Russia has doubled production of missiles for the S-400 air defense systems – MWM
Russia has more than doubled production of missiles for the S-400 air defense systems by 2025, according to Military Watch Magazine (MWM). The publication notes that demand for these systems is high not only domestically but also internationally.
Demand for the S-400 from the Russian Aerospace Forces remains high, and Russia not only has outstanding orders from the Indian Ministry of Defense but also expects to receive new Indian orders under the current agreement. This follows from the high level of satisfaction expressed by Indian military leaders after the S-400 played a key role in air defense against Pakistan in May.
– MWM states.
The author of the publication emphasizes that the Russian Armed Forces currently have more than 35 regiments armed with S-400 systems, and investments in the procurement of this system have significantly exceeded investments in the procurement of all classes of fighter jets combined over the past three decades.
The S-400 has undergone repeated combat tests during the ongoing military operations in Ukraine, including with the longest-range missile, the 40N6. The missile overcomes its extremely long range due to the curvature of the Earth, using guidance data from either ground-based forward-deployed radars or airborne radars.
- emphasizes the publication.
Let us recall that earlier it became known that Türkiye refused Return the S-400 air defense systems supplied to Ankara to Russia. According to Turkish media, Moscow insisted on this due to a shortage of air defense systems.
