    Recently Netherlands and Australia said that Russia is responsible for deployment of air missile system. Buk installation was used to down MH17. Russian Defense minister blamed the investigation team for ignoring eyewitness of Ukrainian community. Moscow has rejected the blame for crashing the flight. 

    Was it a failure of ground Radar system?  I served in sea for long time as weapon electrical engineer. Most of the time we carried tactical game exercise at night. In some cases it was difficult to identify nature of objects. By analyzing a moving data, motion and route, we generally define nature of object and threat. 

    But loss of innocent life cannot be accepted. Whether Russia accept liability of not, full compensation must require to victim family.
