Russia offers Iran advanced S-400 air defense weapons

Moscow invites Tehran to bid for S-400 aid defense systems, Russia media reported on Sunday, June 30. Neither the US nor Israel figures in those reports, or last week’s deployment of US F-22 stealth jets to Qatar, amid a tense US-Iran standoff. The Russian Federal Service of Military-Technical Cooperation military cooperation service was quoted as announcing: “We are open for discussions on delivering S-400 Triumph air defense systems, including to Iran… We have not received an official request from our partners on this matter yet.”

The advanced S-400 can intercept cruise missiles as well as warplanes. It is now on offer to Iran although Moscow refused to supply them to the Islamic Republic last month. DEBKAfile notes: This turnabout has come shortly after Presidents Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin met in Osaka on the sidelines of the G20 summit and indicates that they made no progress towards bridging their differences on the Iranian and Syria issues. The offer also signified the failure of the American, Russian and Israeli national security advisers, John Bolton, Nikolai Patrushev and Meir Ben-Shabbat, to reach a consensus on these issues when they met in Jerusalem five days ago.

On that occasion Patrushev stated that “Moscow has an interest in safeguarding Israel’s security.”

Our military sources note that Tehran may find an opportunity to accept Moscow’s proposition in the course of the 5th International Military-Technical Forum taking place at the National Park in the Russian capital, with the participation of 120 nations and armies. If this transaction does indeed go through, Iran will be the second Middle East nation to purchase the Russian S-400 weapons system, after Turkey, which expects delivery before the end of this year. In Osaka, our military sources add, President Trump told Turkish President Reccep Erdogan that Washington has withdrawn the threat of sanctions on his government for purchasing S-400s from Russia, although it is the first NATO member to buy arms from Moscow.

        I agree. By Russia announcing this it is Russia telling Israel and the US to hurry up and take out their missiles and nuke reactors. Why else would they announce it and not keep it secret?

    Good Business decision to milk Iran and Turkey for expensive weapons that may or may not work as claimed. Shooting down an American or Israeli manned plane could result in the eradication of all the S400’s sold to these countries, that could better use the money to feed their people.

      …and what’s more – attempts to re-supply once these weapons are destroyed will be stopped. Blown up on the tarmac…which is what Israel has been doing.

      Even IF the S-400 could provide air security. There are other ways to take them out and re-supply will be interdicted.

      Its best for Iran to negotiate, it cannot fight and win..this time.

        I think one way to take out Russia’s S-400 would be fairly simple if say Israel fired 24 missiles at the same time at Syria’s 4
        S-400’s then have Israel fire another round of missiles at all of them again would destroy them,,it wouldn’t give Syria time to reload the S-400’s….There’s still too little we know about the S-400’s,,how fast can they be reloaded..

      russia delivered the s-300 to syria in under a week last october, because it was a surplus system from upgrading a russian antiaircraft unit. more importantly, instead of waiting to train syrian crews, the russians sent their own troops to operate it. things can move quickly when there’s a lot of money on the line.

    Again, hard to say if this is a genuine offer or what. And, if Turkey supports the Tripoli Libyans, and Russians support the Benghazi ones, gets even crazier, since Turkey is purchasing the S-400s, even though both nations have staked out different positions on many foreign issues. Trying to make my head stop spinning. Coffee would help. Espresso is better.

      The arms market is a fool’s market. If someone is selling you arms, . . . they are sub-standard to what the country has that is doing the selling. Russia is selling 400’s only because they: 1) can use the cash, 2) have a fool for a buyer, and 3) have bigger and better toys back home than they are selling. AND when Iran attempts to use them, . . . and gets busted to the core, . . . Russia can just say they didn’t follow proper Russian procedures . . .

    Good enough to have successfully game-changed the Israelis over an attack on Iran is good enough indeed
    The purpose built ‘Stealth Killer’, the advanced s400 was designed as high cull hunter of the F22, B2 and F35. Deployment of s300/likely intermixed s400 capabilities closed the ‘Window for Iran’ so often flogged in 2011 by Ehud Barak as Obama stuffed the in-motion triggering attack on Iran ordered by Netanyahu at that time and subsequently published and exposed

      Like that sleight of hand “the S400 was designed as a hunter of F22, B2 and F35.” News flash. The fighter jets you call fodder for an untested weapon system will “see” the radar signature of the S400 and destroy them before they even know what hit them. The 5th gen US fighter jets are backed by a spiders web phased array of radar installations surrounding Iran, as well as satellites which will relay to them the exact locations of the missiles. They don’t have a chance!

      After installing S300s and 400s in Syria in 2016, Russia wouldn’t dare even turn on their radars, lest the Israelis lock on and destroy them, a huge humiliation Putin couldn’t afford to undergo.

        I agree, Russia is ‘saving’ the S-400 and 500 for itself. If it lets the scum use it, giving up its secrets, counter measures will be in place by the end of the day. Meaning that Russia’s own security will be weakened.
