The first set of S-350 Vityaz air defense systems entered service with the Russian Aerospace Forces

The first S-350 Vityaz anti-aircraft missile system officially entered service with the Aerospace Forces (VKS), the latest complex calculations have already begun to master the technology at the training center in Gatchina. This was reported by the press service of the Ministry of Defense.

The first newest complex of anti-aircraft missile troops S-350 "Vityaz" entered the VKS - recently the complex arrived at the training center of anti-aircraft missile forces in Gatchina

- said in a statement.

The capabilities of the new complex were demonstrated to reporters. Calculations C-350 conducted a training to detect and destroy a conventional enemy.

The combat crew of the S-350 air defense system demonstrated its skills, destroyed electronic firing of a conditional enemy and made a march to a new position area

- added to the military department.

The transfer of the first S-350 Vityaz air defense system to the anti-aircraft regiment of the Russian Aerospace Forces was reported in December 20th. The transfer took place at the Kapustin Yar training ground in the Astrakhan region. The equipment was supposed to arrive in the Leningrad Region in January this year.

The S-350 Vityaz air defense system is a medium-range complex used to organize air defense of important administrative or military targets against air strikes of various means. It is focused on the creation of multi-stage protection, ensuring the safety of the airspace of the state. SAM can hit manned Aviation (airplanes, helicopters) drones, as well as cruise and ballistic missiles. In addition, it is able to prevent impacts from low-flying objects. The complex is designed to replace the S-300PS and Buk-M1-2 in the troops.

SAM "Vityaz" is able to work in automatic mode, in which the calculation ensures the deployment of air defense systems and control over the actions of the system. The maximum number of simultaneously hit aerodynamic targets - 16, ballistic - 12. The maximum range of destruction - 60 km, height - 30 km. The deployment time of the system in the combat position - 5 minutes.

A complex similar to the Buk M3 in terms of parameters? It seems like the altitude is higher, the number of targets is greater ... in short, there is never too much air defense. Otherwise, jackals will bomb them ... they have a lot of planes ...

Since the difference is only in the speed of deployment and cross-country ability of the chassis, this is all solved

Incomprehensible figures of 60 km in range and 30 km in height. Maybe you mean when working on ballistic missiles? So it should work at 150 km.

Maritime unification
Together with the Vityaz S-350, the designers of the Almaz-Antey Concern developed the latest Polement-Redut air defense system. Both systems are unified, which involves the production of the same type of structural elements, components, assemblies, systems, launchers and ammunition, which are equipped with various weapons systems. Military experts note that this approach allows significant savings on the organization of mass production, as well as improve the operational characteristics of air defense systems.

"Polement-Redoubt" is designed to protect the destroyers, frigates and corvettes of the Navy from an air attack. At present, Poliment-Redut is installed on the frigate Admiral Gorshkov and the Soobrazitelny corvette.
The complex is capable of hitting enemy aircraft, cruise and anti-ship missiles of the enemy at ranges of up to 150 km. The Poliment-Redut marine complex is equipped with 9M100, 9M96, and 9M96D missiles.

In addition, the developers of the complex claim that in the coming years a unified air defense missile based on 40N6 ammunition for the S-400 and S-500 systems will be developed for unified air defense systems. This new projectile will allow the air defense system to intercept air targets at a distance of up to 400 km.

Where did you get the figure of 30 km for ballistic targets?

The maximum range of defeat is 60 km, height - 30 km.

This is data on the work on ballistic targets, which is comparable to the Patriot PAC-3 ERINT missile defense. The data on the S-350 with missiles to work on ballistic targets.
There are missiles for the S-350 with air defense functions for aerodynamic targets of 150 km in range and 30-35 km in height. It is comparable in performance characteristics with the Patriot PAC-3 MSE air defense.

from the officially known characteristics of the complex

[Romario_Argo]

Where did you get the figure of 30 km for ballistic targets?

many non-docking
this is due to the speed of 9M96E2 missiles in 2100 m / s.
and with a deceleration of the warhead upon entering the atmosphere, at an altitude of 30 km. will be up to 2000 m / s.
at an altitude of 60 km - up to 5000 m / s. - S-350 can work on targets with a speed of up to 4800 m / s.

[Lord of the Sith]

Good news, I’ve been waiting for several years.
It is planned that Vityaz will replace the S-300PS and Buk-M1-2.

[Zaurbek]

The missiles also have a belt with engines to increase maneuverability ... do BukM3 missiles have such?

[sivuch]

NYA - control at 317 only aerodynamic. And so 317A is very expensive

Andrei, Good day!
Tell me, why does the ATS need an air defense system that has recently been put into service, with not eliminated "childhood sores" and poorly mastered by personnel? For at least two or three years, the S-350 will undergo military tests and be tested in the mode of carrying the database on Russian territory.

So for these products in Syria it was possible to organize real shooting in the setting. as close to combat.
And what kind of firing can the S-350 have? They in Syria, except that folding-deployment and march to work out. For the militants of the Air Force do not, and it’s not kosher to touch everyone else.

[sivuch]

regarding Su-57 - there was such an assumption on the abaza (if anything - AAZ is working / al in the dry bureau)
M.I.K.> Problems with new technology in the new region are a given. Or do you think ours just drove the Su-57 to Syria?
Can anyone really think that in 2 (two) days it is possible, at least in the first approximation, to assess "problems with new technology in a new region"? :)
In a dark bus some scoundrel told me "© that someone came up with a bright idea to" touch "the Su-57 radar station of the Israeli F-35. Nuacho? And they flew.
However, the Israelis did not want to substitute themselves (just in preparation for takeoff of the 57s, they quickly flopped to the ground - there were enough informants around our a / b). But our resources of the RTR "potential enemy" were substituted in full.
As a result, the command "Quickly return everything back!" Followed, and the authors and "supporters" of the bright idea got rid of sickly people from the authorities.

Syria is, first of all, today a large training ground where everyone who is not lazy is testing their military technologies. So why should the Russian Federation be an exception? After all, you yourself know that nothing pushes military technologies and weapon upgrades so much as real DBs, and moreover, the larger they are, the better for a new weapon, no matter how cynical it sounds.

This is true when equipment and weapons are brought to the required level of combat readiness and technical reliability. Are you aware of the epic with the Su-35S when this machine was adopted and when did you start carrying out the database? And this is in the lead 23rd IAP, which is based on the same airfield as the manufacturer.

quote from the article - Maximum destruction range - 60 km, altitude - 30 km, somewhere here a typo .... 120-150 range then)) and well, no matter how not 60 .... its marine version is Polement- Redoubt to 150, and the ground one is 60)) ??

[Sky strike fighter]

60 km destruction range and 30 km destruction height is most likely in the S-350 missile variant. And 150 km destruction range for work on aerodynamic targets. By analogy with the Patriot PAC-3 ERINT missile defense, which is sharpened for work on ballistic missiles with a range of up to 1000 km and has a range of destruction of about 60 km and a height of destruction of 20-30 km. Then, as the Patriot PAC-3 MSE air defense is ground for work on aerodynamic targets at a distance of about 120 km and an altitude of 30 km. Most likely, the S-350 set entered service in the missile defense version.

in what place is it normal? How much did Pliment Redoubt bring? How long did the long-range missile for the S-400 finish ??? (Triumph, having entered the database many years ago, was in fact a version of the S-300). Vityaz waited by 2016 ... And the list goes on for a long time ..
In addition, you apparently have a rainbow-like picture from what prototypes say and show. Yes, we have a lot of experienced ones, this cannot be taken away, OCD and R&D are going on. . And how many of them are in the troops ??? Indeed, only they standing on the database can actually shoot.

The article talks about the object air defense system - the medium-range air defense missile system S-350 "Vityaz"

[Imperial Technocrat]

Maximum range of defeat - 60 km

Actually, 120km. There are still medium-range missiles

[Sky strike fighter]

60 km for ballistic targets, 150 km for aerodynamic targets for missiles, respectively with missile defense functions in the first case and with air defense functions in the second. This is the same as with the Americans Patriot PAC-3 ERINT and Patriot PAC-3 MSE missile defense. There is only one system, and there are missiles for missile defense (up to 1000 km in ballistic missile defense), and there are for air defense.

[Grigory_45]

Quote: Sky Strike fighter

60 km for ballistic targets

Doesn’t it bother you that 60 km in ballistics has the S-400, a much more sophisticated complex and with more powerful missiles?
And do not compare the S-350 with the Patriot with its missile defense. Completely different systems.
The main purpose of Vityaz is to combat massive attacks of low-flying aircraft at ranges greater than those of the Shell, for targets for which expensive S-400 missiles (which are also in limited numbers) are unprofitable

[NF68]

Good news.

[Sarcasm]

Indeed - "Better late than never!" ...

The T-90, and probably the domestic tank building in general, was saved by the Indians with their order, thanks to the Koreans for the Vityaz air defense system.
From an interview with I. Ashurbeyli:
"- What is the state of the program of the new Vityaz anti-aircraft missile system?

- The story is very simple. We could not reach out in due time - under the previous leadership of the country until 2000 - that a new modern medium-range complex was needed in Russia, since more than 50 S-300PS complexes simply ceased to exist by 2015 due to the achievement of deadlines and must be disposed of. Need a replacement. Not reached. After that, we won an international tender with the Americans and the French in South Korea. And they concluded with considerable difficulties an export contract to develop for her such a medium-range complex - KM-SAM. We learned to work with imported elemental base - there were no restrictions. We have already successfully delivered two locators there and now we are supplying the third one. In Korea, firing with their missiles at their targets is already underway.

Before the departure, the leadership of the Ministry of Defense (Russia. - "Kommersant") was invited and showed a working South Korean model in the shop, after which the experimental design work was also open for the Russian army - with a different look and other improved tactical and technical characteristics. This work has been going on since 2007 in record time. We have been assigned the task of making new equipment from scratch in five years. Such tasks were solved in five years only during the time of Lavrenty Beria, when Almaz (then KB-1 - Kommersant) made the first S-25 air defense systems for Moscow in five years. Now we are working on the stage of creating design documentation. Next year - a prototype, and in 2013 we must complete state tests. ".
