    I wonder if it need 40N6. Further development for 9M82 missile family is what it need, maybe it can have kinetic kill vehicle as THAAD thus it can match THAAD envelope without any physical modifications to the missile.

    "Antey-2500" is capable of hitting targets at a distance of 400 km - general designer

    New anti-aircraft missile system "Antey-2500" (export version of S-300V4) has in its arsenal of long-range missile, which is capable of, inter alia, to solve the problem of non-strategic missile defense, said in an interview to "Interfax-AVN" Chief Designer Concern PVO "Almaz-Antey" Paul Sozinov.

    "Significantly enhance the capacity for hitting range. We already live up to 400 km. This greatly facilitates the combat use of all other systems because it forces the jammers at a safe distance," - said P.Sozinov.

    According to him, the aircraft airborne patrol and control, such as AWACS, now can not enter with impunity in the 400-kilometer zone. Accordingly, the reduced ability to manage the attack and fighter aircraft. "The introduction of this kind of long-range missiles significantly alters the potential situation that may arise in the reflection of appropriate shocks" - said the general designer.

    Speaking about the new properties of S "Antey-2500" P.Sozinov also noted a high adaptability of the system. "If you look at the component parts, a lot had to alter or to do over again, thus ensuring the necessary quality and volume mass production. This AAMS, for example, implemented a specialized chassis. When creating this system, as well, and SAM" Tor-M2 "we walked the path does not restore some elements of production, and the creation of new analogues ", - he said.

    Responding to a question, consider it possible to create modifications "Antey-2500" on chassis P.Sozinov said that the corresponding project is already there. "Therefore, if there is a demand in the automobile chassis, we run it," - said the general designer.

    As I said, I'm not able to read russian language.
    Does someone know why we find a 48N6E drawing on a S-300V4 schematic?

    S-300V Army SAM System - Page 8 S300v4v5oh3qe6fm

    Maybe 48N6E in fact is this mysterious 400km missile which is also used in S-300V4 (9A83!) now?

    Whoever put that infographic together screwed up.

    The S-300V series is the Russian Army family of long range SAMs, which is not related to the S-300P missiles used by the Russian Air Force and Air Defence Forces, or the related S-300F used by the Russian Navy.

    That is to say the Navy and Air Force missiles (S-300F and S-300P) are related and externally look the same, but the S-300V looks totally different and has a completely separate family tree.

    Likely the person making this infographic found out the latest model S-300V4 has a range of 400km and assumed that was because it uses the 400km S-300 missile.

    It does not.

    Note in cyrillic C is S and B is V in English so C-300B4 is S-300V4.

    I always thought it would be a "southern military district" - now it is a "western district" which makes more sense to me.
    So it could be 202nd AD BGD Naro-Fominsk or 43rd AD BGD Znamensk.

    A S-400 Unit is usually organized in an AirDefence RGT consisting of 2 or 3 Battalions (Batteries) with 8 launchers each.

    May I asked whow a S-300V unit is organized?
    Here sometimes we speak about "Divison" or "Brigade" and sometimes "Battery".
    What is the basic structure (e.g. one BGD with 3 Batteries?)?
    And how many launchers of 9A83/9A83 do we have in a Battery?

    Thanks for any Info

    S-300P


    S-400 battery: shooting radar with its command post (92N6), up to 12 TEL units + search radar (usually 96L6)) -  can be strengthen accodring to evaluations + decoys + cammo nets
    S-400 regiment: (up to 8 S-400 batteries) + regimental command post (55K6) + regimental search radar (91N6) + ECM + Passive systems of detection + SHORADs + decoys + etc
    S-400 brigade: (2 S-400 regiments) + brigade level command post (Baikal-1M) + SHORADs + decoys + ECM units + cammo nets + passive detection systems .. etc

    now these are only units but they are highly developed and integrated within all other units forming integrated air defense

    So in the last posts of this thread we got the info that either "two divisional sets" or "three batteries" got S-300V4 in the "western military district".
    A single regiment would have 4 batteries - not just three. And what do they mean by "divisional sets"?
    Any ideas?

    And in this regard I made a mistake. I should have said "up to 4 batteries" in regards to S-300V4 regiment.

    Nowdays when the S-400 is just starting to come out in decent numbers and S-300V4 delivery is at its begginings it makes more sense to make a mix of new and

    old (modernized) system forming regiments and brigades because new systems will significantly increase combat efficiencies of the older systems too.

    In this regard I have been told that Russia actually produced higher number of 92N6 shooting radars/command post than the number of S-400 batteries exists today distributing them

    to an older defense systems but I could never verify such claim.

    On the other question. Divisional set can be regarded as a smallest functional unit in a PVO sense. Because of what you have situation where

    S-300PMU/400 battery divisional set equals battery but S-300V divisional set equals regimental streingth because smaller operational S-300V unit is a regiment not battery although

    journalist tend to call them battalions also. S-300P/400 battalion equals regimental set and the brigade is the same in both cases.

    Now strength of each S-300 PVO unit is subjected to change in relation to the emerging threats thus making even brigade level sets consisting from just 4 batteries possible.

    So "two divisional sets" could mean they re-equipped two regiments? And the statement in the other source "three batteries" could mean that they re-equipped one regiment (with 3 Batts) - right?

    Yes and no. With 3 batteries you can equip a newly formed regiment (consisting of two batteries) and with the one left you can add to some of the existing formation and still be able

    to said you have re-equipped another regiment with the new S-300V4 which would not be entirely true but still not entirely untrue Very Happy ... and than comes uneducated journalists

    with their writings like they are reporting from some street market so only by comparing lots of different sources on the same matter and using logic (which is your strongest weapon

    in this chaos) you will be able to come to some reasonable conclusions. Also there is a question of intelligence and counter-intelligence besides standard Russian practice to complicate

    things for any observer.

    Unsuccessful test of a modernised missile for the Antey-2500 at Plesetsk

    Missile fell shortly after launch from the Plesetsk cosmodrome on Wednesday , April 22, reports "Interfax" referring to the press service of the Almaz Antey concern. During the start-up the anti-aircraft missiles deviated from the desired path and activated the self destruct mechanism. The test cycle will continue in the future.

    Here are the known deployment sites

    Deployment

    6 Deployment sites 2015:
    --Yushno-Sachalinsk (Sachalin): 31st AD BGD?   (46.880575° 142.787908°)
    --Birobidzhan (Jewish Autonomous Oblast): 1724th AD RGT (ex 203rd AD BGD) (garrison 48.725628° 132.971802° - launch site 48.719151° 132,973342°)
    --Chebarkul (Tscheljabinsk): 28th AD BGD (1722nd AD RGT?) (55.002911° 60.371375°)
    --Naro-Fominsk (Moscow): 202nd AD BGD: since 2015 S-300V4 (55.408483° 36.741270°)
    --Znamensk (Kaliningrad): 43rd AD BGD (1545th AD RGT?) (garrison 54.602107° 21.233617° - launch site 54.601038° 21.238220°)
    --Gyumri (Armenia): 988th AD RGT (40.761287° 43.956965°)

    Previous locations (use History Layer in google earth):
    --Strugi Krasnye / Vladimirskyy Lager (Pskov):1544th AD RGT (58.206718° 29.061801°)
    --Tavrichanka (Primorskij): 8th AD BGD? (43.358464° 131.863060°)
    -- Pervomayskiy (Orenburg): 1722nd AD BGD (51.597513° 55.013695°) – changed location to Chebarkul and became 28th AD BGD

    It seems to be pointless to discuss Brigade or Regiment structure. This differs in the past for some S-300V units.
    The essential thing is that there are “Big Units” (you may call them Brigade or Regiment level) which consist of “smaller units” (you may call them Battalion or Battery level).
    The most garrisons (in google earth) do not suggest a full 4 Batt contingent. Many of them obviously have only 2 firing units (much like S-400 units)

    S-300V unit (= Brigade or Regiment level = big unit)

    Target detection unit:
    9S457 command post
    9S15 all-round surveillance radar
    9S19 sector surveillance radar

    Missile & technical support unit:
    -maintenance and repair equipment for all system components, as well as a missile integrated computer assisted functional testing unit
    -missile TLC (transport launch container) short term storage and transportation facilities , as well as a rigging equipment set for missiles loading/unloading
    -training aids

    S-300V firing unit (= Battalion or Battery  level  = sub unit)

    Up to 4 SAM firing units – (Russian Army often use only 2 firing units in each of the big units)
    Each firing unit has usually 6 TELs: This can be 9A83 or 9A82 only, or might be a mix of 9A83/9A82 TELs and
    3-6 LLVs 9A85 or 9A84, or a mix of 9A85/9A84 LLVs –
    Typical mix:
    4 TEL 9A83 with four 9M83 missile tubes each
    2 corresponding launcher-loader vehicles 9A85 with four 9M83 missile tubes each
    2 TEL 9A82 with two 9M82 missile tubes each
    1 corresponding launcher-loader vehicle 9A84 with two 9M82 missile tubes each
    Each launcher has at least the same amount of missles as reload

    P.S.: If someone has more information about the correct unit designations please let me know

    1. Have seen this as the 312th     Yushno-Sachalinsk (Sachalin): 31st AD BGD?   (46.880575° 142.787908°)
    2. Firing unit org is correct in regards to launch vehicles. This unit western equivalent would be a battery but is a battalion in Russian terminology. Usual translation calls it a division.
    3. My understanding is that there will be 20 of these spread amongst 10 Brigades or Regiments upon modernization. Probably some mixing with Buk-2 to form AD Brigades.
    4. A brigade used to represent 4 subunits while a regiment represented 2-3. It also can represent whither or not the unit is a mixed equipment or only of one type.

    5 brigades where introduced prior to SU breakup. Now Russia plans to form 9 S-300V4 brigades by 2020.
