchased by the Come Back Alive Foundation at the expense of volunteer contributions.
It is noted that since the beginning of the full-scale war, various units of the Security Service of Ukraine have already destroyed 166 russian air defense systems and 446 electronic warfare systems on the frontline.
Earlier Defense Express reported that the Ukrainian Air Force had shot down russian Su-34 fighter-bomber in Kursk.
