Judging by this screenshot from the onboard camera of the loitering ammunition Lancet, the 'Gepard' guarding the S-300 was also damaged or eliminated.

Either my sarcasm is too good, or my english is too bad, or both. The detonation of ammunition and the complete destruction of the target did not occur, it is difficult to judge the degree of damage from the video. In addition, it is not known whether this Lancet was with a high-explosive fragmentation or with a cumulative warhead. Surely this Gepard can be returned to service, the question is when and with what efforts, perhaps he even just escaped with a slight fright and humiliation from the "hunter became a victim" series. In any case, the power of the Lancet charge of any modification is clearly not enough to confidently hit targets on a tank chassis, even with lighter armor like that of the Gepard.
