    ARMENIA-BASED RADAR MEETS RUSSIA'S INTERESTS

    Tert.am
    12.04.12

    Military expert Artsrun Hovhannisyan believes that Russia will
    construct radar identical to the Gabalin radar Azerbaijan if, of
    course, it pursues its military and technological interests.

    If, however, political interests are Russia's priority, it will
    raise the issue of continuing or stopping the operation of the
    Azerbaijan-based radar.

    Armenia's proposal to construct new radar may prove beneficial for
    Russia. "Our proposal is a timely, reasonable and beneficial one. Our
    country is a mountainous country, where wider radar coverage is
    possible," the expert said. Russia has not yet officially responded
    to the proposal.

    The Azerbaijan-based radar is "last century's technology." It has
    low efficiency and needs capital repairs.

    Russia seeks to create an anti-ballistic missile system in the
    Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) area, the expert said.
