The bright flash effect and glow is enhanced by the dark. At the start of the S-300 or S-400 rocket, the rocket is ejected from the TPK by pyro cartridges to a height of about 20 m, then the sustainer engine is turned on, the rocket is thrown vertically upward, then it must fall into the so-called "capture matrix", then, if everything happened normally, the rocket lie on the course with the help of gas rudders according to the declination and conversion angles entered in its AP and goes to the calculated meeting point with the target. If, for some reason, the missile did not hit the "capture matrix", then it continues to move upward along a ballistic trajectory (by the way, we observed this on one of the launches of the S-300 firing advertised by Ukrainians) and after 3-4 seconds its self-liquidator is triggered, flight the rocket is terminated. In this video, we see about the same thing, but I want to note that it is very rare that SAMs are fired for training calculations on targets at night, then if this is a practice shooting at the range, then, as a rule, shooting is done with rockets that are approaching the end of their operational life so anything can be. Even in this case, an analysis of the number of failures is carried out, and a decision can be made to extend or refuse to extend a given batch of missiles. By all indirect indications, in this case, it was not the training and combat shooting of the S-300 or S-400 (including the amount of debris and the afterburning of fuel in the air), but a test of some product. But how successful it was or not, even by such a visual plot, it is impossible to judge (maybe they checked the same mode of self-destruction of the product). You don't need to sprinkle ashes on your head, or gloat, you need to be proud of the fact that we are producing and testing the weapons that are feared all over the world, and which guarantees that in Russia we will not have such a story as in Syria. Well, if this is not a successful launch of a product, it is like in that proverb: "A negative result is also a result" you cannot do without it when testing modern technology.

Do you even know that in Kapustin Yar they constantly conduct training and other missile launches and not only air defense, but also ballistic missiles, and this has been happening, alas, for more than a decade, and Belarus, alas, can raise the minimum wage and that money is Russian.

Where does such awareness of what Shoigu does and how babakha each air defense system comes from?

Valer, and you do well with the mind. Probably, you are not doing anything, at all times it has been so.

Well. judging by the comments - in the cage commenting only on conspiracy therapists and experts on corruption and the defense industry. You still skvortsovu with Medina harness and do not forget the pension reform!

And what hurray-patriots really cuts his eyes? Imagine that in our country all failures are carefully masked, and shovel inventions are given out for Russian industry. Because of these freaks like you. in the news on the federal channels, they only praise everything, for example, that the minimum wage has risen by as much as 117 rubles - at the same time Belarus from 1 in January to 780 rubles ...

Vasily Petrovich, I fully support you. And the same "freaks" are spewing comments here.

It is with such missiles that we defend the Motherland, we defend the Crimea and Syria. With such missiles and enemies do not need ...

Congratulations, you have all your trousers ** us ... A rocket exploded, a fire occurred, outsiders at the test site ... It remains only to win the lottery ...

Horseradish with two C-350 there. Even C-300 doesn’t bang like that - most likely C-400 or something new and unfair ...

I remember the Crimea the same missiles are guarded. Of course, I do not hint at anything, but no matter how I had to meet Ukrainian planes with such salutes ...

The one who shot it on video - you need to plant on 5 years. Because of such provocations freaks and created ...

Alia, have you seen the C-350 rocket? Judging by the explosion, there is no less than Iskander thumped ... Well, Shoigu is too busy cutting the budget to pay attention to such trifles ...

The Defense Ministry will say that the new fireworks were tested ...

The usual krivorukost - everything is always done krivoruko. We think correctly - and we do it in one place - at all times it has been like this ...
