3 days ago Israeli army AA system tried to intercept unknown UAV, that penetrated to Israel airspace over Cfata region from Syria and managed to go 4 km deep into it. 2 Patriot missiles didn;t managed to hit target, an air-to-air missile launch was also reported. UAV flyed back to Syrian airspace.

 

Press service of the IDF reported that the IDF Air Force conducted surveillance of the object before it entered Israeli airspace. After crossing the border 3 attempts to shot down it did not 

succeeded.

LoooSer, I heard that the Pantsir-S1 is being upgraded to be able to intercept artillery shells and or MLRS rockets, confirm/deny?

Technically it could this now (not sure about artillery, but ATGMs from helicopters were in the list of targets to intercept by Pantsir-S1).
