“We actually managed to complete its modernization,” Morozov quotes Zvezda TV channel.

He noted that in 2018 Russia put three new radar stations on combat duty - in Yeniseisk, Barnaul and Orsk.

Thus, as emphasized, a continuous peripheral radar field was recreated, which was incomplete due to the collapse of the USSR, since part of the funds remained on the territory of independent states.

Earlier, the Ministry of Defense announced the development of new weapons for air defense.

In the summer of 2018, a unit for fighting drones was created in the Russian Armed Forces.
