It uses a phased array antenna with 360-degree visibility to detect air targets at low and extremely low altitudes, even in challenging interference conditions.The radar system was developed by Russia’s Almaz-Antey defense enterprise and is designed to provide targeting data for S-300, S-400, and other anti-aircraft missile systems. State testing of the system started in 2010, with the first deliveries to the Russian army beginning in 2015, following the start of the Russian-Ukrainian war.The complex includes an antenna post, a control tower, and a mobile electric generator, all mounted on separate KAMAZ wheeled chassis.
