Russian Armed Forces will receive S-500 SAMs earlier than originally announced

The state armament program provided that testing of the new S-500 "Prometheus" air defense systems will begin this year, and by 2025 they will go into service with the army. But the pace of work allowed changes to be made, so the troops will receive complexes much earlier than the announced deadlines.

This was told by Deputy Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation Alexei Krivoruchko in his article published in a corporate publication "Radio electronic technology" concern with the same name.

The deputy minister said that in the air defense missile defense forces of the Russian Federation last year tests of the latest systems were successfully carried out, so in 2020 they can begin to be transferred to the armed forces of the country.

Krivoruchko says that in the world there are no weapons systems whose characteristics could be compared with the S-500 Prometheus. The range of target destruction by missiles of this complex is over 480 kilometers, which exceeds the range of the most advanced foreign counterparts. This result was shown by tests.

The main purpose of the new systems is to counter medium-range ballistic missiles, as well as ICBMs (intercontinental ballistic missiles).

The possibility of acquiring the S-500 has already become interested in Turkey, as stated by the President of this country, Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

[Russian Moldavian]

The dates are not always shifted to the right, it’s good, all the same, the system of strategic importance

[mark1]

Yes, how much can be shifted. They said last year that deliveries would begin in the 20th year (though there were also a lot of interim deadlines before this date) and it suddenly became clear that, if it was absolutely right, not in the 20th but at 25. Good. that you change your mind, God forbid, finally.

[krot]

Next in line is S-600)

[Lexus]

If only it did not work out, as with the S-400. For ten years he stood with old missiles and only last year 40H6 brought to mind, and then, with the characteristics below the planned. And 9M96 is still not massively introduced into the BC.

Wolfovich has already announced the S700. Waiting for

Spit three times. So far, these are only plans and rejoice too early. How many times was it that there were many reasons and plans shifted. That's when the delivery of complexes to the troops begins, then we will be glad.

[figwam]

therefore, in 2020, they can begin to transfer them to the armed forces of the country.

One gets the feeling that in a hurry.

Well, has the sale already gone?

Good evening, Stepan

Well, has the sale already gone?

The store has not yet opened, but there is already a queue. We are waiting for the goods to arrive. I stand behind that man. And you will follow me

[bayard]

Last year, the first set was handed over to the training center, and this year plans to begin deliveries to the troops. They talked about this a year ago. Once the first set went and was successfully tested, then it is time for the troops. We will wait for deliveries to the troops - we will rejoice, perhaps at the end of this year.

Here he would just walk the forest with his Wishlist. Nervous, he is some kind of ally of that one and will look in the back.

[ul_vitalii]

Yes, let him buy it, but in the end he will get S-499 and all sorts of tenths, horseradish in my country house is growing.

[gurzuf]

Let Crimea be recognized as Russian from the beginning ... then we will think.

Let him buy a musical apparatus without a pipe, as in a famous film.

Putin saved his life, but he is spinning around in the Crimea! Next time I’ll go to ignore!

The last lines about Turkey - a fly in the ointment to the whole article.

[Hunter 2]

Well, that’s the good news!
Erdogan - do not Sell !!! Let from afar - Interested in ...

[ul_vitalii]

Booklets to him for a start.

Erdogan needs to sell training models .. from the S-500.

But these tomatoes do not choke, do not crumple and from the wall, as the balls bounce. You can carry in dump trucks for thousands of kilometers. Plastic, however.

This is a good thing, ahead of schedule worked on RSD especially pleased

Good deal, no questions asked. But about the sales of Turkey, especially in the light of recent events - no, really.

From the "dead Crimean donkey" ears, not the S-500. With such "friends" and enemies are not necessary

[Sergey Averchenkov]

I wonder how 400 differs from 500. No, I'm happy for us, but how?

[Kerensky]

and how 400 differs from 500

Sergey.
I also wanted to ask this question. Is this a full-fledged product or is the increase in the index due to "some improvements"?

[Kasym]

Range of course. A new rocket must have appeared. The "extreme" public development, 40N6E, is on the S-400, with a range of 380 km. And on the S-500 "over 480 km".
The S-500 is most likely a missile defense system, according to what was written. Medium-range ballistic missiles and ICBMs. S-400 "is designed to destroy all modern and advanced air-space attack weapons."
Surely the electronics are different. The radar should continue to "see" with target identification capability.

[Sergey Averchenkov]

Thanks. Thank you for the explanation.

[polk26l]

It is reported that Erdogan seems to have become interested in the S - 500, this sworn "friend" holding a crooked dagger behind his back is absolutely forbidden to sell this complex, as, in principle, to anyone else !!! It's time to finally think with your head and not with venal ones .. Mi, what can be traded and what is not! First of all, you need to re-equip your own Armed Forces and Air Defense, and then, when our scientists come up with something more advanced, and the industry will manufacture and transfer the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, then you can think to whom you can sell these complexes !!! Look how he behaved earlier, in relation to the Russian Federation and how is this newly-minted Turkish "Pasha" behaving now ?! Syria and Crimea alone with Ukraine are worth something! In fact, he is the enemy! And ours bow before him !!! They spit in us, but ours just wipe themselves off and humiliate themselves !!! And the enemies from the 5th column in the Russian Federation, it would be time to more actively identify and neutralize !!!

[Thrifty]

The Turks need to show where the sleeve is sewn from, not the C500! They attacked Syria, they and the latest complexes in kridit, that is, literally, at our expense!

[Prjanik]

I am glad that the main priority and resources are given to strategic weapons.

[Givi_49]

What medium-range ballistic missiles threaten Turkey? Just wondering.

[Zoro]

They love to present different surprises in Russia (especially in terms of weapons) .. Everyone is all whining, everything is gone, but weakly to the Russians .. And then they put the hop on combat duty (Avangards "for example .. Or in the same Crimea and Syria .. I think the S-500 is already in the series, they keep quiet ..

[Charik]

already rolled on the 500th lip

[Rostislav]

Here the sultan has fought. He accuses Russia of supporting the advance of the SAA, our officers died at the hands of the broads supported by the Turks, and this son of donkey C500 is interested!

Oh my God. Again!?
Fuck these chocks of fellow thugs in Syria

[stepka_razin]

Here's how to do it and report
And then already the T-14 is more than 2000 with the start of production in 15, and the SU-57, which every year, within the limits of what time, were "put" into serial production

[Ros 56]

The tension in the world is growing right before our eyes. And therefore, the air defense and anti-missile defense must be brought to perfection, preferably with 100% reliability, although this is unfortunately unattainable.

[Ax Matt]

Let Erdogan decide for himself and for us: whose Crimea? It will depend on his answer: he will receive (maybe!) The S-500 or ... he will grind it down. And how he was saved from a coup, so "dear friend Vladimir", and as with Kiev on armaments to stir up 50 million, so "the illegal annexation of Crimea."

[Old26]

The deputy minister said that in the air defense missile defense forces of the Russian Federation last year tests of the latest systems were successfully carried out, so in 2020 they can begin to be transferred to the armed forces of the country.

That was supposed to transfer in 2025, and then "suddenly" decided to transfer in 2020? So, how at one time the S-400 was transferred to the troops without the 40N6 long-range missile, which was transferred to the troops after 10 years ???
This acceleration of transmission says only one thing. Some missiles are not yet available and will not be available in the next year or two. And the S-500 will be handed over in a "cut-down" state in terms of the missile nomenclature ...

Well, the S-400 is also capable of intercepting MRBMs with a launch range of 3500 km. At a distance of 60 km. Initially, it was planned to introduce an anti-missile into the complex. Therefore, you can really call it an air defense-missile defense system. But what is capable of intercepting ICBMs - "doubts torment"
