The United States has allegedly acquired the Russian-made S-300 air defense systems, media reports have claimed based on satellite imagery shared on Twitter.
The photo was originally released by a military enthusiast on May 1 whose Twitter account was subsequently deleted. It shows elements of Russian S-300PT surface-to-air missile system at a military range in the United States.
S-300PТ system is designed for the defensive purpose of administrative, industrial and military buildings and objects against all kind air attacks.
It was first deployed by the Soviet Union in 1979. The project-managing developer of the S-300 is Russian Almaz corporation. The S-300 air defense systems have been delivered to a number of countries including China, Algeria, Venezuela, Iran, Vietnam, Ukraine, Bulgaria, Syria and Slovakia.
