Surface-To-Air Missile System.
Surface-to-air missile system Triumph has been created for engagement of reconnaissance aircraft, UAVs, command post and detection radar aircraft, ECM aircraft as well as aircraft of tactical and strategic aviation, medium-range ballistic missile, hypersonic targets, advanced and state-of-the-art air attack means. SAMS S-400 was for the first time deployed in 2007.
Triumph was preceded by several generations of SAMS with index S.
In 1967 SAMS S-200 was deployed. It was able to engage targets at the distance up to 250 km. Therefore it got the informal name Long arm. S-200 gave place to SAMS of S-300P family Favourite. SAMS S-300 is the first in the world mobile system of long range which is able in some minutes to change from traveling to combat position and vertical missile launch allows to protect at 360 degrees as well as reduce number of launchers to complete task on coverage of high-security objects without concentrating the launchers into direction of threat.
In the Russian Army, today, the SAMS S-300PMU is being actively replaced by new SAMS S-400 Triumph.
Though the SAMS S-400 Triumph has been created on the base of acting Russian systems S-300 it owns considerably enhanced performance: by efficiency, coverage area as well as by target variety. By criteria “cost - efficiency” the new SAMS S-400 is approximately 2.5 times more efficient compared with outdated SAMS S-300. SAMS Triumph is the only system which is able to work selectively with several types of missiles both new and old development contained in S-300PMU-1 and S-300PMU-2. S-400 provides anti-aircraft echelon defence, its killing zone is increased, among other things it has essential prospects for updating.
