Defense Express reported the information.Photos published by Dosye Shpiona (Spy’s Dossier) on the Telegram messaging app show the charred remains of MZKT-7930 trucks used in the Iskander system, reportedly hit at the Molkino training ground in Russia’s Krasnodar region. According to the outlet, the attack was carried out in the 20s of August with the use of 14 drones.The site is located near Goryachiy Klyuch, where the 1st Missile Brigade of the Russian Armed Forces is permanently based and equipped with Iskander systems.The Iskander complex consists of several vehicle types: 9P78-1 launchers, 9T250 transport-loading vehicles, as well as command, maintenance, and life-support vehicles, some of them mounted on the KamAZ chassis.In the available photos, at least six burned MZKT-7930 vehicles and one KamAZ-based vehicle can be identified. Analysts note that it is difficult to determine whether the destroyed units were primarily launchers or transport-loading vehicles, as these are the first publicly available images of destroyed Iskander equipment.The CyberBoroshno analytical community suggested that the strike eliminated one launcher and five 9T250 transport-loading vehicles. The launcher appears to have been destroyed separately in a hangar. The photos also indicate that Russian personnel attempted to extinguish the fire with extinguishers and buckets, but failed.
