Putin Installs SIX Pantsir-S1 Launchers and S-300/S-400 to Protect His Valday Residence
Video Summary
Russian President Vladimir Putin has allegedly installed a network of surface-to-air missile systems, also known as Paner, around his residence near Vdovozhdi Lake. According to satellite imagery, the sites were discovered by a Twitter user, Mark Kov, and feature a combination of missile launchers, radar systems, and command posts. There are at least six Paner Towers, with some still under construction, and two additional sites with S-300 or S-400 launchers. The imagery also shows a range of vehicles, including missile systems and command posts. The deployment of these systems around Putin’s residence is seen as a sign of increased concern about potential drone attacks, with the Ukrainian military having successfully targeted key infrastructure and high-profile facilities in Russia, including St. Petersburg. The Paner systems are designed to provide overlapping coverage and can reach targets up to 20 kilometers away, making them effective against short-range missile and drone threats. However, the high-profile deployment of these systems around Putin’s residence may be seen as an admission of vulnerability and a sign of increased fear of attack.
