原文:
One of the Patriot air defense systems operated by Ukraine’s Air Force has destroyed more than 140 Russian ballistic missiles, according to the Ukrainian outlet Militarnyi, citing the Air Force Command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
The same system has intercepted nearly 250 aerial targets in total since entering combat service.
According to the report, the figures were confirmed by the command of the Ukrainian Air Force and reflect combat results achieved by a single Patriot battery deployed to protect critical areas from Russian missile attacks. The system has been used extensively against ballistic, aeroballistic, and cruise missile threats launched by Russian forces.
"At present, we have already destroyed almost 250 targets using Patriot, more than 140 of which were ballistic," said Patriot battalion commander and Hero of Ukraine Viacheslav Ahieiev in an interview.
Ahieiev said his unit was the first Ukrainian air defense formation sent to the United States for training on the Patriot system after Ukraine received the platform as part of international military assistance.

根據烏克蘭媒體《Militarnyi》援引烏克蘭武裝部隊空軍司令部的說法,烏克蘭空軍所操作的一套「愛國者」防空系統,已成功摧毀超過140枚俄羅斯彈道飛彈。
同一套系統自投入實戰以來,總計攔截到的空中目標已接近250個。
報導指出,相關數據已獲烏克蘭空軍司令部證實,反映的是單一一個愛國者防空連在保護關鍵區域、防禦俄羅斯飛彈攻擊時所取得的作戰成果。該系統被廣泛用於攔截俄軍發射的彈道飛彈、氣動彈道飛彈以及巡弋飛彈。
愛國者防空營指揮官、「烏克蘭英雄」阿希耶夫在受訪時表示,「截至目前,我們已使用愛國者系統摧毀近250個目標,其中超過140個是彈道飛彈。」
阿希耶夫說,在烏克蘭經由國際軍事援助接收「愛國者」系統之後,他的部隊是首支被派往美國接受該系統訓練的烏克蘭防空部隊。
