The American edition of National Interest called the Russian weapon, which is better not to joke. We are talking about the S-400 anti-aircraft missile systems.


The material emphasizes that the US authorities are trying to threaten sanctions to those countries that wish to acquire this type of weapon from Russia. But, despite all such threats, many states would like to purchase the S-400. Among them are China and India. And the air forces of any country would not want to meet them in a real battle.

It is noted that SAM data can track any target in the sky and simultaneously launch four different types of missiles. As a result of this, one complex can almost completely replace the entire echeloned defense system.

The article tells about the history of the development of modern Russian air defense systems. So, back in the 60s of the last century, the development of the S-300 began in the Soviet Union. Over all these decades, the complexes were constantly improved, new modifications were made. The author of the material calls the early version of modern S-400 a modification of the S-300PMU-2.

In a word, it is better for a potential adversary not to test the defense capability of the S-400 in practice. It is not surprising that other countries would like to purchase such machinery Russia and even Washington’s threats do not really scare them.
