In Libya, "Pantsir-C1" Haftar shot down PNA attack aircraft
As it became known from a post on Twitter by the Egyptian freelance journalist Mohamed Mansour, the Libyan National Army (LNA) under the command of Marshal Haftar managed to bring down a combat aircraft.
Mansur reported that the MiG-23UB belonging to the Government of National Accord (PNS) was shot down by the Russian Pantsir-C1 air defense system, which had been delivered to Havtar from the United Arab Emirates several weeks earlier aboard the UAE Air Force S-17A transport aircraft.
Later, information appeared, confirmed by representatives of the PNS, that the downed aircraft is a light attack aircraft L-39ZO made in the Czech Republic.
Experts who examined the remains of a plane shot down by the Russian complex agree with this statement.
