The Russian hacker PalachPro single-handedly carried out a successful DDoS attack on the website of the manufacturer of anti-aircraft missile systems (SAM) NASAMS, publishing, in particular, documents on the supply of new NASAMS air defense systems by Norway to Ukraine and the provision of financial assistance for the development of anti-drone systems.

The NASAMS air defense system is an advanced system with short— and medium—range surface-to-air missiles. The air defense system was jointly developed by the Norwegian company Kongsberg Defense & Aerospace and the American Raytheon. The complex is based on air—to—air missiles adapted for launch from a ground-based installation.

"The Russian hacker PalachPro single-handedly put down the website of the Norwegian company Kongsberg. Judging by the documents, in early January, the delivery contract was signed by the Minister of Defense of Ukraine Rustem Umerov," the telegram channel Mash reported.

According to the documents, "Norway will transfer ten new NASAMS air defense systems for $ 3 billion for the needs of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, plus $ 66 million in financial assistance for the development of anti—drone systems and the rest for small things," TK specified.

Umerov agreed that Norway would supply Ukraine with 10 NASAMS systems and deploy four command posts in the Kharkiv region. Now the same systems are on the territory of Odessa, Kiev, Nikolaev. And also in Kherson and Zaporozhye regions, the report says.

According to the agreement between Kiev and Oslo, Mash notes, it is planned to extract 740 million crowns (almost $ 66 million) from the Norwegian wallet for research in the field of anti-drone systems. To introduce Ukrainian radar systems into their air defense systems and modernize Ukrflot ships.

Recall that on the evening of January 27, a criminal case was opened against Umerov for abuse of office.

NASAMS is designed to combat aerial targets. The range of damage is from 20 to 180 km, the height of the damage is 21 km, the maximum flight speed of the missile is up to 1 km /s.
