This is coolbert:

Once more to the topic of the surface-to-air missile that can be employed as a ground-ground ballistic missile.

Bada bing, bada boom!

"Russia is completing the development of an attack version of the S-400 Triumph air defense system"

From https://avia-pro.net |  2023-10-03.

"The Military-Industrial Commission of the Russian Federation announced recently conducted full-scale tests of a promising multi-purpose tactical quasi-ballistic missile at the Kapustin Yar training ground. According to statements by First Deputy Chairman of the Commission Dmitry Medvedev, the new weapon is designed to significantly expand the combat capabilities of the S-400 long-range anti-aircraft missile systems."

"The S-400 Triumph air defense system is one of the most powerful air defense systems in the world, and the new missile can become an additional 'trump card' in its arsenal. It is worth noting that anti-aircraft missiles designed to destroy air targets have long had the ability to hit ground targets."

Range of the S-400 in the ballistic mode will be about 550 km. [about 330 miles]. Warhead 180 kg or about four-hundred pounds of bang-stuff.

See previous blog entries Russian anti-aircraft missile be employed in the ballistic mode:
