Russian Ministry of Defense placed an order with Almaz-Antey for ten S-500 missile systems.
“Russian defense ministry signed a contract with VKO Almaz-Antey on shipment of over 10 Prometey systems to the Aerospace forces. Serial shipments will begin in the first half of 2022,” a source in the military-industrial complex was quoted as saying by government-owned TASS Thursday.
State trials of the S-500 are currently underway in southern Russia. The trials are expected to wrap up in late 2021, the source added.
