Russia will conduct missile defense test firing in Artik using a hypersonic target

Russia will conduct firing tests in the Arctic with a "modern missile defense system" (ABM) using a hypersonic target. This is reported by RIA Novosti with a link to your source.

According to the interlocutor of the agency, the shooting will take place before the end of the year at one of the military ranges in the Arctic. He said that the missile defense system will have to detect, escort and hit a hypersonic target. It is noted that as part of the tests, the target should be hit at a range of hundreds of kilometers.

At the moment, the anti-missile defense functions in the Russian army can be performed by the S-400 Triumph, and the S-500 Prometheus air defense /missile defense tests are also being completed. In addition, the development of a mobile special system PRO-550 is underway, but the availability of its ready-to-test samples has not been reported.

Earlier it became known that the Russian S-500 Prometheus and Pantsir-SM complexes will be combined into a single circuit, where the latter will cover the former. The Izvestia edition, citing sources in the Ministry of Defense, notes that the Pantsir-SM, also called "Super-Shells", will protect the S-500 Prometheus from drone strikes and enemy cruise missiles. The newspaper writes that the Russian military department solves technical issues related to the integration of these complexes into a single circuit.
