Russian S-300 system spotted in US at test range
[ALMASDARNEWS] The US is known to have purchased at least one S-300 devoid of its electronics in the 1990s, with an American and Israeli military delegation reportedly sent to Ukraine last year to get acquainted with an upgraded version of the air defence system after Russia sent S-300s to Syria.A military blogger has posted a satellite photo of what he believes is an S-300 system operating at a test range "somewhere in the USA." The photo includes several of the system’s components, including 5P85PT launchers mounted on semi-trailers and its 30N6 fire control system. The blogger, who focuses on analysis of satellite data using Google Earth on his Twitter page, did not specify the system’s location, with no further information known about whether it was operational or merely a mockup. He deleted the original post after it started to be picked up by Russian media. Posted by: Fred 2019-05-14 |
