Russian Arctic air defense systems - Business Insider

Russia is moving air defense systems modified for the harsh Arctic
environment to key areas near its borders with Norway and the US, the US
Army's Foreign Military Studies Office (FMSO) notes in its August 2015 report.


According to the FMSO, the Kremlin is looking to place short-to-medium
range antiaircraft SA-22 Pantsir-S1 battalions at Murmansk by the
Norwegian border and at unspecified locations in the east of Russia
facing both the US and Japan.
