They can with Patriot but they only two in the whole country. Also we really need to stop calling these things "Hypersonic Missiles", it's just a cruise missile with a rocket booster, it can't do of the fancy manoeuvring a hypersonic missile is meant to do to.

Its an air launched ballistic missile not a cruise missile. Its hypersonic in the sense that most ballistic missiles are in terminal phase. Not in the sense of the "in development" hypersonic maneuverable cruise missiles that everyone is striving to develop.

BOOM! Right in the ammo rack. That's what happens when you design your MBTs with no proper protection and blow out/cook-off panels for the ammo. IIRC, on the T-72B the ammo is stored in the main compartment in a circular rack that sits directly under the turret ring.

Unbelievable that one guy lived. Ran off. Had balls enough to come back and check his burning comrade, then ran to take shelter in the woods.
 
The Russians are pushing very hard. Looks like the push is towards another oblast. Scans must have revealed a high number of microwave ovens, women and children. ******

So they didn't destory any of the Kinzhal hypersonic missiles? (0/4)

I don't think Russia has used them against a target protected by a Patriot system since it creamed the entire wave sent at it last time and this year theyve rounded up several of the weapons developers and charged them.

Meant to post this yesterday

In this episode Saul and Patrick speak to Briton Aiden Aslin, who travelled to Ukraine in 2018 and enlisted with the Ukrainian 36th Naval Infantry Brigade. He describes his time on the frontlines in the Donbas before the full scale invasion was launched in February 2022, when he was deployed to Mariupol. Aiden was then surrounded by Russian forces in the Siege of Mariupol where he describes what it was like in the vast steel works complex in the final days of the siege before his surrender to Russian troops.
Join us next week for the second half of Aiden's interview when he describes his time in Russian captivity.
