Ukrainian forces have successfully destroyed a Russian 'Nebo-M' radar station using US-supplied ATACMS ballistic missiles, according to the Ukrainian General Staff on October 3. The destruction of this advanced radar, which is crucial for detecting and tracking aerodynamic and ballistic targets, significantly weakens Russia's military capabilities. The 'Nebo-M' radar, valued at over $100 million, is one of only ten remaining in the Russian arsenal. This strike is expected to create a favorable 'air corridor' for the effective use of Ukrainian aerial assets such as Storm Shadow and SCALP-EG cruise missiles in future operations.
