According to information released by the Russian Press Agency, TASS on August 25, 2020, Russia’s latest S-500 air defense missile system has entered acceptance trials, said Deputy Prime Minister Yuri Borisov at the Army-2020 military technical forum that takes place in the Moscow Region.

“The fact is that acceptance trials have begun and today the S-500 simplified configuration is already available and work is underway to purchase parts for its serial production,” he said.

Russian Deputy Defense Minister Alexey Krivoruchko said in February that military specialists had held the trials of the world’s unrivaled surface-to-air missiles for the latest S-500 air defense system last year.

He said in December 2019 that the preliminary tests of the S-500 antiaircraft missile system would begin in 2020 and the commencement of its serial deliveries to the troops was scheduled in 2025.
