    That would be the s-400 they destroyed the day before yesterday.

    With a cruise missile. One of the things an s-400 is supposed to shoot down.

      In the Russians’ defense, it’s harder to shoot down a cruise missile than a civilian airliner with almost 300 innocent passengers including 80 children.
