History
Developed to succeed the S-300P, S-400 entered service in 2007 with four different-range missiles (9M96E, 9M96E2, 48N6DM, 40N6) covering 40 to 400 km.
Export to Turkey (NATO member) led to its exclusion from F-35; operational effectiveness in Syria and Ukraine has been more limited than advertised.
