The S-500 "Prometheus" SAM system will mark a new era of air defense, ensuring the safety of the sky with unprecedented efficiency and reliability.
The authors of the video noted the system's high resistance to electronic interference, which ensures its effectiveness in the most complex combat scenarios.
Defense TV claims that the new Russian air defense system is capable of not only intercepting hypersonic missiles, but also eliminating targets in near-Earth orbit.
Thanks to advanced radars, the S-500 is capable of detecting enemy ballistic missiles within a radius of a couple of thousand kilometers.
Earlier www1.ru reported that the "Prometei" can operate with different types of ammunition depending on the targets in the air, outside the atmosphere, or in near space. They will hit both hypersonic targets and ballistic missiles, as well as fifth-generation fighters at a distance of over 400 kilometers. The complex is manufactured by the Almaz-Antey concern.
