EXPLAINED! How Russia its upgraded Iskander Ballistic missile to deceive U.S Patriot Defence System
Russia’s massive overnight assault on Ukraine involved 14 ballistic missiles—including the newly upgraded Iskander—9 cruise missiles, and over 350 drones, killing at least 12.
Video released by Russian media shows the Iskander missile successfully outsmarting U.S. Patriot defense systems. The upgraded missile now uses quasi-ballistic trajectories, radar decoys, and terminal evasive maneuvers, making it significantly harder to detect, track, and intercept.
These technological upgrades allow the Iskander to bypass advanced missile defense systems by altering its flight path mid-air and confusing radar systems with false signatures.
This development marks a significant shift in the ongoing military-tech faceoff, raising alarms about the limits of existing air defense networks.

The United States has confirmed it is sending another Patriot air defense system to Ukraine to help the war-torn nation counter Russia's escalating aerial assaults. This decision comes as former President Donald Trump issued a strong statement, bashing Russian President Vladimir Putin for his aggressive military strategy. For months, Ukraine has pleaded for more advanced air defense, as the previous freeze in U.S. military aid allowed Russian warplanes to dominate the skies and launch devastating strikes with ballistic missiles like the Iskander and the hypersonic Kinzhal.
The Patriot system is considered Ukraine's only reliable and effective shield against these specific high-speed threats. Its advanced radar and PAC-3 MSE interceptors are critical for protecting high-value targets, including the capital city of Kyiv, and vital energy infrastructure that Russia has systematically targeted. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has stated that Ukraine needs more of these systems, as the current six to eight units leave vast areas of the country exposed to Russian attacks.
However, the deployment is not without risks. Each Patriot missile costs between $2-4 million, and Russia actively targets these valuable systems on the battlefield. The U.S. itself has a limited global inventory of Patriot units, balancing urgent requests from Ukraine with strategic commitments to allies in the Middle East and the South China Sea. This deployment signals a critical phase in the Russia-Ukraine war, testing both Ukrainian resilience and American strategic resolve.
