The strategic command of Russia's space defense forces took delivery of
its second unit of S-400 Triumf missile systems on Wednesday, which will
be based in the Moscow Region, Defense Ministry spokesman Col. Vladimir
Drik said.
Until now, the Russian forces have had only one unit of S-400s, based at Electrostal, near Moscow.
"The handover ceremony for the second S-400 will take place at the state firing range in Kapustin Yar from February 16-19," Drik said.
The unit will consist of two regiments, each consisting of eight launch points, each with four missiles.
