According to relevant experts, the target object is the Majid launch system (AD-08), which is believed to have been used to attack the American F-35 fighter jet.
Majid is a mobile system mounted on a light 4×4 all-terrain truck, equipped with launchers for missiles and an electro-optical/infrared sensor.
A unique feature of the Majid system is the absence of radar, making it harder to detect and attack. It uses infrared missiles with thermal guidance, allowing it to hit stealthy aircraft at close range.
The effective range of this system is approximately 8 kilometers, which requires it to be positioned relatively close to the front lines. Observers suggest that Majid is intended for ambush attacks.
