22.39 The Lasar's Group special forces unit of the National Guard of Ukraine destroyed the Russian 1K148 Yastreb-AV radar reconnaissance station.
Russian equipment was hit in the Luhansk region deep behind the contact line. To eliminate the system, fighters used heavy drone bombers. The exact location of the complex was established after receiving intelligence data from fellow fighters.
The operation was carried out in cooperation with the duty forces management department of the command post of the Regional Center of the Northern Regional Emergency Response Center.

Its purpose is to detect artillery firing positions and automatically determine coordinates for retaliatory strikes. The estimated cost of the 1K148 Yastreb-AV radar is $50 million.
