Video recorded inside a Ukrainian Osa air defense system shows the successful tracking and interception of a Russian Shahed (Geran) loitering munition before it is able to strike somewhere in Ukraine.

The 9K33 Osa is a mobile, low-altitude, short-range tactical surface-to-air missile system developed by the Soviet Union in the 1960s. It was actually the first single-vehicle air defense system in which its tracking radars and missile systems were all combined in a single vehicle rather than a multiple vehicle unit.
