Алжир покупает новейшие российские ЗРК С-350 "Витязь"

Translated by google

Algeria will be the first buyer of Russian S-350 Vityaz air defense systems.

Arab informational resources drew attention to the images of the Russian S-350 Vityaz air defense systems, which will appear on the arsenal of the Russian army this month, regularly appearing at meetings of representatives of the Ministry of Defense of Algeria. Against this background, it was stated that Algeria, in addition to the purchase of Su-32 fighters (export version of Su-34 - approx. Ed.), Su-35 and Su-57, also signed a contract with Russia for the supply of S-350 Vityaz air defense systems .

No details have yet been provided on this score, however, Algeria has repeatedly shown great interest in the Russian air defense systems, in particular, today the Russian armored vehicles are Pantsir, and as part of the S-350 Vityaz demonstration , Algeria's defense ministry showed genuine interest in these air defense / missile defense systems.

To date, there are no official comments on this subject from either the Russian or Algerian military representatives, however, experts position the S-350 Vityaz air defense system as a means of air defense and missile defense, which has superiority over the S-300PM2 air defense system, and, in fact, having a level of effectiveness of the defeat is very close to the level of the S-400 "Triumph".
