What is important to understand is that the Tu-142 (NATO reporting name: Bear-F) is a Soviet and Russian long-range anti-submarine aircraft (ASFA).
Initially, its main task was to detect and destroy enemy nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarines (NPSs) in patrol areas.
However, de facto Russia actively uses it for long-range ocean reconnaissance, visual or radio, for duty in the search and rescue service system and only then for searching and observing anti-aircraft missiles.
Moreover, the Russians were unable to protect another of their Iskander missile systems from the powerful strikes of the SBS.
What is important to understand is that we are talking about an enemy operational-tactical missile system that launches surface-to-surface missiles.
According to Magyar, he was “hunted” at a launch position in the vicinity of Taganrog, Rostov Oblast, Russia.
A courtesy visit to Taganrog was made by the Birds of the 1st SBS OC. The result was not limited to the list of goals listed above — the water also lit up the gut. Video later, — the SBS commander promised.
New successful operations were carried out with the assistance of the Deep Strike Center of the Unmanned Systems Forces.
