The Russian Aerospace Forces (VKS) have the technical capabilities and specialists capable of "thinning out the orbits" of Western satellites, RIA Novosti writes .

"In the event of an aggravation of the international situation, Russia will be able not only to observe the satellites of Western countries, but also to effectively destroy them," the publication says.

It is also noted that in November 2020, at the Sary-Shagan test site in Kazakhstan [...], the A-235 "Nudol" missile defense system (ABM) was successfully tested, designed to intercept US intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs).

"During the threatened period, the installations will be transferred to pre-prepared camouflaged positions, where they will remain invisible to enemy satellites until the launch," the agency says.

In November 2020, the editor-in-chief of the magazine "Arsenal of the Fatherland", Colonel in reserve Viktor Murakhovsky, commented on the latest test of a new missile defense system conducted by Russia at the same time. According to him, "the capabilities of the missile and their limited number allow us to talk only about the interception of individual targets."

In April 2018, Russia successfully tested an upgraded missile of the PRS-1M "Amur" anti-missile system (ABM-3 Gorgon according to the NATO classification) at the Sary-Shagan test site in the eastern part of Kazakhstan, designed to protect Moscow from an air and space attack and to warn about a missile attack and control outer space.
