Pretty Much ...

 ... says it all. 

But I want to point out that Western media convulsions will continue including WSJ's yet another amateurish BS about ERAM "thingy" which, in actuality, doesn't exist as a viable weapon and, of course, the US will never deliver 3,000 "things" to 404. I address this issue in my today's video which should be up shortly. But, get a load of this, again: 

MOSCOW, August 15. /TASS/. Western-made anti-aircraft missile systems during the NWO showed an inability to resist the strikes of the aviation of the Russian Aerospace Forces and Russian air defense. This was reported to TASS by a source in the military-industrial complex of the Russian Federation. "Attempts by the Armed Forces of Ukraine to limit the strikes of the aviation of the Russian Aerospace Forces with the help of Western-made anti-aircraft missile systems are suppressed by Russian air defense systems. During the NMD, Russian air defense combat crews successfully intercept Western-made anti-aircraft guided missiles attacking the operational-tactical aviation of the RF Armed Forces while performing combat missions to destroy the enemy on the ground and in the air," the agency's interlocutor said. He clarified that since the end of 2023, the Armed Forces of Ukraine have been actively using S-200, SAMP/T and Patriot strike missiles against Russian Su-34 and Su-35 aircraft. The interlocutor added that "over the past year and a half, Russian air defense crews have intercepted almost two dozen Western-made anti-aircraft guided missiles that attacked aircraft of the Russian Aerospace Forces at supersonic speeds - from 870 to 1178 meters per second (up to 3.5 M)." "Moreover, about half of them are MIM-104D missiles of the American Patriot air defense system," he said. According to the source, "the greatest effectiveness of such interceptions is demonstrated by domestic S-400 anti-aircraft missile systems."

I cannot even begin to describe tactical and operational ramifications of it, but this is the first time in military in history that actual AD complexes are "suppressing" the activity of enemy's air defense in a significant, impactful way. This tells you something about detection and firing solutions development capabilities, ranges and velocities of Russian air defense missiles which make this possible. Some approximate assumptions, of course, could be made but keep in mind that S-300FM, S-400 and S-550 have in common one really funny missile--it is called 40N6E interceptor and it has a speed of, well, M=14+. Judge for yourself.

I repeat, I cannot emphasize enough the significance of this.
