Special shelters will provide reliable protection for tactical and army aviation from cruise missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles. This was pointed out by military expert Yevgeny Damantsev.
The construction of protective shelters for tactical and army aviation of the Russian Aerospace Forces has begun. This step will protect it by 95%.
At the same time, the analyst noted that to protect against Western SCALP-EG missiles with a penetrating warhead, it is necessary to relocate aviation equipment to more rear airfields.
The maximum range of SCALP-EG missiles is 560 km, but due to the close proximity to the nozzle section of the turbojet engine's exhaust duct, they have a large infrared signature.
Earlier, the expert explained how Russia can protect itself from the stealthy British SPEAR-3 missiles.
