The coordinating committee of the Commonwealth of Independent States
joint-air defense system met in Yerevan, Armenia, on Feb. 14, in part
to provide information about the Russian and Armenian air defense
systems, Russian air force Deputy Commander Aitech Bizhev said.

Bizhev added that a Caucasus regional defense system would be similar
to the Russian-Belarusian air defense system that is nearly complete.

Russia’s 102nd military base, equipped with the S-300 anti-aircraft
system, is in Yerevan.
