Russia is actually much closer to developing an effective
anti-ballistic missile defense system than the United States. Russia's
latest S-400 surface-to-air missile system is currently in its final
stage of testing and is due to enter service in 2001-2002.

Umm, please learn to read BEFORE you cut and paste. Its 2004 and it still
isn't in service.
