Air Defence Update

S-300 SAM system – CONFIRMED!
There have been consistent reports of Iranian interest in the advanced Russian S-300 SAM system and even rumors of deployment but these have been unsubstantiated for years. As of Jan 2009 it can be confirmed via commercial satellite imagery that Iran does possess S-300 SAMs. The likely model is S-300 PMU-2 although the slightly older PMU-1 is a possibility. The latest S-400 cannot be ruled out but this seems less likely. The likely source of this system remains Russia although China also manufactures S-300 PMU-1 systems.

Any bets on how Iran just announced its missile defense system is going into full production?

America has GOT to quit buying China’s stuff. Just do without. Create domestic demand for the same product.

The S-300/400 system is roughly equivalent to the U.S. Patriot system............ Now that is an understatement if I ever heard one.

Possible counter: hundreds of drones with enhanced radar reflection, to suck the Chinese into firing on a non-existing attack and waste their SAMs.
