Another Triumph Division will defend the Crimea

The fourth division of the ZRMS S-400 Triumph will be delivered to the Crimea by the end of this year to strengthen the air defense forces located on the peninsula.

Recall, at the moment, in the armament of the air defense of the Crimea, there are already three divisions of the S-400 anti-aircraft missile system. The first division was delivered to the peninsula at the very beginning of 2017. His place of deployment - the area of ​​the city of Feodosia. The second division began combat duty exactly one year later, in January 2018. Its complexes were installed in Sevastopol. The main task of the second division is to protect the peaceful sky over Chongar and Armenian, as well as to control the Russian-Ukrainian border. The third division was deployed near Evpatoria a couple of months ago. Where the fourth division will be deployed, alas, is not reported.

As commented in the command of the Southern Military District, previously the Triumph Division successfully completed the first docking at the State Central Interspecific training ground located in the Astrakhan Region. Combat missions hit targets that mimic low-flying, speed and ballistic targets.

By the way, the Triumph SAMs are the brainchild of the Almaz-Antey military concern. This anti-aircraft missile system can shoot down flying objects at an altitude of 5 meters and at a distance of up to 400 kilometers. Thus, the S-400 is a serious threat to almost any air attack: from aircraft of any type and cruise missiles to intercontinental ballistic missiles. S-400 radars have the ability to detect a flying enemy over 600 km. And with his defeat can be used simultaneously missiles of different types.

Recall that the C-400 has recently guarded the peaceful sky of Syria.
