The powerful defensive capabilities of the S-400 air defense missile system are superior even to the vaunted American Patriot. This was stated by analysts of the Chinese edition Baijiahao.
The “Lord of Missiles”, the S-400 SAM has taken the title of the most advanced anti-aircraft missile system from the American Patriot. It will intercept any threat and deter all of Moscow’s enemies,” the analysts concluded.
The weight of one S-400 missile is equivalent to two Patriot missiles, and the range is twice as much. One of the advantages of the Russian system is that it is capable of firing different types of missiles. In addition, a special 40H6 projectile can be launched, which increases the range of the S-400 to 400 kilometres, making it the longest-range surface-to-air missile in the world, experts said.
The maximum intercept range of the Russian SAM is five times greater than that of the Patriot. This allows the air defense system to build a multi-level defense for Russia, as well as to deter adversaries from a possible attack, according to China.
