The Russians are preparing to repel retaliatory strikes against Moscow following their threats to destroy Kiev . Air defense systems have begun to be installed on Moscow skyscrapers.

Thus, yesterday, a video was circulated on social media, which captured the process of delivering the Pantsir-SMD-E system to the top of a high-rise building by a Mi-26 transport helicopter.

"This image demonstrates how profoundly the Ukrainian drone campaign has changed the security system in Russia's capital itself," writes the military-analytical publication Defense-Blog . According to Militarny, the air defense system was installed on the roof of the Nordstar Tower business center, located in Moscow's Northern District on Begovaya Street.

The Pantsir-SMD-E is the latest variant of the Pantsir family of short-range air defense systems. The most well-known of this family is the self-propelled Pantsir-S1 system on a truck chassis, which combines 30mm automatic cannons with 12 anti-aircraft missiles. The SMD-E version, however, lacks cannons and uses only short-range missiles with a firing range of 500 to 20,000 meters. The system can simultaneously track 40 targets and engage threats moving at speeds of up to 1,000 meters per second, and its radar can detect targets at a range of up to 45 kilometers.

Analysts note that deploying the Pantsir on the roof of a high-rise building solves a problem that ground-based air defense systems face when operating in urban environments. Simply put, densely populated areas prevent ground-based air defense systems from seeing and engaging aerial targets. Elevating the air defense system to a higher altitude solves this problem to a certain extent.

Analysts believe that the deployment of additional air defense systems by the Russians in and around Moscow is good for Ukraine.

"Every Pantsir battery deployed on a Moscow rooftop is a battery not deployed near the front lines in Ukraine, and every missile spent defending Moscow is a missile not available for forward air defense operations," writes Defence-Blog.

Besides, Russian authorities have approved a mechanism allowing private companies to purchase heavy weaponry to defend industrial facilities against drone attacks, the RBC news website reported , citing sources linked to the Defense Ministry.

The new system will allow companies to procure anti-aircraft artillery systems, turrets, radar equipment, specialized vehicles and electronic warfare systems, RBC reported.

“In order to promptly provide newly formed mobile fire groups with everything they need, the relevant decisions were recently adopted at the state level,” one source told RBC.

The move underscores mounting concern among Russian authorities and business leaders over the growing frequency of Ukrainian drone attacks targeting oil refineries, industrial sites and other strategic infrastructure across European Russia.

The issue was publicly raised Monday during a meeting between President Vladimir Putin and Alexander Shokhin, head of the Russian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs (RSPP).

“Large companies are certainly taking steps — at least all conscientious major companies are — to protect both their facilities and the areas where they operate. But some issues still need to be resolved,” Shokhin told Putin, according to a Kremlin transcript.

“These include mechanisms for supplying weapons — not only light 7.62 mm firearms, but also heavier weapons systems. That includes various electronic warfare systems, laser installations and other types of weaponry,” he said.
