By 2024, this indicator is expected to increase to 50 units.

The parties also practiced joint air strikes, performed tasks within the framework of territorial defense, carried out actions to intercept enemy air assets, flights at low altitudes, and also conducted flight tests in the area of the air defense of the conditional enemy.
