The main task of the crews is to protect critical infrastructure, transport arteries and entire settlements. The air target can be anything from an FPV drone to rockets of multiple launch rocket systems.

During the special military operation, we mainly work on unmanned aerial vehicles, such as Furia, Leleka. We destroy them very effectively, but we can also work on cruise missiles, guided aerial bombs, and multiple launch rocket systems.
