Testing of new missiles for OTRK Iskander

24
The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation reports on the successful conduct of tests of the Iskander-M missile complex. The head of the Kapustin Yar test site told reporters that interdepartmental tests had been conducted, following which a new missile for an operational-tactical missile complex could soon appear in service.


From the statement by Major-General Oleg Kislov, head of the Kapustin Yar test site:
Of the most significant events held recently, we can note the completion of the interdepartmental testing of the new missile for the Iskander missile system.


Testing of new missiles for OTRK Iskander


Also, General Kislov told reporters that he considers the development of the capabilities of a promising mine-based missile system on the Yasny-Kura highway to be an important event for the test site. General quotes RIA News:
Polygon is working to create a promising silo-based missile system using the Yasny-Kura highway.


What kind of complex in question, the general did not report.

For reference: the plan of the Kapustin Yar test site appeared in the USSR 13 May 1946 of the year for testing the first Soviet ballistic missiles. This year marks the 70 anniversary of the arrival of the first servicemen at the training ground and the creation of the first launch pad.

    soon And maybe already. Little noticed that when the tests are advertised, the technology is already there. And it is fighting not weak.

      There is such a thing - "military trick" is called when the enemy is not waiting for you, and you "came, saw, inherited ...", so much so that the enemy then does not know where to put his dung for ten years ....

            . DUST is SECRET. So the counter-reconnaissance was constantly hanging out in the squadron. All the aircraft of the Strategic Missile Forces. Though and the former. That's what I had to do with stupidity. Fortunately, when they were a comez, they also organized the replacement of gearboxes or engines. A couple of months remained before the resource. Komeska He saved us as best he could. Yes, they dragged on the replacement time. Instead of two days to replace the gearbox, four. Although, it would be enough to replace it and three hours. But! These red mufflers spoiled us a lot of blood.

    We are modestly silent about the range and capabilities of new missiles ... wassat And then the "partners" will sleep badly ... We are law-abiding people, we will have enough "Caliber". From Ladoga, for example laughing

    For some reason, there is a desire to shoot it in the direction of the Middle East - to feel the noble return in the shoulder.

    And Cap Yar is not only valuable fur ..... chavoto I am not writing it ..... it is a beautiful Volgo Akhtuba floodplain, a place of rest and fishing !!! This year, in general, everything was a BUNCH !!! There was MUCH and LONG water in the floodplain (I must say thank you not for the red line for this).
    In general, it’s fun to go to work in the morning and get stuck in a bottleneck because the shells are so healthy / tall. that while driving through the village I am “collecting” all incorrectly fixed wires !!! People in the same shorts, jumped out onto the street !!! left without light !!!
    It's fun to live close to such landfills ... at night on a fishing trip you can see the start of rockets !!! find a piece of rocket in the fields !!! and run away until the "funny guys" arrived.
    Something like this turns out.

        For RAO EU, et hto promised to reform the energy sector, improve it, according to the Volga for a voucher ???
        Crushed !!! I stole !!! And now - “He has a lot of money” - as he himself recently broadcast at a corporate party for the elite.
        In short, the red devil, tagged, drunk is to blame for everything ... and further on the list.

        Chubais was directly related to RAO UES of Russia. All inclusive. Including hydropower. Reformer x ..... Our energy sector was reformed by people who did not understand anything in it.

    Well, there is no secret in this. Unlike other complexes at Iskander, we cannot write, for example, a rocket 9М925as that would be wrong. This is the missile part of this rocket. The head itself, for example, is designated 9N935K6that means cassette head. The general name of the rocket for the complex will sound like 9M925K6.
    If a rocket, for example, is not a cluster part, but a high-explosive part, then it will be a completely different rocket and in its index instead of the letter K there will be a letter Ф. This will be another, “new” rocket. Well, plus, of course, various options for the guidance system in the final section - radar, optical correlation, etc.
    But these are more likely rocket modifications, not "new" ones. So, for sure, a test of some missile with a new warhead with the old or possibly a slightly modernized engine is nearing completion

      Greetings, colleague, hi Koment intelligent, no doubt. However, please pay attention to this:
      completion may be noted interagency trials a new rocket for the Iskander missile system.

      Interdepartmental !!! Those. RV-VVS-Navy !!! And here is the mallet for floating airfields: why are we worse than the hongfuz? We were the pioneers in this matter with the R-27K missile. It was only later, * China * they made their DF-21D ... and now they are pushing the am in an adult way, while the AD / A2 zones are drawn on the maps ...
      However, something like that. Yeah. yes

    Actually, it’s not entirely clear what the general said and what the journalists distorted. General's incomprehensible phrase

    Also, General Kislov told reporters that he considers the development of the capabilities of a promising mine-based missile system on the Yasniy-Kura highway to be an important event for the training ground. General quoted by RIA Novosti:


    The phrase about the development of a promising missile system on the Yasny-Kura highway is not clear ...

    Greetings, colleague! Now you don’t even know after the above phrase. It is not clear, interdepartmental tests or tests at an interdepartmental training ground.
    To be honest, this complex is needed for the Air Force. For the navy? It's hard to say, but about 10 years ago there was information about the marine modification of the Iskander. It was called EMNIP "Iskander-MRK." I don’t remember the index, but looking in the archive is too lazy
    Why really need this complex for the Navy, with such a relatively short range - HZ. Although it flies of course faster than the winged one, such as Onyx. As for the arousing of the amers ... They scrolled for the start of the Americans notably. But even now, the Chinese say that this complex is not for defeat on the go, but exclusively only in the bases. They have not yet been able to bring the radar
