Testing of new missiles for OTRK Iskander

The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation announces the successful testing of a new missile of the Iskander-M complex. The head of the Kapustin Yar test site told reporters that interdepartmental tests had been carried out, as a result of which a new missile for an operational-tactical missile complex could soon appear in service.

From the statement of the head of the Kapustin Yar training ground, Major General Oleg Kislov:

Of the most significant events held recently, one can note the completion of interdepartmental tests of a new missile for the Iskander missile system.

General Kislov also told reporters that he considers the development of the capabilities of a promising silo-based missile system on the Yasny-Kura route to be an important event for the test site. General is quoted by RIA News:

The test site is working to create a promising silo-based missile system using the Yasny - Kura route.

The general did not report what specific complex was being discussed.

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

More good rockets - reliable and long-range!

And what is their novelty? Or is it a secret? Tell someone. Well it’s interesting.

Added a toggle switch - increasing the range by 2 times ...

another "surprise" for NATA ... more "a little bit" further and more precisely.

still "a little bit" further and more precisely.

More precisely, YES, but then ... Again, now the United States "squeal" that we are violating the Treaty ...

[HEATHER]

soon And maybe already. Malost noticed that when the tests are being advertised, the equipment is already there. And it is not weak at war.

There is such a concept - "military cunning" is called when the enemy is not waiting for you, and you "came, saw, inherited ..."

[HEATHER]

There is such a thing - "military cunning" Alex. : Why would I explain this? In fact, I am also good at something, and I know, in military affairs, at least I can blow dust off helicopters.

At least I can blow off dust from helicopters.

Well, here's another "military secret" was given out ... the dust is SECRET.

[HEATHER]

.dust is SECRET. So the counter reconnaissance was constantly hanging out in the squadron. All the aviation of the Strategic Missile Forces, although the former. That had to deal with stupidity. Fortunately, when they were, the squadron commander immediately organized the replacement of gearboxes or engines. A couple of months remained until the resource. He saved us as best he could. Yes, the replacement time was delayed. Instead of two days to replace the gearbox, four. Although it will be enough to replace it in three hours. But! These red-headed dogs have spoiled a lot of blood for us.

[Mountain shooter]

We are modestly silent about the range and capabilities of the new missiles ... Otherwise, the "partners" will not sleep well ... We are law-abiding people, we will have enough "Caliber". From Ladoga, for example

[bald]

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

[Sergej1972]

Red-haired devil is it Chubais?)) He never had anything to do with hydropower.))

[rocket757]

Do not tell my horseshoes ... and even better study the documents !!!
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.
And we, gullible / illiterate \ stupid people listened to them hanging their ears and ... they have us ....

[Victor jnnjdfy]

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 about it.

[rocket757]

How is it, how is it not understood? They perfectly understood tyrka grandmother, and such specialists in all sectors we steered !!!
That’s on the steering wheel! They are on the Forbes pages, and we-s -... well, you know where.

[Sergej1972]

I admit my wrong.

Russophobic neighborhoods around Russia, this hotel is for you orphans. Not calm nights and days for you !!!

Well, there is no secret in this. Unlike other complexes at Iskander, we cannot write, for example, a missile 9М925as that would be wrong. This is the designation of the missile part of this rocket. The head itself, for example, is denoted 9N935K6, which means the cassette head. The general name of the missile for the complex will sound like 9M925K6.
If the rocket, for example, does not have a cluster part, but a high-explosive one, then it will be a completely different rocket and in its index instead of the letter K there will be a letter Ф... It will be a different, "new" rocket. Well, plus, of course, various options for the guidance system in the final section - radar, optical correlation, etc.
But these are more missile modifications than "new" ones. So, for sure, the test of some missile with a new warhead with an old or possibly slightly modernized engine is nearing completion.

Hello colleague, The comment is sensible, no doubt about it. However, please pay attention to this:

completion can be noted interdepartmental testing a new missile for the Iskander missile system.

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

[Old26]

Generally, it is not entirely clear what the general said and what the journalists misinterpreted. The general's phrase is incomprehensible

General Kislov also told reporters that he considers the development of the capabilities of a promising silo-based missile system on the Yasny-Kura route to be an important event for the test site. General is quoted by RIA Novosti:

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

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