S-400 Guided Missile. The Secrets Behind Production | RT Documentary

Anti-aircraft guided missiles for Russia’s renowned S-400 Triumph air defence system are assembled at the Avangard factory in Moscow. RT’s Yulia Shapovalova toured the plant that was a top-secret facility in Soviet times.

Avangard is one of the world’s oldest manufacturers of anti-aircraft missiles, which turns 80 in January 2022. It was built during the Second World War, and is the only company producing anti-aircraft guided missiles for the S-300 Favorite and S-400 Triumph air defence systems.

The S-400 is supplied to the Russian Army and exported as part of military-technical cooperation with China, India and Turkey. The S-400 system’s primary uniqueness lies in its guided missiles. Russia’s S-400 Triumph air defence system relies on the products made there.

The S-400 Triumph is a superior air defence system. It has an operational range of 400 km, and it can detect targets at a distance of up to 600 km. It can track objects fly with a maximum speed of 4.8 km per second, meaning they can intercept hypersonic weapons.

Take a tour of the once top-secret facility and learn how the classified missiles for the legendary S-400 are made.
