effectiveness of the patriot systems versus russia s hypersonic missiles? they ve been touted as being nearly impossible to intersect. that s what mr. putin said, but it turns out that patriot can intercept a hypersonic missile. after all, the patriot was designed to intercept ballistic missiles that were in coming. they are moving at much more than three or four times the speed of sound. so, the patriot has a radar, the guiding system, and energy in the missile to be able to strike an incoming hypersonic missile. do you know how large process supply is? can it afford to keep using them in waves of attacks? i think it s really a logistics issue for both sides. the question is, how many patriot missiles can ukraine afford to fire? as i look at it, anderson, it s a sort of strategic calculus by the russians to try to exhaust the ukrainians air defense missiles prior to the time that
