On Monday, the Ministry of Defense of Azerbaijan has released footage showed a drone attack targeting an Armenian new Tor-M2KM surface-to-air missile (SAM) system.

The Tor-M2KM is a modern short-range air defense system that Armenia has received from Russia last year.

A video statement published on the Ministry of Defense website said that on November 9, at 15:50, the Armenian Tor-M2KM SAM, which was used against Azerbaijani aviation and placed between the private houses by the enemy in the Khojavend direction of the front was destroyed by the precise fire.

Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said on December 21 that Yerevan had bought Russian Tor-M2KM anti-aircraft missile systems and released a photo of a recently received modern air defense system.

According to Russian multiple reports, the Tor-M2KM provides round-the-clock protection against both fixed-/rotary-wing aircraft and air-launched weapons (including cruise missiles, anti-radiation weapons, guided and gliding bombs, and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The system shields both state objects and industrial complexes, including oil and gas storages, sea-banks, various power stations, plants, large bridges, railroad stations, airports, sea and river vessels, etc. It is a self-contained fighting module version of the system that can be mounted in various locations.
