Recently, a Russian T-90A tank hit Louisiana. Now the Tor-M1 anti-aircraft missile systems and

S-300. But if the tank was real, then in this case we are talking about very high quality models.

In one of the photos you can see an anti-aircraft missilethe Tor-M1 complex, together with the 5P85S launcher, which belongs to the S-300. Another image, next to another Tor-M1, shows a radar for tracking and guiding missiles. The radar station is known as 5N63 and 30N6 (according to NATO codification - Flad Lid). The radar is part of the S-300 anti-aircraft missile system.

Both systems were developed in the Soviet Union.Now anti-aircraft missile systems are in service with the Russian army and are actively used in the war against Ukraine. Moreover, the S-300 is used not only as an air defense system, but also for strikes against ground targets.

A more thorough vehicle inspectionrailroad cars seen in Ohio, indicates that 5P85S and 5N63 / 30N6 are definitely mockups. And it should be noted that the quality of performance is at a high level. A few years ago, the US Air Force wanted to acquire artificial S-300 launchers. At the moment there is no information about whether the purchase was made.

As for anti-aircraft missile systems"Tor-M1", they look like real ones, although they are also models. It is worth noting that the US Air Force has at its disposal at least one copy of the Tor-M2E, which is used for testing. It is known that over the years the United States has acquired a lot of Soviet and other military equipment for research, training and reengineering.
