Let me get this right.

A Soviet-made (pre-USSR) S-300 was fired from within Ukraine to outside of her border.

S-300 was (presumably from Internet-source) manufactured within Ukraine (during Soviet days).

So we should really be looking into:

- how was it hooked up the S-300 fire and control to the Internet, securely or unsecurely.

- who wrote the S-300 software

- who fired the weapon ... arguably remotely.

Of course, I assume that fire and control has "Internet" option for maximum military flexibility.
