No single entity controls the skies of the Southern Caucasus; control is fragmented and contested, with Russia maintaining significant air power in Armenia and having a history of regional dominance, while Azerbaijan is rapidly strengthening its own air and missile defense capabilities with systems from Russia, Israel, and China. This creates a complex and evolving security landscape where neither Russia nor any other single power holds a total monopoly over the skies, with Azerbaijan’s growing military strength and its pursuit of diverse partnerships also contributing to this dynamic balance.
