Did The US Patriot Air Defense Systems In Kyiv Failed To Stop Russia's Recent Missile Attacks?

WNU Editor: The official line is that the Patriot systems in Kyiv only sffered "minor damage" .... US officials say damage to Patriot missile defense system was minimal following Russian attack near Kyiv (CNN). More here .... Patriot missile system in Ukraine damaged but operational: US (France 24).

I do not know if the Patriot systems were damaged or destroyed, but I do know that since yesterday Ukrainians are now being warned/threatened to not post images or videos of Ukraine's air defense systems or how many missiles were launched during a barrage on social media.  

Update: Good point. See tweet below.

You can mob any system. Beyond mobbing if you make it a complex attack, it makes it easier.
WNU is spending a lot of energy on a version of Patriot that is 2 or 3 decades old.

what you want is the command and control center and the radar. But WNU is fixated like a vatnik on empty launch containers.

Faz...So how many were there? From what I saw there were not that many hits. But then again you have to assume that most of the hits were off screen.

3;28 so these systems have no upgrades? I doubt that. But are they the front line types they have guarding the Pentagon , probably not.

Do you know which ones the ukies received?

I will say this: the ones in Kiev are also guarding the US Embassy. Bet those ones are state of the art and being run by PMC former US army guys.

6 months ago the claim was that not even mob attacks could defeat our air defenses.

The lie has to be maintained otherwise the vulnerability of the surface fleets as well as the Taiwan war plans become seriously questionable.
