π·πΊπΊπ¦ Most likely, the modified S-200 missile used on Taganrog was launched from the Zaporizhia area. At least one S-200 system has been deployed there for the last couple months.
A few other S-200 systems are located in Odessa, Kharkiv and Kherson regions. They are periodically used to strike Crimea and Belgorod Region.
In fact, the situation with the modernized Soviet anti-air missiles is interesting. They showed up after more than a dozen failed attacks from Ukraine's Grom-2. These systems were regularly used to try to hit Crimea, but were always either shot down or went way off target.
Apparently, the Grom-2 trials are seen as having failed, and so work was done to the S-200, which has a bigger payload. Now they're trying to use them everywhere instead of Grom-2s. It's hard to remember when the Grom was even last used.
