The report's key findings:
Western air defense doctrine using costly missile interceptors and aircraft is obsolete.
Russia’s multilayered, more affordable approach is superior in the high-intensity, missile and drone-filled conditions of modern warfare.
The Tor-M2 short-range SAM is its backbone. Not only do its interceptors cost less, but it can act as a mobile command system for local defenses. Kupol radar detects targets with tiny RCS, which can be delegated to cheaper AA guns or MANPADs.
3 minute deployment time, fire on the move capability, and flexibility against UAVs, GMLRS and HIMARS.
