Historical and operational description

The S-300V was developed to counter a wide spectrum of airborne targets: short- and medium-range ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, fighters, bombers, as well as reconnaissance and electronic warfare aircraft. The creation of the system was a response to the growing threat to Soviet military and industrial sites posed by American Lance and Pershing missiles. The first elements were introduced in 1983, and full equipment of the Soviet Army was completed in 1988. The S-300V is fully mobile thanks to its tracked chassis, with engagement capabilities that cover distances up to 100 km and altitudes up to 30 km.
