Russia Activates Air Defense Missile System "To Guard Its Southern Frontiers"
Just a month after announcing plans to deploy its newest S-500 air defense systems to protect Moscow and central regions, Xinhua reports that Russia has activated an air defense regiment armed with advanced S-400 surface-to-air missile systems in the Southern Military District to guard its southern frontiers. Furthermore, a spokesperson for Russia's Aerospace Defense Forces, said that 12 missile regiments will receive the S-400 systems, as it seems NATO's moves are prompting retaliatory advances by Russia.
As Xinhua reports, Russia activates S-400 missile systems in south to guard frontiers
Russia has activated an air defense regiment armed with advanced S-400 surface-to-air missile systems in the Southern Military District to guard its southern frontiers, the Russian military said Tuesday.
"An air defense missile regiment from the Fourth Command of the Air Force and Air Defense entered into service in the Krasnodar region. It is equipped with S-400 Triumph advanced missile systems and Pantsir-S air defense missile and gun complex," the Southern Military District's press service said in a statement.
Earlier this month, the S-400 systems arrived at their permanent base after completing tests at the Ashuluk firing range in southern Astrakhan region.
During the tests, they successfully destroyed high-speed targets simulating incoming ballistic missiles and other aerial targets.
In August, Russia also announced plans to deploy its newest S-500 air defense systems to protect Moscow and central regions.
Alexei Zolotukhin, a spokesperson for Russia's Aerospace Defense Forces, said Monday that 12 missile regiments will receive the S-400 systems by 2020.
The S-400 system, which can engage targets at a maximum range of up to 400 km at an altitude of 40,000-50,000 meters, is expected to form the cornerstone of Russia's air defense by 2020.
The S-500 systems will have an extended range of up to 600 km and is capable of engaging up to 10 targets simultaneously.

Bullish.
OK, I give up..
How do you drop the mortar shell into those things?
Russian armnaments, weapons that would go through hell and keep on firing. US arms, look at them they fall apart.
I don't know about that. One thing US does well it make arms
They should put some Realtree or Mossy Oak camo on those tubes.
Something is up...
Washington needs some of those to protect the White House from intruders.
Wow! They look BIG
Patriot missile system: good at taking out sugar-engine Palistinian model rockets (sometimes); most recent upgrade is called Patriot Advanced Affordable Capability-4 [not a typo... sigh...]
Triumf: 40N6 good for 400km, anti-jamming, anti-stealth radar, can take out supersonic cruise and ballistic intert kinetic missiles
Where do you light the fuse?
it's not only nato, apparently. russia shares the southern border also with china who had recently lined up troops of 12-15K strong down there. this went quite unnoticed in the news.

edit: i can't validate previous source, but this article seems to indicate that china and russia don't trust each other, which is quite reasonable as china is colonising far east of russia piecemeal with its workforce. china will probably turn its guns towards russia after the west has been destroyed, just like happened between the soviet union and the nazi germany regardless of their Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact.
Spot on. Russia has to dance between two large agressors. China has been teaching their children for decades that the eastern part of Russia is their heritage and sending males across the border to work and breed with the women. Many russian men in that region drink themselves to death.
Russia has to be friendly with China now, but it's a friendly smile with the hand resting on the gun.
While we put our money into anti-IED defenses. Talk about generals preparing to fight the last war.
If by, "does well," you mean to say goes way overbudget, is late by several years, does not perform to spec,... then I'd have to agree. I hear it's a profitable business. For some. Look at the F-35; 7 years late, billions over budget, a do-it-all plane that does nothing well. What we used to call a gyp.
Russia learned in WW2 to make easily mass produced, easily field maintanable arms. Yeah the Panzer V's were better on paper, but the T34s took them apart . Drop an AK47 in the mud, and it still fires, I hear. Look up the AS Val and the VSS Vintorez.
drop an AK47 in the mud for a year, take him out, shake him and it still fires

M1 Garand. The USA of the 20th century made superior arms. Now? Not so much.
After the M14 US small arm design went to shit.
Hobo..agreed, Russian kit might not be the latest or greatest, but they are not super sensitive, subject to recall ad nauseum. USAF had a winner with the A-10 Warthog that was consistently blocked during the 70s and 80s by USAF bean counters and generals because it didn't go fast. But what a success. Many fine features, among them a titanium bathtub to protect the pilot. Redundant systems. Now it is being decommisioned. In a few years, we'll be able to buy a better copy from Russia.
FORWARD SOVIET!
+100 Retiring the A-10 makes no sense except as part of the marketing push for the new vaporware.
Smells like... corruption.
Sure about that? What about the F-35, the flying garbage truck, or the original M16? The MIC cares about profits before protecting the lives of the armed forces.
Yep ,look at the Army A.C.U. camo pattern......
Wothless!
Lots of soldiers died over that greedy move.
like the f-35?

They announced that they are taking their previously designed system similar to Iron Dome and updating it. They said they didn't think there was a use until they saw the Israeli's using the Dome. That should take care of that inbound mortar thing.
its a single shot...
yes this is satan the single fire and retire system
The moment of exhaustion has reached me, I just can't say anymore without throwing hypocrisy to the wind.
Amazing what you can accomplish by stacking a few 55 gallon drums and painting them in camoflage. Easy to set up dummy units by the thousands to confuse enemy. Bullish
Who compiled this graphic? 30 kms is not 10 000 feet as noted in the graphic, but 98 425 feet. There are 3.28 feet in a meter, and 1000 meters in a km. So 30 km = 30 000 meters. Converted to feet = x 3.28 = approx 98 400 feet. An GTA missile system that stops short at 10 000 feet would be like throwing stones at the moon.
Well, that escalated quickly.
They know what's "coming".
p.s. to the 14:10 posting: Spock hopes that somebody didn't fuck up the math and give it a 3 km ceiling, because... 10,000 feet = 3 km. 30km - 100,000 feet.
Worried about ICBM's from Iran and N.Korea.
Same as NATO with their missile shield.
This is definitely possible.
The Ukraine and USA are not going to launch airstrikes on Russia anytime soon...but Iran might.
This could be a cover for a ground invasion of Ukraine however. Given Russia's financial collapse since Crimea that doesn't seem like a "winner" as Ukraine is not doing well financially either.
300,000 feet gets you to outer space btw.
An important note to the stated specs: it ranges from 10ft to max height. Terrain following cruise missiles need not apply either.
But they got it right when converting 75 miles to 120 km.
Go figure.
Time to get the tomato's inside...........

Today, on the other hand, the CIA is directing an incendiary propaganda campaign against Russia and its president, Vladimir Putin, a campaign that seems intent on provoking a direct military confrontation with the country with the second largest nuclear arsenal in the world. There is no question that the CIA is mobilizing all the resources and assets it commands—within governments, the media, and among academics—in a carefully orchestrated campaign aimed at polluting public opinion with anti-Russian hysteria.

Pentagon sends counterinsurgency military experts to Ukraine
Published time: September 30, 2014 18:03 http://rt.com/usa/191976-pentagon-counterinsurgency-expert-ukraine/They must be getting tired of Aurora over flights.
Malaysian Airlines pilots please plan accordingly.
Malaysian Airlines Pilots, please do not accept flight plans and flight instructions from the Kiev CIA Air Traffic Control system!
Cockpit area next to pilots seat riddled with 30MM cannon shell holes, visible on dozens of close up photos taken the day of the crash. S-400 and BUK missiles do not mount 30MM cannon, but Ukrainian SU-25 and MIG-29 do indeed mount this gun. And ground eyewitnesses saw 2 fighter aircraft escorting the Malaysian Air Liner. Plus Russian Air Radars tracked the contacts eyewitnesses reported. On ground witnesses also reported, right after the crash, that they heard loud machine gun like fire coming from the sky at the time the plane began to break up.
But ignore that, I have it on the best authority that a BUK fired by the Rebel forces in east Ukraine shot this plane down, and they did it without any fire control radar or any ground based radars. It was not anyone of the five Ukrainian BUK systems and their mobile radars that were in range that did it. Trust CNN they have the latest breaking news!
Jack Burton, if the USSA/EU had conclusive proof that Russia and/or the so-called Russian Rebels shot down MH17, they would have been screaming it 24/7 from every controlled media mouthpiece. Instead the false flag against Russia failed, likely because the jet did not crash in Russia as planned. Notice how the black box recordings and the Kiev Control tower recordings have never been released. Notice also how the state department indirectly offered as proof satellite images that were much worse than those obtainable by google earth.
Finally, if you want a good laugh, check out how the CNN reporter Chris Cuomo initially attacks Putin for not allowing immediate access to the crash site. Chris was reading from a prepared script, and did not receive the latest talking points.
Peter Lavelles reply was priceless....

Your are correct. Most Americans will believe initially in the false narrative created by the USSA. Over time, however, the narrative erodes unless all contrary opinions are precluded. This is why, then RT television is under constant attack by western puppet media, and the free flow of information via the internet is a threat to national security.
Wow, do pilots still fly planes...
30km = 10,000 feet?
common whore dimensional analysis. Correct answer is 30km = 98,425ft
I noticed the same mistake 30km = 100,000 feet. But even that is not consistent. Elsewhere we see 40-50km or up to 164,000 feet. This is well above jet engine flight levels and can only imply an anti-balistic missle capability.
Probably left out a zero
1 Kilometer = 3280.8399 Feet so 30 * 3280.8399 would make it about 98,425.2
Close enough that some hot shot pilots free-riding over Syria right now would be well advised to be wearing diapers.

2. you think my specificity was aimed at you instead of just being a little informative for the group. Where it's within reach, I'm not changing this.
And ffs, I even left a link. It would've been more work to be less specific, oh normal one.
Prolly left out a zero and twenty years interest.
One of NASA's (JPL's) Mars Rovers crash landed into Mars (a few years back), because some hick Engineer messed up with Unit conversion (Metric vs Imperial).
When either the American Automotive or Aerospace switches over to Metric, the rest will follow. And we can finally bury the British (Imperial) system of units that the Brits themselves have long dropped in favor of Metric. How ironic is it, that so long after 1776 the US is still keeping up its Colonial traditions.
The US doesn't use the imperial system.It uses its own.

Imagine the guy in charge of keeping gold prices down in this world. I suspect he wakes up every morning wondering how much worse it can get for him. Every single thing that can go wrong, which every major gold bull predicted would go wrong, is actually happening. Haha. Keep selling that dream, bro.
A Sisyphean task. No doubt.
Well at least we will know without a doubt who is at fault the second time.
Notice while America spends trillions on wars in third world hell holes and Arab Middle East nations, Russia is spending it's money on weapons of pure defense. S-400 and S-500, along with their own defensive Pantsir-S air defense missile and gun complex, are weapons that threaten nobody anywhere. What they do do is offer Russia a viable defense of it's air space against a NATO that has vowed to advance on Russia's borders and has vowed to put that nation at threat from the Baltic to the Black Sea. Obama has already laid out that Russia must be crushed in order for the American century to continue to advance. All this comes from the Washington DC "Neoconservative War Party" who hold an iron grip on US foreign policy and military policy. It is not ME who says NATO threatnes Russia, all you need do is follow NATO press releases and Obama speeches to see that Russia is considered a direct enemy of NATO expansion and American wars across the Middle East and Western Asia.
Not only air defense, but Russia is fsat building ultra modern submarines designed purely for defense of it coastal and open sea economic zones. And lastly, brand new Fleet Ballistic Missile Submarines are being built to ensure a nuclear force that can survive a NATO first strike.
I really don't lose sleep when Russia spends money to defend it's self. It is not building air forces and armies designed to cross borders and attack countries abroad. Only it's border seems to interest Russia. And that includes Ukraine and Crimea.
Right. They only fire when fired upon. Or something.
Thats right, the russians respond military only to direct threats, and in a limited fashion. How many countries has Russia supposedly invaded in the last 23 years? 2 at most, assuming you are a neo con liar.
How many has the USSA? At least 22.

Eve wonder why you are working for minimum wage, with deteriorating roads, bridges and healthcare, while trillions are spent by the MIC?
You're not even a good troll, is the thing...
I don't know what the Russian reasoning for how they are setting up their military forces is, but I can say that the US would be logistically crushed if it got into a land war in Russia. We'd crush them in a naval battle in the middle of the Atlantic, but that would not bring Russia to its knees. They don't have the logistics to invade the US either. That means that if we want to bring Russia to its knees militarialy, we really have one option. The Russkies can be a bit paranoid when it comes to foreign invaders for historical reasons. What option does that mean they'll take?
I'd like to strangle the CIA fucks who decided this was a good idea.
Does anyone have a link on those ballistic missile subs designed to sit in Russia's territorial waters nice and safe from USA subs? They are supposed to house those new missiles that can hit the USA from longer distances. Wouldnt want to be a usa attack sub in Russian territorial waters, license to get blown up.
SLBMs on both sides have roughly the range of ICBMs, give or take. The Trident IIs might as well be an ICBM if they are only carrying a partial payload. Both Russian and US SLBMs can carry over 10 warheads, though when doing so, the US SLBMs have a reduced range, and I'm not sure about the Russian ones with a full payload. One nuclear sub on either side could bring any country on the planet to its knees in 30 minutes.
I'm sure there's always one or two Russian subs in the icy waters of northern Canada, north or west of Baffin...
I hope they've got a couple parked in the eastern med, perhaps with a payload on which Palestinian children have written heart warming messages to the self-chosen...
superb
Russia doesn't spend money on arms to defend itself. That was proven when the USSR fell and they were defenseless for years. No-one attacked.
Where have you been in the 23 years? Russia has been under relentless attack since the dissolution of the Soviet Union. If it weren't for Putin, the NWO would be in total control, and you would be microchipped with your carbon ration quota.
Yes, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, no one attacked defenseless Russia. Because at this time, USA the plundered Russia as they wanted.
This is why Putin became a "problem." He stopped the plundering of Russia being done by dual citizen oligarchs.
Air defense is also essentisl in any ground invasion scenario. While Russia has superiority in armored vehicles, artillery and tanks, whomever controls the air, controls the battlefield. With superior air defense systems, it quickly neutralizes any advantage NATO may have in the air. Frankly, I am surprised Russia has not developed air defense systems against drones including use of satallites, laser technology and radio jamming devices rendering drones useless. Imagine it would also offer a great opportunity for sales in ME and China
What makes you think they or the Chinese or Iranians havent. There is a nice stealth drone all taken apart sitting in Iran right now.
"regiments will receive the S-400 systems by 2020."
2020 ??? That is NOT what you call "JIT". It's what I call WTL (Way Too Late).
Thats twenty past eight this evening.
Churchills second law states: govt.'s never announce anything until its already done.
yes this is really true
Weapon deployment dates are for sheeple consumption.
If a hot war broke out, make no mistake that there would be surprises on both sides from weapons supposedly still in the pipeline, as well as from weapons nobody believed existed or could exist.
I thought Russia was close to deploying S-500s. The older S-300s which they probably have plenty of are still very effective.

Strong dollar, rising volatility mark Q3 markets. Same again in Q4?
| Reuters
Some key points:
The biggest gainer from 22 assets and market instruments tracked by Reuters was China-listed A-shares, which rose 16.1 percent, and the biggest loser was Brent crude oil futures, which fell almost 14 percent. More than half of the 22 fell.
"The dollar move is not going to hurt the U.S. economy in any appreciable way, certainly not at this point," Deutsche Bank chief U.S. economist, Joe LaVorgna, said, noting that the United States is producing much more of its own energy and so slashing its import bill and trade deficit.
Makes sense to me. How can the value of the dollar going up be a bad thing when the US greatest export these days is... freshly printed dollars.
Of course, the dollar will go up with all the chaos in the world. This is that last desparate attempt to keep the reserve currency. When it don't work anymore, watch out below.
I am cleverly buying up Zimbabwe currency as a hedge against the coming US hyperflation...
How dare they defending their borders!
Fuck NATO.
That you, Nuland? ;-)
Putin?
Naw, Putin likes NATO. It gives him a powerful external enemy, useful for crushing 5th and 6th columnists.
Ironically, the US turned off part of its air defense system along its southern border a couple years back, and has left the door wie open even while claiming ISIS is a million times worse than Al Qaeda...
Funny how cost effective defensive systems deployed within Russia have the ominous tone of an evil empire - while the Americans' absurd supercarrier and fighter-bomber projects are about defending freedom, although they are generally deployed nowhere near the US 'homeland' and tend to kill brown civilians more than anything.
You know what would have been extremely effective against ISIS as they drove in their US supplied trucks into Iraq?
The fucking A10 - which was so effective and cost-reasonable, they just had to mothball it, despite its utility [with or without some tweaks]. The A10 woul be barely affected by things that would make the F35 unflyable.
Things like fucking rain.
Duffy,
I hear ya. Sitting in that titainium tub, selecting a low fire rate, just one of those can shred a long column of pick up trucks.
The F35 is a superior aircraft!
A single F35 is worth all the A10s!
That better be the case because its likely the US can only afford a single F35...
The guy who co-developed the the A-10 and F-16, Pierre Sprey, has said the F-35 is garbage and the F-22 is not much better.
He had worked on the F-15 but it was becoming too big, expensive and heavy so there "underground" team developed the F-16 to be fast nimble and a great fighter. The had to fight the Air Force tooth and nail to accept the cheap A-10 and they still hate it. They do not want to do ground support.
They should have sold it to the Army...

You know that all that shi was about stuff that happened 1900 years ago, right??
There were Russian threats denying air passage to western commercial air traffic as part of sanctions escalation. Have to take those threats seriously. Of coarse US can cripple Russia's economy by deying Russian airlines passage over America---that would teach them a lesson !
Maybe the Russians can make them bleed slowly by forcing an airliner to land in Russia everyonce in a while for security reasons ie terrorism lol. They can then make some money selling them the extra fuel they will need because of landing and takeoff.
Just yesterday, Bibi Netanyahu made his speech at the UN General Assembly. He focused on the "existential" threat posed ny Iran.
It seems that an agreement on the level of nuclear research and plutonium production that would be permitted to Iran is just days away. Israel may believe that it has just that much time to attack Iran by air and sea (Dolphin-class submarines have cruise missiles.), before the Iranian nuclear program would become officially "approved".
The air activity over Syria, Iraq, and Iran which is related to the ISIS campaign, would offer excellent cover for the 1st wave of Israeli air stikes. Israel has also launched from Azerbaijan in the southern Caucusus in the past.
Apart from air operations in the South Caucusus and over the Caspian Sea, Russia cannot disrupt air operations against Iran with this weapon system. But its operational readiness could cause the Israelis to reconsider their plans for such.
The Azeris are Shiite, I am surprised they would allow Israel such opportunities when they have such close religious ties to Iran???????
Plus the current Ayatollah is Azeri. When the CIA was trying to stir up all that trouble in Iran a few years back (soft power color-wise) word was, the Azeris in Iran told them, "We run Iran, why would we separate or join Azerbaijan????"
And I really don't think the folks who run Azerbaijan would ever really cross Russia or Iran. Talk about being between a rock and hard place ;)
Iran has not attacked any of its neighbors in 200 years.
but has had plenty of dirty done to them....
I think they have to wait until that 4th "blood" moon next Wednesday or Hagee's book sales and the hopes and dreams of tens of million of Judaized "Christian" Zionists will be dashed.
Also - do you understand that Iran has a right to develop nuclear technology under the IAEA, and that Israel has built hundreds of warheads all while refusing inspections?

Yeah, when the U.S. does decide to strike Russia militarily, it's going to be in Russia's neighborhood and on its terms, largely.
U.S. supply lines will be totally vulnerable, as will the carriers. And the attempt to win air superiority over Russia will fail, while costing many scores of aircraft in the attempt.
U.S. subs are going to get a rude surprise, too. Advanced Russian subs are much fewer, but much harder to detect and are armed with torpedos the U.S. subs can't escape.
China's going to be in it too - they sure as hell won't pass up the chance to cut U.S. military down to size when they foolishly take on Russia in its own neighborhood.
The Russians just laugh about stealth because they have long wave radars and other types. Pierre Sprey who co developed the F-16 and A-10 has called stealth a scam. He said RAF WW2 radars could see stealth.
The F-35 and F-22 will end up as toast. Years ago the Rand Corp did a simulation over Taiwan versus Chinese Su-27s and 31s versus F-18, F-35 and F-22s and the USA got mauled.

There's nothing quite like the Stealth of the F35, can anything else make $150,000,000 vanish without a trace.
Very interesting article at whitehousepress. It's enraging to think of how much money has been spent on these JSF project, only to produce such a dud as the F35. Perhaps Lockheed Martin thought the F35 would never actually see combat and so would have an eternal cash cow.
This is great news. I felt safest and most prosperous during the time the cold war kept banksters in line.
