Turkey's S-400 Air Defense Missile System is Fully Operated and Ready for Use
Thursday, 11/24-2022
According to information released by the Turkish Defense Ministry, the Russian-made S-400 air defense missile system that Türkiye purchased from Russia is ready for action and will be used if the country is threatened, Turkish Defense Minister Hulusi Akar said.
It was reported by the A-Haber television channel that Turkish Defense Minister Hulusi Akar announced that the Russian-made S-400 air defense missile system is fully operational in the Turkish armed forces and is ready for use.
Turkey has purchased four S-400 air defense units from Russia for $2.5 billion. The arms export agency Rosoboronexport said in October 2019 that the contract had been fulfilled.
Russia and Turkey signed a contract for the delivery of the S-400 air defense system in 2017. Turkey became the first NATO member to purchase this system (S-400) from Russia. Ankara's decision provoked a strong reaction from the US and the alliance in general. The US continues its efforts to force Turkey to reject the Russian system.
The S-400 is a mobile air defense missile system developed by the Russian company Almaz Central Design Bureau. It is designed to attack aircraft, unmanned aerial vehicles, cruise missiles, and ballistic missiles. The S-400 battery includes a command-and-control system, one surveillance radar, one engagement radar, and four TELs (Transporter Erector Launcher).
The S-400 can launch four different types of missiles including the short-range 9M96E (40km), medium-range 9M96E2 (120km), long-range 48N6 (250km), and very long-range 40N6E (400km).
