The modern anti-aircraft missile systems of short- and medium-range should replace the current surface-to-air missile 2K12 KUB in 2020-2024. The system should increase the operational capabilities of air defence against all means of air attack, including the detection and elimination of aircraft, UAVs, helicopters, guided cruise missiles, small-scale and low-flying targets.
