Alright, that’s some of the information that I was looking for.
Finally, what kind of information do you have on Tor-M1 integration into S-300/400 systems? Are they one per TEL, one per battery, or what? When Tor-M1s are deployed with them, do they also bring a Ranzhir-M along, or would that be unnecessary?
Thanks in advance, very much.

Apart from Tor-M1, there will (most certainly) be other anti-air missile complexes that will be integrated with with the S-300/400 systems.
One possible future candidate may be a development of the RVV (amraamsky) air-air missile. It is called RVV-AE-ZRK. Here is a pic of it.
Another candidate could be the VITYAZ system. Details about it at http://www.dtig.org/docs/MSAM-MRADS-Vityaz.pdf
Al’fa missile (3M51) was a prototype of concept for the 3M54E missile now used on the Klub system.
Its R&D have been stopped, and an air launched version of 3M54E should be called 3M54A, as much as the cruise missile version is called 3M14AE (export).
NO, NO, NO
The Alpha missile I posted above have nothing to do with the KLUB missile family (developed by the NOVATOR bureau). Apart from name, they have nothing in common.
The air-launched version of the KLUB cruise missile is called KALIBER. Here is a picture. Note that it is completely different from the ALPHA missile I am talking about.
