They defended the skies over major industrial centers, shielded troops from enemy air raids, repelled attacks on transport hubs, and saved the lives of millions of people.In the post-war period (1945–1991), Air Defense Forces transitioned to peacetime manning levels and served as the nation's shield during the Cold War, evolving from anti-aircraft artillery to sophisticated missile systems and radar networks.
