NATO member Poland says Russian missile violated its airspace | DW News

NATO member Poland says a Russian cruise missile briefly violated its airspace on Sunday morning. Warsaw summoned officials from the Russian embassy to demand an explanation.
Poland said the missile entered its territory as it was firing at targets in western Ukraine. The city of Lviv, close to the Polish border, came under heavy attack. Explosions also rocked the Ukrainian capital. Officials say air defenses shot down roughly a dozen missiles in and around Kyiv. Residents were told to remain in shelters.
Poland says it would have shot down the Russian missile that breached its airspace if there had been any indication that it was heading towards a target in Poland.

The missile was flying in Poland for 39 sec and incurred up to 2 km. Given assumed speeds of missiles, it was vectored mostly parallel to the border. This is how targeting conclusions were made and no counter-measure was taken. Still, vigilance in that short time period is paramount because the missile could be following a deliberately misleading track.

Cruise missiles do not fly in a direct course towards the target but instead fly many curves to avoid the known air defense systems. The Russians use GLONAS for this purpose. Since they probably don't fly accurately, they flew a circle over Poland. That’s what I assume. Or it was on purpose 🤷🏻‍♂️

Nonsense…. So if a nation is attacked with missiles during an overcast night, it may not defend itself because it can’t visually confirm what the missiles are. You have no idea what you’re commenting. The radars could perfectly identify what it was. It was tracked way ahead. An inch into NATO airspace and you shoot it down. Poland is assisting Russia in this war when it allows Russian missiles targeting Ukrainians travel through its airspace! Besides portraying NATO as being weak. That just how it is. You’d think Russia would do noting if a NATO missile entered Kaliningrad airspace for 40 seconds?

[@JessicaSunlight]

My understanding they knew what it was before it even entered Poland's Air space.

[@PolaccoPrimaSort]

@@JessicaSunlight As I wrote, you don't do such things if you can't see what it is. Ultimately, it was determined that this object did not pose a threat. This has already been explained in the public space by specialists. Moreover, with each increased activity of Russian aircraft, Polish and allied fighters are picked up, and yet this missile was not shot down. Shooting this missile would likely cause far more damage on the ground than bruised national egos. Apparently, it turned out that the rocket's flight trajectory is not a threat to the Polish side. Whether we like it or not, we have war on the eastern border and Belarus plus Russia in the north. This is due to the fact that we are subjected to pressure that most people who comment here have no idea about. In such cases, we must keep a cool head and hide our national ego - it will be better for us and our allies. And I repeat, we are not at war, which ties our hands in such situations.

Polands: please, be smart and not escalate

[@casperhfl]

Why did the expert not consider the possibility of Russia planning the missile route into Poland on purpose??

[@engliterra355]

to do what?

[@Yuusou.]

Because they monitored the attacks and most likely have seen one of these missiles making a sharp turn. That's not "on purpose" and certainly if that happened purposely, Russia would cause a war they could simply not win.

[@engliterra355]

@@Yuusou. lol) Russia already won. You supplied eevryhting you can there and lost

[@Yuusou.]

@@engliterra355Russia can't win, if they need to send out tanks from the early Soviet Union era and still haven't even gotten a third of Ukraine's territory in 10 years. With the drone strikes hitting economically important facilities, the goal for Ukraine in Russia is to incite a revolt by all people. As soon as food prices skyrocket and even the middle class in Moscow notice the pain, they will go to the streets and at some point Putin would need to have a war against its own people, if he wants to stay in power. Therefore, no, Russia certainly did not win and probably will lose eventually. With all the brain drain and the sanctions, the loss of men and therefore the loss of opportunity to have babies in the country, they will economically suffer in the decades to come.

[@asocia852]

​@@engliterra355picture this: western countries has sent basically old junk, even the abrams sent are the old version and in very low numbers, the same number of "modern" wetern tanks sent to ukraine is the number of tanks russia lose every weak even more on their wave attacks, and the most precious russian war plane, the tu-160 blackjack, was designed and built in ukraine back in the soviet times, russia was unable to replicated until this day...
