Isreal, the USA and NATO have had 2 decades to examine multiple S-300 versions and come up with countermeasures. The East Germans, Czech/Slovaks, Ukraine and others brought all their toys with them (minus nukes) when they left the Warsaw Pact. Won't be a cakewalk, but I'm thinkin' the S-300 radar systems and missiles can be neutralized. Reason why the Russkies use S-400s. |

I agree … S-300s have been around for awhile. I think our ever evolving tech would prevail. Hopefully we won't have to find out. |
