Summary/Abstract: The complexity of land forces’ action is mainly determined by the multitude of factors specific to the operational confrontation environment that affects the fulfillment of the missions. The airspace of responsibility as dimension of the operational environment is the active component of air defence artillery structures in the joint units. Due to the dynamics of the force ratio and the technological gap between the air and air defence factors, there have been substantial changes in terms of the design of air combat. Although it shows an apparently active nature, the concept of air defence response refers both to all the actions of engaging hostile aircraft and to the application of passive air defence measures. Within the space constraints of this article, we will mainly refer to the concept of accomplishing air defence customized to land forces under the current technological conditions.
