Defense Ministry revealed some characteristics of the rocket 9М729

The Department of Defense revealed the characteristics of the 9М729 rocket, which allegedly violates, in the opinion of the United States, the provisions of the treaty on the elimination of medium and short-range missiles. Some of the characteristics of the rocket were given during a briefing for military attaches of foreign countries and the media.

Defense Ministry revealed some characteristics of the rocket 9М729




During the briefing, the Chief of the Missile Forces and Artillery of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, Mikhail Matveyevsky, made a statement. According to him, this range of the missile was confirmed during the joint command-staff exercises Zapad-9.

Unlike the base rocket 9М728, the new rocket contains combat equipment of increased power and a new onboard control complex, which improves the accuracy of hitting the target. During the modernization of the rocket "grew" on 53 cm, which was, respectively, the reason for increasing the launch container to the same length. In addition, a new launcher has been created for the 9М729 rocket, which houses four, not two, rockets.

The general stressed that the 9М728 and 9М729 missiles are manufactured exclusively under factory conditions and it is impossible to refuel the missiles under military conditions, namely, the maximum constructive flight range in 480 km depends on the mass of fuel, which meets all the conditions of the INF. For a further flight, the rocket simply does not have enough fuel, he added.

Recall that Washington accused Moscow of violating the treaty precisely because of the 9М729 rocket, which was allegedly tested for a greater range than claimed in Russia. In this case, the United States can not explain where they have such information, in every possible way evading the answer to this question.

      Caliber and Iskander are two different systems. You could ask how to block a Kalashnikov assault rifle so that it was impossible to shoot 23 mm shells from it.

    Range in 480 km can be doubled if you halve the base. Another question is that on the new Iskander there will be not 2, but 4 PU, ... then this is no longer the Macedonian, since Alexander the Great had only two horns on his helmet, and not 4.

          Yes, I think so precisely because of the amount of PU in the car and all the fuss. And then on 53 cm lengthened.
          Oh, here's another thought I have, most likely they still made a tandem warhead, the first cumulative, so that the main warhead went deeper, the high-impact effect from such a solution would be much higher. And then they increased the accuracy. You can imagine that all of their ZKP and missile defense launchers will have a full corek. Well it is, thinking aloud. Looks like mattresses, very closely watched the tests of this rocket, now the satellite reconnaissance group allows you to see a lot. Or maybe intelligence intelligence, I also do not rule out that.

            The real photo (top-side) was provided by someone on our site a few months ago. Everything fits perfectly into the dimensions. Or do you think that for such a "box" two (and even 4 containers) are optimal? They tried not to show the full ammunition load for humane purposes - so as not to worry "partners / patients". The internal volume of the PU / conveyor is designed just for 6 containers, both Onyx and possible calibers ... well, the winged Iskander.

        This is the main point. I think that nothing prevents from adding fuel at the same plant and supplying such a missile to the troops. And I don’t think that it is so difficult to transfer the Kalibrov ship-borne launcher to land. In general, we have something to answer to the Yankees and, moreover, quickly.

    In addition, a new launcher has been created for the 9M279 missile, which houses four, not two, missiles.

    Andrew! Actually, this missile is not an Iskander-M missile, the phrase is constructed quite incorrectly, which allows a double interpretation. In principle, it was only said that the 9M729 missile is a further development of the 9M728 missile of the Iskander complex. But that's all. Everything else is different. And the launcher is 9P701 instead of 9P78-1, and the TZM is different. So this missile is not an Iskander, although it is, as they say, close by. Perhaps with the further development of the Iskander-M ballistic missile (and there is such information that work is already underway to create a new missile), this cruise will be part of the new complex. But while it is "written on the water with a pitchfork"

    Quote: bayard
    On the net there was a picture of a PU with 6 containers. So 4 is not the limit.

    With 6 containers, a model of an experimental launcher of a coastal anti-ship complex with 2007 anti-ship missiles of the "Caliber" type (CLUB-M) was shown at the MAKS-6 show. A launcher with 4 containers was demonstrated on the observation deck. But these were different vehicles (different chassis). In addition, the layout of the 6 containers was more reminiscent of the package layout of missiles, as on the Buk-M3 complex. It is simply impossible to put two more containers on the machine that was demonstrated then on the site (live) and now at the briefing. For two reasons.
    1. There are only two lifting arrows
    2. Two more containers nowhere to insert

    The car at the site of MAKS-2007, although it belongs to the "Caliber"

    And why is the cumulative warhead on the rocket, the main task of which is the defeat of stationary targets. In principle, this is an analogue of 3M14, only so far permitted by the range agreement

    It is in such a PU that the sea "Caliber" will rise, as we celebrate the commemoration of the INF Treaty. There is no need to design anything new - the dimensions are maintained, the containers are unified. "Comrades for work" - as Comrade Brezhnev said.

    Well, the sea "Caliber" seems to fit there, but is there a need for it? After all, what rolled in Syria, when cruise missiles went over the semi-deserts of Iraq and Syria, may not be able to fly in Europe, where the armies are not a crowd of Barmalei and the troops have a sufficient number of air defense systems, but in the Air Force - AWACS aircraft

    Well, the Bastion is very similar to it. And even more so, I look at the photo and immediately think, there you can put more rockets ..

    It is noteworthy that all the "interested" were absent from the presentation ... they have already designated Russia as the culprit in the INF Treaty violation and they are not interested in anything else, because the Fascinating "comrades" provided them with "irrefutable evidence" that they unconditionally believe.

    Comrades! I apologize for misleading you about the fact that the cars I see in the photographs are different. This one and the same car - MZKT-7930 "Astrologer". I was misled by a cursory glance to the aerodynamic inclined cover above the cabin in the first photo. But regarding the number of TPK I remain in my opinion. There are 4. On the collage, where 6 TPK are shown, a completely different lifting scheme. Not 2 arrows, but a certain pallet.

    But what was shown at a briefing today (cars, of course)
