The deployment, construction and development of Russia’s anti-missile systems have become a top priority for the Russian Defense Ministry, predominantly due to the expansion of a US anti-ballistic missile system in Eastern Europe, in particular in Romania, Turkey and Poland, as well as in Spain.

As a responsive measure, in October, the Russian Defense Ministry unveiled plans to build several new anti-missile radars in order to cover the entire territory of Russia over a five year period.
