The German IRIS-T air defense systems have proven to be 100% effective in Ukraine, according to military historian Andriy Haruk, who wrote about this in a blog for "Militarnyy."

Since their deployment in October 2022, the IRIS-T systems have been actively defending Ukraine's airspace. Haruk highlighted the exceptional performance of these systems, citing the manufacturer, Diehl Defense. From October 2022 to June 2024, the IRIS-T systems successfully intercepted more than 240 targets, achieving a remarkable 100% hit rate—every missile fired reached its intended target.
