- March 2022: 18 electronic warfare and radar systems of the Russian military were destroyed, which preceded the counteroffensive operations of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Kyiv and Kharkiv.
- September 2022: 13 EW and radar systems of the enemy were destroyed, which preceded the large-scale liberation of territories in the south of Ukraine, especially in the Kherson region.
- March 2023: 34 (!) electronic warfare and radar systems of the Russian military were destroyed, which may indicate the preparation of the largest counteroffensive operation of the Armed Forces during the large-scale invasion of Russian terrorists into Ukraine.
