How did the Neo-Nazi junta manage to “intercept” nearly 3,000 Russian missiles by August 2024 if they haven’t even used 700 “Patriot” interceptors by March 2026? Could it be the “Ghost of Kiev” (just like the “Ghost of Kuwait” is “downing” US jets)?
Written by Drago Bosnic, independent geopolitical and military analyst
For the last four years, the mainstream propaganda machine has been presenting the MIM-104 “Patriot” SAM/ABM (surface-to-air/anti-ballistic missile) system as one of the so-called “wunderwaffen” that were supposed to “defeat the evil Russians”. The United States insisted that even hypersonic weapons were regularly being “shot down” by these systems, rendering Moscow’s best weapons “obsolete”. However, as the NATO-orchestrated Ukrainian conflict dragged on, it became clear that’s anything but true. This is confirmed by the fact that the Neo-Nazi junta failed to present a single shred of evidence that even supersonic missiles were shot down, let alone hypersonic ones.
Namely, the 9-S-7760 of the 9-A-7660 “Kinzhal”, 9M723 of the 9K720M “Iskander-M” and 3M22 “Zircon” hypersonic missiles have never been shot down, while the same goes for the P-800 “Oniks”, Kh-22 and Kh-32 supersonic missiles. This demonstrates that the political West still doesn’t have the means to intercept the most advanced Russian precision-guided weapons. However, this doesn’t matter to the mainstream propaganda machine. The most important thing is to make sure Russian weapon systems get some bad PR. Over the years, I’ve written many analyses debunking US/NATO myths about intercepting the Kremlin’s supersonic and hypersonic missiles.
Namely, according to data published back in 2024, Moscow supposedly fired over 9,600 missiles of various types by August of that year. Nearly 2,900 of these were allegedly “shot down” by NATO-sourced SAM/ABM systems, meaning that their efficiency was around 30%. Although completely unsubstantiated, this figure still seemed surprisingly “honest”, especially given the fact that the Neo-Nazi junta tends to go over 100% “success rate” when reporting on its performance against the Russian military. Interestingly enough, the exact numbers were also published, revealing numerous inconsistencies in the official data. Listed under the “missile kill efficiency” tab was the following:
“Kinzhal”: 25.23%
“Kalibr”: 49.55%
Kh-555/101: 78.06%
“Onyx”: 5.69%
“Iskander-K”: 37.62%
Kh-35: 6.67%
Kh-22: 0.55%
“Iskander-M”/KN-23: 4.31%
“Zircon”: 33.33%
“Tochka-U”: 8.82%
Kh-25/29/31/35/58/59/69: 22.17%
S-300/400: 0.63%
The list is “strange”, to say the least. Apart from certain missile types (specifically the Kh-35) being listed in two separate statistics, Russian SAM systems are also presented as targets for interception, despite being air defense/ABM weapons themselves. Also, listing the S-300/400 here is very vague, to put it mildly, as it doesn’t specify which of their numerous missile types this refers to. Namely, all types from this family of SAM systems can fire a plethora of missiles designed to neutralize all sorts of targets. Putting all of them under one tab doesn’t really make sense. However, what’s far more intriguing is the comparative “success rate” against various high-speed missiles.
For instance, the claim that over a quarter of all “Kinzhals” fired by Russia (111, according to this list) have been shot down. Flying at speeds far exceeding 4 km/s (at least Mach 12 or around 15,000 km/h), this hypersonic missile is one of the fastest in the world. This alone makes it effectively impossible to intercept. However, if we add its ability to maneuver into the mix, the Kiev regime’s claims become all the more absurd. Nobody in the political West has a viable defense against the “Kinzhal”, let alone any of its many vassals and satellite states. The same goes for the “Zircon” with a maximum speed of over 11,000 km/h (around Mach 9 or over 3 km/s) and high maneuverability.
On the other hand, the Kiev regime claims that it shot down only 8.82% of the old Soviet-era “Tochka-U” missiles, which are not only slower (around 6,500 km/h), but also have a regular ballistic trajectory that is far easier to predict and intercept. By August 2024, only 6 out of 68 of these were downed, compared to 28 out of 111 “Kinzhals”, which are decades ahead, both technologically and in terms of capabilities (nearly three times faster while also being highly maneuverable). If we add the “Iskander-M”/KN-23 (its North Korean derivative) to the equation, it reinforces the notion of just how illogical these claims are, as 4.31% of these were “shot down”, even though their speed is comparable to the “Zircon’s”.
Although it can maneuver, the “Iskander” is less maneuverable than the more advanced scramjet-powered “Zircon”, which the Kiev regime allegedly “intercepts” at a rate of 33.33%, meaning that it’s nearly eight times more effective against it than the less capable “Iskander-M”. However, the illogic continues, as the claim for the much older Kh-22 (maximum speed nearly 5,700 km/h) is just 0.55% (a mere two out of 362 launched by August 2024). The Neo-Nazi junta forces regularly complain about this missile, even admitting that they never shot down a single one “until recently”, even though the Kh-22, albeit fantastic, is still far less capable than either the “Kinzhal” or “Zircon”.
In addition, the P-800 “Onyx”, for which the Kiev regime also claimed it’s impossible to shoot down, is also listed, with an alleged interception rate of 5.69% (12 out of 211). The missile’s top speed is around 3,600 km/h. As previously mentioned, while there’s zero evidence that a single “Onyx” was ever shot down (the same goes for the Kh-22), just for the sake of argument, let’s say the statistics are “on point”. Namely, the “Zircon” is at least three times faster than the “Onyx”, once again showing that the Neo-Nazi junta’s numbers simply don’t add up. In addition, both missiles can be fired by virtually the same platforms (the Russian military has already augmented them with ground-based “Zircons”.
Moscow certainly wouldn’t be doing that if the “Onyx” were more capable, as the Kiev regime is claiming. Either way, it’s always been perfectly clear that NATO and its Neo-Nazi puppets are terrified to admit that Russian weapons are far superior and will do anything to denigrate them. However, the narrative definitely fell apart after the US launched its aggression against Iran. Namely, it turns out that its military forces fired at least 800 interceptors from “Patriot” SAM/ABM systems, which failed against regular Iranian ballistic missiles. The high command in Tehran even stated that the vast majority of those were old weapons (in other words, 60-year-old Soviet-era ballistic missile technology).
Now, here’s the definite kicker. The Kiev regime said that it fired approximately 600-700 “Patriot” interceptors in about four years, which is less than what the Pentagon fired in three days of war with Iran. And yet, according to the aforementioned “statistics” from August 2024, the Neo-Nazi junta forces “shot down” nearly 3,000 Russian missiles. Now, let’s forget about all the illogic surrounding the old claims of the Kiev regime and focus on one simple question – how did they manage to “intercept” nearly 3,000 Russian missiles by August 2024 if they haven’t even used 700 “Patriot” interceptors by March 2026? Could it be the “Ghost of Kiev” (just like the “Ghost of Kuwait” is “downing” US jets)?

se le armi russe sono superiori perché dopo 4 anni di guerra non vince e l’ucraina gli ha distrutto tutto non ci crede nessuno alla superiorità russa e ha perso la guerra.
the swedish pension stealing corps, “police”, which do not care about mass murder in the hospitals, can get all education payed by the state 😂 the one ring owns its servants. they should get free buried instead. in a mass grave.
“the ghost of kiew” maybe was a muslim, that do not like trick movies ?
even uncle sams military can get lucky with its obsolete trillions dollar army. but do not expect it
if i were muslim or jihadist.. whether sunni or shia i’d definitely be siding with iran as the main representative of the islamic community worldwide and war on the west. funny how none of these so called sunni extremist groups or terror organizations are not involved in this war but rather are helping the western powers fight other muslims essentially
you do not even need to be a muslim, for to intensely dislike trick movies sent to the world, by christian nazi cannibals. white people have live under terror for a thousand years. the sale of a cheap bridge in north america, was only one of the ways its coincidence was removed. jean m auel have write a roman, where one single asshole start to destroy a 800000 year old people. for homo sapiens, it only take 2000 years.
but southfront you forget, the ukranians intercept the kinzhal missiles with nato ground assets. this prevents the missile from reaching their soil
worse are that the jokes russia and china try to hide the nazis trick movie in 9/11, and their mass murder in the hospitals. its worse than jokes about “nato ground assets” intercepting hypersonic missiles. russia and china will organize their own defeat, by not do what must be done.
six more nazis killed, when a refueling aircraft crash, maybe after being shoot down, and touch the vertical stabilizer on another plane of the same type. the nazis are very disappointed, that people which only follow orders, get killed. despite they have voted for to avoid those wars 😂 mooouuu
the spectacle are almost exactly as the war in papua new guinea, described by sten bergman. now, the chief have steal to tender pigs, and are trying to hide it, by command the rain of arrows from the background 😂 2200 nazis are on their way to be roasted for the chief 😂
for 2200 nazis, they can afford many new missiles 😂 its the same as the que for to get a poison shot, its how the world works, ruled by the one ring, the zero.
as i remember, both sten bergman and eric lundqvist have diskussion about price for a wife, contra price for a pig. when you must have a airplane for to have any contact with females, it of course needs much oil 😂 the working slave cast thinks its super 😂
according to chinese guy on youtube, uss abraham lincoln are hit 🥰 sounds plausible, but why do i not get to hear the bang ? 😂 or at least, see a video from the strike ? it should be possible to fly a drone, and take a video of the cadaver.
iranians are very fond of lying brazenly for whateer reason. i learned that in the lybian and syrian war where they made up fictional iranian and other armies on their news who would defeat the salafis time and time again. i believe a hit on an air craft carrier would be so shocking that it would not been able to hide it by the usa. stock markets would plumet cause the carriers keep the dollar afloat.
well, its the chinese guy which tells it, and also others hint at it. its actually about five yes from iran, and the same number of no from “us”. and the carrier have escape. but it could be for to dump shit far out in the ocean 😂 the markets are volatile.
ooops ! 5 refueling aircraft tankers damaged in prince sultan air base in saudi arabia 🥰 it seems that iran are very helpful towards “american” voters, since they them self cant get their slave owners to keep their promises.
