    Well, the time has come for Buk-M3. It is interesting that they put it in the North Caucasus and not in the ZVO.

      SEO is the most protected district. while Ukraine does not pose a threat in terms of aviation.

      and in terms of air defense - ZVO and so on. At present, 9 Z-400 regiments are in service with ZVO, in addition to everything else

    Before the air defense of the times of the USSR, we are of course still very far away and there is something to strive for.

      Well, I would argue. Now rockets are working higher and further. But in quantitative terms, I agree with you.

        There is no air defense separation system in Russia (across all borders), but decades left this during the USSR and the “border on the castle” was not just an aphorism .. soldier
        Well, I hope to get out, if that .. And I would not want an extreme answer!

        in quantitative terms, everything is even better, before installations of the S-125 and S-200 type had a small channel and the number of missiles ... Therefore, the effectiveness of air defense increased significantly against massive attacks. But the enemy’s aircraft became smaller

    For a long time already 2 brigades created and armed with these complexes, six months as in combat readiness. So this is not news. And in the photo is S-300, but NOT B4.

    Note that the S-300 consists of two missiles, instead of four. They are special and have other characteristics. The beech is also not simple, although the launcher is old, but reliable and not afraid of electrical effects.
