Borisov: state tests of the S-500 air defense system began

The newest anti-aircraft missile system S-500 "Prometheus" has entered the stage of state tests, which have already begun. This was stated by Deputy Prime Minister Yuri Borisov within the framework of the Army-2020 forum.

According to the Deputy Prime Minister, the S-500 has started state tests, and the procurement of components has already begun for the mass production of the anti-aircraft system.

Fact - state tests have begun, and today there is already a complete set, a simplified set of the S-500 is taking place, and there are already purchases of components for mass production.

- he said.

Earlier it was reported about testing individual elements of the S-500 air defense system. In 2019, missiles for the complex were tested, in April of the same year, preliminary tests of the radar complex (RLC) and the multifunctional radar station (radar) were reported. The final stage of testing the radars took place at the 185th Center for Combat Training and Combat Use of the Aerospace Forces, located in the Astrakhan region. In March this year, it became known about the tests of the launcher, the components of the multifunctional radar and the missile defense locator, equipped with a chassis for the command post, transport units for the early warning radar system.

The state armament program provides for the S-500 air defense system to be put on alert from 2025, but the pace of testing can say with confidence that the system will go into service earlier.

The S-500 will become the basis for a unified national air and missile defense (air defense-missile defense) system being created in Russia. The complex can be easily integrated into a single system with air defense systems of previous generations and other models of Russian production.

According to available information, the minimum set of equipment for the S-500 "Prometheus" will consist of a combat command post with an automatic control system (ACS), a radar complex, a multifunctional "illumination" radar and up to 12 anti-aircraft missile launchers based on Russian or Belarusian-made tractors. ...

So that's great! Successful passing of the State Tests and the earliest acceptance into service!
Good luck to all the participants in the State Tests, the right thing to do.

God help Russia in this! Such a universal air defense, the world did not know yet .. What I like most about it, it can also wet satellites .. And in modern warfare, who are the first communication satellites, etc. the enemy will be put out of action by that initiative.
I hope it will not come to this, but at least they will now reckon with Russia and stop persecuting and threatening Everyone is already tired of stupid threats and sanctions ..

[Charik]

will never stop poisoning Russia, even a hundred years ago, look at the newspapers, there is an evil bear (you mean Russia) scares everyone

[Connor MacLeod]

Communication satellites are in geostationary orbit. Unfortunately, the S-500 will not take them at such an altitude. If only to work on optical reconnaissance satellites.

[Orange bigg]

on the basis of tractors of Russian or Belarusian production.

It is relevant today that there is a choice and an alternative to Belarusian tractors, otherwise the situation there is unstable and it is not known how it will end, and then again it will be long and painful for us to substitute import. Despite the fact that the time was already spent on development.

If now they begin to publish any bravura dregs, then things are very bad.

We wish you successful tests and the fastest acceptance into service.

[Alexey Sommer]

Now it will start bombing at all the fugitives)
By the way, the C 400 was also first launched into a series in a simplified version, and all the protesters said, "Never will the missiles be new, for the 400 they will not fly!"
But no, we flew, and with the C 500, designers and workers will not fall face down either.
Air defense and missile defense, this is everything from time immemorial.

Farts)))) Yes, they will vulgarize it anyway, they are masters in this ..

[1976AG]

By the way, I would like to understand what the simplified version is.

[Alexey Sommer]

in s400 it consisted in the fact that at first there were missiles from s300, in s500 it is not yet known, but I think this is still s500)

[voyaka uh]

There are two types of missiles in the S-500. The first group - from the S-400, the second - long-range missiles made on the basis of missiles from the missile defense system of the Moscow region. They are placed on different launchers. And, apparently, they are controlled by different radars. General - the command post, where information from all radars is collected.

[Thrifty]

There, at the exhibition, one copy of the C500 stands for "especially important guests", as part of a private display. .. Moreover, not a model, but a fully combat-ready complex.

[Lord of the Sith]

Well done! More complexes, good and different, so that "Western partners" are afraid to fart in our direction))

[APASUS]

According to the Deputy Prime Minister, the S-500 has started state tests, and the procurement of components has already begun for the mass production of the anti-aircraft system.

This is logical, some samples of missiles for the S-400 are produced for up to 2 years. So they worried about earlier

they still stand there

[Vladimir_6]

The state armament program provides for the deployment of the S-500 air defense system on combat duty from 2025,

I wonder how things are with the A-235 missile defense system (Nudol development center)? Rocket launch video left a strong impression

[voyaka uh]

So have you seen the Nudol rocket?
Its diameter is twice that of rockets
complex S-400. With the same length.
The S-500 was made on its basis.

Just what everyone saw. Start-up in Sary-Shagan.
But my post is about the Nudol system, on the same topic as the "Hunter 2" about the S-500.

Successful passing of the State Tests and the earliest acceptance into service!

Our missile defense and air defense missiles must have an acceleration of 5 km per second per square meter, after 5 seconds the speed must be at least 15 km per second. At an altitude of up to 10 km, the speed should be from 30 km per second. In space from 200 km per second. Without such performance characteristics, our missiles cannot be defeated. Such technologies exist in Russia, they need to be implemented, patent RU 149598 "Device for controlling the flow around an aircraft". Aerodynamic drag is zero at the highest speeds. There are technologies to control the force of gravity. That is, it is possible to accelerate an aircraft in the atmosphere up to 50 km per second, in space more than 200 km per second. But the developers of outdated rocket technologies for some reason are modestly stupid. Maybe they don't understand anything in aeroelectrodynamics?

[Vdi73]

Well done our engineers. Hurry up and successfully carry out state tests and put on alert, let the Americans and their mongrels lake.
