Before I can do a full review, there is a fundamental consideration of scope here. Is this article just about the 820th Main Centre for Missile Attack Warning of the Russian Federation, created in 2009? Or is it also about the predecessor warning systems and centres going well back into the Soviet Union? I think the latter is the case, since the article has material from 1971 on (and since that would be much more interesting and important). If so, then while the article name can remain the same, the lead section has to clearly indicate the historical scope of the article, and the names of the earlier instances of this network and centre have to be introduced in bold, and those names themselves have to be redirects to this article. Then, parts of this article have to reflect all aspects of this history. For example, where it says "... sent to the presidential 'nuclear briefcase' for authorisation ...", that's clearly a reference to the Russian president, but back in USSR, presumably it was the General Secretary who got it, with some different figures for backup and redundancy.
