Russia has not yet delivered advanced S-300 missiles to Syria, despite rather vague Syrian indications to the contrary, reported two Russian media outlets on Friday.

The Russian business daily Vedomosti said that it was unclear whether or not the air defense systems would be delivered this year, while the daily Kommersant reported that the S-300 missiles would only be delivered in the second quarter of 2014.

Remember all the nukes that were hidden in underground storage facilities after the SALT talks? Here we go gain...(0 would probably have really destroyed them, and left us defenseless and open to attack)
