"Buk-M2" strikes aircraft and Drones at a distance of 3 to 45 km (at the Wasp - no more than 10 km), cruise and ballistic missiles - up to 20 km. The height of the fire is 25 thousand meters, at which strategic reconnaissance patrols (at the Wasp - a little more than 5 thousand meters).

The 1096th regiment was formed in 1946. In 1989, he was transferred from the 126th Motorized Rifle Division to the Black Sea Fleet. In 1990, the division was disbanded. In 1995, the regiment was transferred from the village of Mizhgirya to Sevastopol. In 2012, in the course of a well-known reform, it was disbanded, the remaining anti-aircraft batteries were transferred to the 810th Marine Brigade. After the reunification of Crimea with Russia, the military unit was restored.

The 51st Air Defense Division of the Russian Aerospace Forces, armed with S-300 and S-400 air defense systems and Pantsir anti-aircraft missile and cannon systems, protects strategically important infrastructure facilities in Crimea. The 1096th regiment, after re-equipment, will cover the facilities of the Black Sea Fleet and ships leaving on alarm at sea. Together, both formations will deploy an echeloned defense over the Crimea and the Black Sea Fleet, capable of dealing with the most high-tech enemy.

Previously, "Buks" were in service only with air defense brigades of the ground forces, with the exception of the 2014 Olympics, when the 1721st anti-aircraft missile regiment of the Russian Aerospace Forces covered the coast from Tuapse to Sochi during the 2014 Winter Olympics.

        they will create a continuous aerial cover over the peninsula and the Black Sea.

        who are they against? not from the mighty aviation of the "most powerful" European power in the end? Apparently to cover the coast and water area from amateurs of "joint exercises"

      We dare to hope that the Bosphorus has long been closed to uninvited guests, just in case, and this is just help

      It's good that the technique is being replaced with a new one. "Wasp" is long overdue for rest.

        Well, those on - "Wasp" "Buku" is no match.
        Wasp is a niche of "Tunguska" and "Pantsir".
        Now in the Crimea, in theory, a complete set - short, medium and long range - echeloned air defense defense is being formed.

      It is strange that such a re-equipment takes place three years after the reunification of the Russian Federation with the Republic of Kazakhstan ...

      And what about the Armor is not said? Are they not in Crimea? And they do not fit into the air defense system?
