I've heard numerous articles on the supposed ability of the S-400. I haven't had much luck online, so I'll bring my question here. This site has some very reasonable discussions, so I'm hoping that you guys can help me out.
What is the tactical capability of the S-400's acquisition radar? What about its engagement radar? What RCS can it detect at what range? Sources claim that the earlier S-300PMU-1 can detect a 0.02 square meter target traveling at 1400 feet at a range of 24 nautical miles. How much better is the S-400's radar systems?
What additional systems would augment an S-400 battery? Acting independently and undetected, how effective is the system against a low RCS aircraft, like the F-22?
