      Not extended ... Voivode extended for the THIRD TIME until the 20th year ... then there is no point in prolonging and it is dangerous. Hyptil, you know, is not completely harmless and not caustic. I think that if old missiles are launched, then the time for adopting the Frontier and Sarmatian weapons is approaching.

    They were armed with the 19th missile division, Khmelnitsky. Currently, the launchers are destroyed, where they were, the land has been reclaimed with American money. At the 10 site, where there were barracks for personnel, a couple of pieces were converted into housing, a couple of pieces were occupied by the Ukrainian missile brigade of military unit A-4239, the rest and the dining room were gaping with empty eye sockets. The missile brigade is armed with the Tochka-U missile; in 2014-2015, it fired more than a dozen missiles in the settlements of Donbass. According to some reports, her combat crews are still there.

    Stiletto is a very good rocket, but the voivode has twice the throw weight and is almost twice as accurate. These missiles were created at about the same time - the mid-70s. Why did the Strategic Missile Forces need two heavy liquid-propellant missiles at once? In addition to the UR-100N, there was an even lighter MR UR-100 missile. The USSR was simultaneously armed with about a dozen types of ground-based mine-based ICBMs and PGRK. Such a "zoo" made it much more difficult to maintain missiles and missile silos. In the future, I hope Russia will come to two or three types of ground-based ICBMs.

    And why did you suddenly attribute the RS-18 to heavy missiles? When were they heavy? They were created by competition with the MR-UR-100. And the latter was put on the database by the decision of the highest echelons, despite the fact that it lost the competition

      For 1990, the Strategic Missile Forces had 7 main types of ICBMs: RT-2, RT-2PM, RT-23 UTTH, UR-100N UTTH, UR-100K, MR UR-100, R-36M. The RT-2 and RT-2PM missiles are completely different, despite a similar designation, as is the series under the general name UR-100 (universal missile). The R-36M family includes three modifications. Such a "zoo" has arisen due to the lobbying of competing design bureaus for their products. With the adoption of three practically identical MBTs with a difference of less than ten years, there was the same story.

    = RT-2 by that time had long been withdrawn from service. There was only RT-2P, which was different from the base. At least 2 regiments for 1990 have already been disbanded. The remaining four. In 1990, according to some reports, they were removed from combat duty and disbanded in 1992-94. Therefore, I did not write about them.
    = UR-100K were removed from the database at the end of 1989, disbanded in October 1990.
    = MR-UR-100 (15A15) no longer stood on the database. About 40 missiles MR-UR-100 UTTH (15A16) remained. And this is already somewhat different ..

    As for the RT-23UTTH, I repent, I forgot about it.
    And as for the R-36M, the family included not 3 modifications, but 3 models.
    = The first (15A14) consisted of three modifications
    = The second (15A18) consisted of two modifications
    = The third (15A18M) consisted of two modifications.
    That is, only 7 modifications. There was one more - the 15A14 missile with the RGCh from 15A18. It was designated as 15A18-1

    It's hard to say whether three or four. About Barguzin, for example, they said that it will be created taking into account the developments in Yars, Bulava and Rubezh. In addition, Rubezh and Barguzin have even different indices, and not adjacent
    So these are probably two different missiles

    "Poplar" is likely to be decommissioned before the end of this decade. About the Topol-M part - KhZ
