Russia is planning to install two modern anti-missile defense systems on its border with North Korea, an employee of the Russian Defense Ministry says.
Russia has expressed “concern” since a row erupted between North and South Korea after the latter blamed the North of torpedoing its warship near the two countries’ disputed maritime border in the Yellow Sea in March. Forty-six sailors were killed. Pyongyang has denied any involvement.
Russia is also uneasy about North Korean missile tests, noting that the test site is “alarmingly close” to the Russian border, Itar-Tass reported on Tuesday.
It said that the army will station two modern systems of the S-400 near the border, Itar-Tass quoted an employee of the Russian Defense Ministry as saying.
The S-400 system is intended to engage current and future air threats such as tactical and strategic aircraft, Tomahawk cruise missiles and other type missiles, including precision-guided ones, as well as AWACS aircraft, at ranges of up to 400 km.
It can also detect stealth aircraft and other targets at all altitudes of their combat employment and at maximum ranges.

Wow, in the best interest of peace, since this a purely a defense weapon against attacks and invasions.
