A GPS beacon was installed on the rocket, which could guide the enemy capture group, said the head of the Tsarskie Wolves military-technical center. The fighters were able to block it, but they practically did not manage to sleep, they had to move all the time. They even had to fight when the enemy DRG tried to intercept vehicles with a missile and escorts on the road, Rogozin said. The missile was handed over to specialized specialists for study, this will allow the Russian military-industrial complex to develop the most effective ways to deal with Storm Shadow.
