What you see behind me is an Indian missile streaking towards a Pakistani aerial threat,
00:04
likely a drone somewhere near the border.
00:07
The visuals are from the night of May 7th and 8th,
00:09
a day after India struck nine terror-linked locations in Pakistan under Operation Sindhu.
00:14
The missile you see was likely shot from the legendary S-400,
00:18
a Russian air defense system that falls under the umbrella of a SAM,
00:22
a term you will likely come across in news reports during times of conflict.
00:26
It stands for Surface 2 air missile.
00:27
How does it work? Let's break it down.
00:30
A SAM system comprises of the following.
00:32
A. A radar.
00:34
B. A computer.
00:35
C. A launcher.
00:36
And D. A missile.
00:38

and its speed and location.
00:56
If the object is determined to be an enemy, whether a drone, missile or an aircraft,
01:00
the brain sends the information to the system's, let's say, limbs, that is the missile.
01:05
The canister you saw at the start then rises, aims itself towards the enemy's direction and fires the missile.
01:11
The missile hurtles towards the enemy in the sky, performing mid-air course corrections if needed,
01:15
and explodes mere feet away from it.
01:18
Taking it down and finishing the SAM's objective.
01:21
Taking it down and finishing the normal Things
01:36
Why animals will be the same in the possibility of appearing in this man that misses the missile?
01:41
The other way they will get…
