1544th Anti-Aircraft Missile Regiment
Identification
The supplied placemarks best match the Vladimirsky Lager garrison in Strugo-Krasnensky District, Pskov Oblast, not the regiment’s older Nenimyaki association in Leningrad Oblast. Official Pskov regional utility records identify a military town of unit 55584 at Vladimirsky Lager, which fits the unit number and the Pskov-area coordinates in the metadata.

Command
Open-source force-structure references place the 1544th Anti-Aircraft Missile Regiment under the 2nd Air Defense Division of the 6th Air and Air Defense Forces Army. A 2021 CNA Western Military District order-of-battle lists the 1544th among the division’s air-defense regiments, and division history references show the formation in the 6th army structure from 2015.

Infrastructure
This is a substantial permanent military town rather than only a field launcher site. Official regional records tied to unit 55584 at Vladimirsky Lager list power substations, water and sewage infrastructure, boiler and utility nodes, housing blocks, a school, medical facilities, postal and banking points, and other support buildings; the locality also has a named railway station, which likely supports sustainment and heavy-cargo access.

Equipment
Public reporting on the regiment’s missile inventory is mixed. Open-source reporting from 2018 said the Vladimirsky Lager regiment received two S-400 battalions, and later public force listings continue to associate the regiment with S-400; however, other compilations describe a mixed regiment, and older geolocation reporting tied the area to S-300-era positions. The exact current launcher mix at the supplied pads is therefore not publicly confirmed.

Operational relevance
Geographically, the regiment sits in the Strugi Krasnye/Vladimirsky Lager military area on the Pskov axis within northwest Russia’s wider air-defense network. CNA describes the 6th Air and Air Defense Army as part of an integrated layered air-defense system for western Russia and notes major SAM reinforcement around St. Petersburg; this places one of that network’s regiments deeper in Pskov Oblast.
