Equipped with weapons forces of Russia intend to obtain the first set of anti-aircraft missile system s-500 in the coming year, said Deputy defense Minister Alexei Krivoruchko of the magazine " national defense ", may issue which will be published in a few days. according to his statement, the conclusion of the state contract for the purchase of s-500 is planned in 2021 for delivery in 2025. He said that is currently running on the stage of preliminary tests, " the material part is placed on the ground ". The supply of air defense system intercept long-range s-500 has been postponed many times in recent years. As stated by General designer of the concern of developed by "Almaz-Antey" Paul Sozinov, s-500 will be able to intercept targets hundreds of kilometers away from Earth. S-500 "Prometheus" (the OCD "Triumphant-M" ) refers to a new generation of air defense missile systems " earth-air ". It is a universal set of long-range and high-altitude interception with increased potential missile defense and is able to intercept ballistic missiles. A promising system is capable of hitting not only ballistic, but also aerodynamic targets (aircraft, helicopters and other air targets), as well as cruise missiles. The radius of the C-500 is about 600 kilometers. In addition, the system will be able to find and at the same time to hit up to ten ballistic supersonic targets flying at a speed of seven kilometers per second, and destroy the warheads of hypersonic missiles. according to its characteristics, the C-500 will be hard to beat standing in the armed s-400 and its us competitor, the Patriot Advanced Capability-3. <span style="color:darkgray
