The Russian side claimed that the S-400 shot down a Ukrainian F-16 fighter jet, and Western equipment is not invincible.

The F-16 fighter jet was shot down by the air defense system.

On April 13 local time, the Russian Ministry of Defense released a message stating that the Russian air defense system had shot down an F-16 fighter jet of the Ukrainian Air Force.

The Russian S400 air defense missile system can intercept targets within 400 kilometers and can shoot down F35 stealth fighters. It has already been deployed to the front-line areas. The F-16 fighter jet is only a third-generation fighter, and most air defense systems can shoot down F-16 fighter jets. Although Western countries have hyped up the F-16 fighter jet, it is not worth mentioning in Russia's eyes. Russia also has a more powerful S500 air defense missile system, which can even intercept intercontinental ballistic missiles. No matter what kind of Western weapons, they will be shattered by the Russian army.
