Maj. Gen. Sean Gainey, Director, Joint C-UAS Office (JCO) and Director, Fires in the G3/5/7, HQ Department of the Army, speaks with the commander of 5th Battalion, 7th Air Defense Artillery, Lt. Col. Steven Rachamim, at a forward deployed air defense position in southeast Poland on Jan. 10, 2023.
Two batteries of the 5th Battalion, 7th Air Defense Artillery Regiment, a part of the 10th Army Air & Missile Defense Command, deployed to Poland from their home base in Baumholder, Germany in February 2022, just days after Russia’s unprovoked invasion of the sovereign European nation of Ukraine.
The deployment of these air & missile defense systems is purely defensive. They contribute to the robust shielding provided along NATO’s Eastern flank.
