A fire broke out at Moscow's Avangard Machine Building Plant, the sole supplier of missiles
for the S-400 system, on April 16, Russian Telegram channel Astra claimed.
The fire started in plant’s shop No. 12 and spread to 50 square meters, the channel claimed.
"The factory produces missiles for air defense systems,” Astra
informers said.
“This is the main missiles supplier for S-300 and
S-400 complexes."
The plant claimed the fire was part of "firefighting training," Russian propaganda media claimed.
"In order to bring training conditions as close as possible to the
combat ones, pyrotechnic smoke devices were used in the facility," the
propagandists alleged.
