Over the next 20 years, the USD 2.5 billion S-500 Prometheus and the specialised S-550 will gradually replace the S-400. These next-generation systems expand the intercept range to 600 km to destroy hypersonic missiles and LEO satellites.

What could replace the S-400 in the next 20 years?

The S-400 cannot fire while moving. To safely launch its heavy Mach 14 interceptors, the system must halt, deploy hydraulic outriggers, and elevate its tubes vertically. However, a crew can transition from driving to firing in just five minutes.Untitled Summary

Can an S-400 fire while moving?

Because the S-400 uses a modular architecture, the breakdown of a single vehicle does not disable the system. The 55K6E command post instantly reroutes firing commands to operational launchers, while overlapping radars prevent blind spots.Untitled Summary
