Russian Arctic-ready military equipment, including the Pantsir-SA surface-to-air missile complex and the Tor-M2DT anti-aircraft missile system, debuted at the 2017 Victory Day parade on Moscow's Red Square, Tuesday.

The Tor M2-DT is the Arctic version of the Tor M2, a short-range, surface-to-air missile system, with a missile range of about eight miles (12.87-kilometre).

The Pantsir-SA has six missile launchers and can reportedly destroy targets at a range of up to 20 km (12.42 miles).

This year, more than 130 pieces of modern military hardware crossed Red Square: Tigr multipurpose vehicles, T-90 and Armata tanks, BTR-82A armoured personnel carriers, BMP-3 infantry combat vehicles, Msta-S self-propelled howitzers, and Buk-M2 and Yars air defence system.

The arctic missiles are optimized for working in the freezing temperatures and placed on the DT-30 Vityaz transporters. The vehicles apply less pressure per square inch to the snow than a soldiers booth. The Pantsir-SA and Tor-M2DT will be the only types of military hardware to roll across Red Square donning winter camouflage.
