The first footage of the Almaz-Antey S-500 Prometey (‘Prometheus') air and missile defence system (GRAU designation 55R6M), shown conducting a test launch, has been released by the Russian Ministry of Defence (MoD) via a video published on its YouTube channel on 20 July.

俄罗斯国防部 (MoD) 通过YouTube频道发布的视频公布了阿尔马兹·安泰 S-500 Prometey（“普罗米修斯”）防空和导弹防御系统（GRAU代号55R6M）的第一段镜头，显示 7 月 20 日进行试射。

 

The missile shown being launched was reported to have successfully intercepted a “high-speed ballistic target” during test firings at the Kapustin Yar range, about 100 km east of Volgograd, according to the video. Once tests are complete, the system is to enter service with air defence formations in the Moscow region, the video added.

视频显示，据报道，发射的导弹在伏尔加格勒以东约 100 公里的 卡普斯京亚尔(Kapustin Yar)靶场进行试射时成功拦截了一个“高速弹道目标”。视频补充说，一旦测试完成，该系统将进入莫斯科地区的防空部队中服役。

 

The first tests of the S-500 using the 40N6 missile were conducted in February 2018 and further tests were reported in May that year, in which the system was claimed to have intercepted a target at a range of 481 km, according to an article published by the US news outlet CNBC.

美国新闻媒体CNBC发表文章称，S-500使用40N6导弹的首次试验于2018年2月进行，同年5月又进行了进一步测试，据称该系统在481公里的射程内拦截了一个目标。

 

However, this is the first time that footage of the system, developed under the ‘Triumfator-M' project name, has been released by the Russian MoD.

不过，这是俄罗斯国防部首次公布以“Triumfator-M”项目命名开发该系统的片断。

 

In the footage, a BAZ-69096-hosted transporter-erector-launcher (TEL), reportedly having the designation 77P6, appears to launch a newer 77N6-N or possibly 77N6-N1 missile developed by Novator. The design of the launched missile looks to be descended from the two-stage conical design of the 9M82 (NATO reporting name ‘Giant') missile family used with the S-300V series air defence system.

在这段片段中，据报道编号为77P6的BAZ-69096承载的运输-竖立-发射车辆(TEL)似乎发射了一种由诺瓦托(Novator)设计局开发的新型77N6-N或可能是77N6-N1导弹。发射导弹的设计看起来源自与S-300V系列防空系统一起使用的9M82（北约报告名称为“Giant”）导弹系列的两级锥形设计。
