Not exactly an air defence... But even more exciting: test launch of 53T6 (SH-08 Gazelle) anti-ballistic missile at Priozersk (better known as Sary-Shagan). During start, this missile experiences an acceleration of 200G and climbs to 30000 meters in just 5-6 seconds. Maximum speed exceeds 4000 m/sec. No detailed photos of the missile are ever published, since it is still top secret.
It's a long video, but more than worth watching.
