Ukrainian Armed Forces could not shoot down the missile that hit the house in Dnipro

Currently, the Ukrainian army does not have the means to shoot down missiles such as X-22. Patriot PAC-3 or SAMP-T air defence systems are suitable for this task. 

During the full-scale invasion, Russia has already fired over 210 such missiles, none of them have been shot down.

One of the X-22 missiles hit the Amstor shopping center in Kremenchuk on June 27, 2022.

The X-22 was designed to destroy aircraft carriers. These are big targets - the largest aircraft carrier in the world is 337 meters long. Because of this, the X-22 was not designed as an extremely point weapon. Its deflection can reach hundreds of meters.
