The 9M82M missile is intended to defeat tactical, theater, and medium-range ballistic missiles, as well as aerodynamic targets at a range of up to 200 km. The Antey-2500 system is mounted on a tracked cross-country vehicle equipped with self-contained power supply and navigation systems, as well as surveying and positioning equipment.

Variants

[edit]
  • S-300V: began operating in 1983; 100 km range
  • S-300VM: 250 km range[5]
  • S-300VMD: 350 km range
  • S-300V4: in service since 2014; 400 km range;[6][7] Antey-4000 are the export version.[8]

Operational history

[edit]

In early October 2016, a battery of Russian S-300V4 missile system was deployed to Syria,[9] at the Russian naval base in Tartus.[10] In early December 2020, the system entered combat duty on the Kuril Islands.[11]

On August 18, 2023, a Ukrainian drone captured videos of HIMARS artillery rockets destroying S-300V4 surface-to-air missiles in the Russo-Ukrainian War.[12]
