00:00What you see behind me is an Indian missile streaking towards a Pakistani aerial threat,
00:04likely a drone somewhere near the border.
00:07The visuals are from the night of May 7th and 8th,
00:09a day after India struck nine terror-linked locations in Pakistan under Operation Sindhu.
00:14The missile you see was likely shot from the legendary S-400,
00:18a Russian air defense system that falls under the umbrella of a SAM,
00:22a term you will likely come across in news reports during times of conflict.
00:26It stands for Surface 2 air missile.
00:27How does it work? Let's break it down.
00:30A SAM system comprises of the following.
00:32A. A radar.
00:34B. A computer.
00:35C. A launcher.
00:36And D. A missile.
00:38The radar is the system's eye.
00:40It scans the vast expanse of the sky around it in a panoramic manner,
00:44looking for whatever is flying around it.
00:46Once it spots an object, the system's brain, that is the computer,
00:49takes over, performing highly complex calculations to determine whether the object is an enemy
00:54and its speed and location.
00:56If the object is determined to be an enemy, whether a drone, missile or an aircraft,
01:00the brain sends the information to the system's, let's say, limbs, that is the missile.
01:05The canister you saw at the start then rises, aims itself towards the enemy's direction and fires the missile.
01:11The missile hurtles towards the enemy in the sky, performing mid-air course corrections if needed,
01:15and explodes mere feet away from it.
01:18Taking it down and finishing the SAM's objective.
01:21Taking it down and finishing the normal Things
01:36Why animals will be the same in the possibility of appearing in this man that misses the missile?
01:41The other way they will get…
