On the 86th anniversary of Vietnam’s Press Day, the Vietnamese air forces invited journalists to visit its S-300PMU1 – one of the world’s most modern missile systems – that is ready to defend Vietnamese territory at any time.
The S-300PMU1 made in Russia was designed specifically for Vietnam and can be used to prevent air or sea attacks by foreign enemy/enemies.
This state-of-the-art system is being managed by the S. air defense team and is ready for use.
Senior lieutenant colonel Le Van Thanh, head of the team, said that “S-300PMU1 is highly appreciated for defense purposes. Although the system weighs dozens of tons, it takes just minutes to fire after being alerted”.
Meanwhile, it takes just 5 seconds to fire after the station caught enemy targets.
With such super-fast capability and a radar system that is highly immune to wave interference, coupled with high firepower, ability to fight in all conditions, the S-300PMU1 is also able to be deployed individually or collectively in sync with other defense systems.
S-300PMU1 is able to monitor hundreds of targets and attacks six targets simultaneously. It is also able to fend off attacks from all directions and speeds.
