Footage has emerged on Russian Telegram channels of air defense systems being deployed on the rooftops of government buildings in Moscow.
Air Missile Defense Army defending Moscow since February 2018. At the time, more than 20 units of the mobile complex were delivered. Currently, the relocation of air defense complexes from the wider Moscow region to the center of the capital may indicate that the 1Army command may not provide a 100-percent guarantee in protecting Moscow from drones.
Overall, the Pantsir system is capable of conducting single combat operations, from target detection to interception, at an altitude of up to 15 kilometers and with a range of up to 20 km . When the Pantsir entered service with the 1Army, the Ministry of Defense proclaimed that its task was to provide cover for the S-400 Triumph anti-aircraft missile systems.
Moscow’s air and missile defense apparatus has a comprehensive design consisting of two systems. The first is the A-135M strategic missile defense system. And the second is the S-50M system, which consists of the Baikal-1 and Universal-1 automated control systems, the S-400 and S-300PM2 complexes, as well as the Pantsir anti-aircraft systems.
In truth, the Kremlin seemed to be caught off guard regarding the vulnerability of its military airfields at Dyagilevo and Engels to drone attacks launched from Ukrainian territory. Yet, back in November 2022, Russian Security Council Secretary Nikolai Patrushev had called for increasing the air defense forces stationed in the Central Federal District to protect critical facilities . Apparently, this was not heeded nor implemented.
