The Russian construction conglomerate Krost, owned by Alexei Dobashin, has developed special towers for Pantsir air defense systems around Putin's residence. An investigation revealed that these multi-level structures, named Vyshka, are designed for air defense and electronic warfare systems. Krost applied for a patent in May 2024, which was granted in March 2025. The towers, made of prefabricated reinforced concrete, can be built in about 10 days and have already produced over 25 units. They are strategically placed near military installations and oil refineries to protect against Ukrainian drone attacks. By October 2026, over 50 air defense positions were established around Putin's residence.
