Russian troops on the border have deployed a Chinese laser air defense system to counter Ukrainian drones.

The online outlet Mash published a video showing the system in action.

It is reported that the system was handed over for testing to the Kochevniki (Nomads – Ed.) unit.

The trials lasted three months and, according to the outlet, confirmed the effectiveness of the laser system, allegedly destroying ‘hundreds of Ukrainian drones.’

During the trials, the system reached combat readiness in approximately two minutes and was able to engage drones at distances of up to 1.5 km.

The video shows footage of the Chinese Silent Hunter laser.

The Silent Hunter, also known as the LASS (Low-Altitude Laser Defense System), is a turret equipped with a 30 kW fiber-optic laser, mounted on an off-road vehicle chassis.

The system is equipped with a radar and an optical station for target detection, tracking, and engagement.

It is claimed that the radar can detect targets at distances of up to 5 km, while the optical station can lock onto and track targets at distances of up to 3 km. The stated engagement range against drones is up to 1.5 km, and the camera-blinding range is up to 3 km.


Besides Russia and China, this air defense laser system is also used by Iran and Saudi Arabia.

Is like you don't get the point. Russia has been turned inside out by this so called war of attrition. So much so that they are now getting arms from China and North Korea.

Wasting scare resources because of ego. Why not Putin accept peace deal.

War is expensive...


Putin knows knows that, zelensky knows that, the world knows that.


Both men knew the consequences of going to war.


Putin getting weapons or arms from anywhere he feels would be useful to him for whatever reasons doesn't mean he is disadvantaged.

The biggest military powers don't make ALL the weapons they require. US buys from allies where necessarily, isreal does same even though it's a huge manufacturer of weapons. Everyone does it.


Don't you think Ukraine should accept a peace deal instead? They are the ones being bombed and turned into rubbles with all their supporters and allies abandoning them to their fate after parts of their territory even lost to Russia.


It's Ukraine you should be asking to accept a peace deal actually!
