The S-300VM "Antey-2500" (Template:Lang-ru, NATO reporting name SA-23 Gladiator/Giant) is a Russian anti-ballistic missile system. The system is designed to target short- and medium-range ballistic missiles, aeroballistic missiles, cruise missiles, fixed-wing aircraft, loitering ECM platforms, and precision-guided munitions.

Structure

Components

The Antey-2500 air defense missile system features:

  • Battle performance automation due to high-speed digital computers
  • Passive electronically scanned array radars with advanced data processing methods
  • High ECM immunity
  • High mobility and autonomous operation
  • High firepower potential, irrespective of air attack tactics or sequence
  • Vertical launch from a special transport launch canister
  • Maintenance-free operation of missiles for at least ten years
  • Capability to defeat ballistic missile individual warheads
  • Inertial guidance with radio command mid-course update and semi-active radar homing at the terminal phase
  • Focused detonation of the missile warhead

The Antey-2500 system comprises:

  • Command post
  • Circular and sector scan radars
  • A Multichannel Missile Guidance Station (MMGS) which has 24 channels for illumination of 24 targets
  • 9A82M launcher (typical amount of 8 missiles) which includes radar of illumination, targeting, and internals of the radar[4]
  • 9A83M launcher (typical amount of 12 missiles) which includes radar of illumination, targeting, and internals of the radar[4]
  • 9A84M and 9A85M loader-launcher (technical maximum of 24 missiles)
  • 9M82M and 9M83M air defense missiles
  • Maintenance, repair, and transport of vehicles
  • Group SPTA set
  • Electronic trainer for MMGS operators
  • Set of missile handling equipment

Technical ability to use 1-2 additional battalions.

Missile

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

  • 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

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]

    • Modernization of all S-300V to the version S-300V4 was to end in 2012.[16]
  •  Egypt: The S-300VM "Antey-2500" missile system was ordered in 2014, as part of a multi-billion Egyptian-Russian arms deal signed later that year.[17][18] The $1 billion contract comprises 4 batteries, a command post, and other external elements.[19][20] In 2015, Russia started delivering the system components, and Egyptian soldiers began their training in Russian training centers.[21] By the end of 2017, all batteries were delivered to Egypt.[22] Russia is in talks with Egypt on the delivery of additional Antey-2500 systems.[23]
  •  Venezuela: 2 S-300VM in 1 air defense battalion at Base Aérea Militar Capitán Manuel Ríos[24]
  •  India: 6 S-300VM Regiments. 18 Launchers in each regiment. Bought in late 2006.

Potential operators

  •  Algeria: In November 2015 Algeria was negotiating the purchase of several battalions of this system.[25]

Failed bids

  •  Turkey: Turkey was in talks with Russian officials for a co-production deal before the Sukhoi Su-24 shootdown incident.[26][27]
