The timing and number of launches of ICBM RS-28 "Sarmat" within the framework of flight design tests have been announced

Flight design tests of the newest Sarmat intercontinental ballistic missile will begin soon, the first launch of ICBMs is scheduled for autumn 2021. So far, only throw tests of the rocket have been carried out.

In total, this year, within the framework of flight design tests of the Sarmat ICBM, two launches are planned. TASS citing a source in the defense industry complex. According to him, the first launch of "Sarmat" will take place in autumn, the second - at the end of the year. There is still no official information on ICBM testing. In the spring of this year, it was reported that three launches of "Sarmat" would be carried out within the framework of the LKI, the third quarter was called the beginning of the tests.

Again, according to unofficial information, the launches will be made from a silo located on the territory of the Plesetsk cosmodrome. One of the planned launches will be at maximum range.

The available official information, voiced earlier by the military, does not say anything about the timing of the launch of the Sarmat ICBM and their number, but notes that the end of the flight design tests of the new Sarmat ICBM is set in 2021. Also this year, the industry should master the serial production of a new weapons and related systems, but there is no data in this direction. The deployment of the Sarmat ICBM on combat duty of the Strategic Missile Forces is scheduled for 2022.

The RS-28 "Sarmat" ICBMs are being prepared to replace the world's most powerful silo-based ICBMs, the RS-20V "Voevoda" (NATO - SS-18 "Satan"); the missile will become the carrier of the Avangard hypersonic blocks. The first complexes will enter service with the Uzhursky and Dombarovsky missile formations.

This is closer to the natural ending. And this is very good! the mericatos chews a carrot in response. or a banana - in this case it makes no difference.

Reliable and calm service to Sarmat for many years))

Good luck to scientists, engineers, workers and everyone who works with their heads and hands.
Unfortunately, there are fewer and fewer of them.

With Sinawa and Liner, the tests were successful.
With Zircon, all tests are according to plan.
Sarmat are going to be accepted into service next year.
When did you see such terms of successful creation?

Unfortunately, there are fewer and fewer of them.

Everything is correct. The average age of KB employees (those who create and "Sarmat" in particular) is far over 50. It is alarming, but young people are also coming lately. How do I know? Don't ask.

At one time, the issue of the assembly and partial production of the Soyuz Angara launch vehicle in the city of Komsomolsk on the Amur for Vostochny was considered, everything came down to one factor, the lack of qualified personnel. Now production is in Omsk, with more complex logistics to Vostochny.
Something like that, unfortunately, but earlier Komsomolsk on the Amur was an industrial center east of Lake Baikal.

[Alex777]

Yes, the Far East has suffered greatly and has not yet recovered, unfortunately.

[Mountain shooter]

Also "Sarmat" is on the way. Straight, our "partners" are happy ... one more "headache" ...
How to answer?
Something will be "sanctioned" once again ... Gas to Europe, titanium for Boeing, nuclear fuel (enriched), aluminum ... Stop buying Russian oil too ...

Duties on seamless pipes were introduced, as ours were cheaper, and Ukraine, too, for the company with the same pipe at the same place.

[knn54]

"Stiletto" about five years to mind (completion of the control system after each launch) was brought up.
And then a year?

[2 Level Advisor]

unfortunately you are right, Nikolai .. Sarmat has not even flown yet yet .. what kind of weapons next year .. God forbid, in 2023, and then on condition that all tests for 5 pass, which usually does not happen .. but I hope everything however, even in 2023-4 they will be put into service, this is a serious missile in technical terms and its introduction into service is 2-3 times more difficult and more valuable than missiles of the Yars / poplar type.

[tralflot1832]

And how do they test for the maximum range, we only shoot at the Kura in Kamchatka. Just start up higher and from there along the Kura hubs?

[2 Level Advisor]

As far as I remember, they are allowed to enter the southern part of the Pacific Ocean, but there are a lot of approvals, so only sometimes ..

In general, intercontinental missiles (according to the SALT-2 agreement) are considered to be missiles with a flight range of more than 5500 km. Distance from Plesetsk to Kura - approx. 6000 km, i.e. quite "fits" into the concept of "intercontinental range" ......

[tralflot1832]

The article talks about tests for the maximum range. The declared range is up to 18000 km. It cannot be launched in a circle Plesetsk Kura Plesetsk.

ICBM RS-28 "Sarmat" is being prepared to replace the world's most powerful silo-based ICBM RS-20V "Voevoda" (NATO - SS-18 "Satan"), the rocket will become the carrier of the Avangard hypersonic units. The first complexes will enter service with the Uzhursky and Dombarovsky missile formations.

"Sarmat" will not become the carrier of the "Avangard" blocks, it will make orbital flights through the southern hemisphere bypassing the American missile defense system.

[2 Level Advisor]

in fact, the Vanguard was originally developed for Sarmat .. and the American missile defense system is very mobile and with the help of carriers such as SM6 it can be built up from any side of the strip .. and just the Vanguard is needed so that this build-up does not help them especially .. You somehow do not in the subject, dear man ...

Avangard was developed for the UR-100. A "Sarmat" is designed for orbital bombardment.

and the American missile defense system is very mobile and can be extended from any side of the strip with the help of SM6 carriers.

SM6 works on targets during the acceleration phase and therefore is located closer to the borders of a potential enemy, and in the United States, mine-based GBI interceptors (not mobile) are deployed.

Quote: Level 2 Advisor

and it is precisely the Vanguard that is needed so that this build-up does not help them too much ..

At the moment, the South of the United States is completely open, there are no GBI position areas or early warning radars. Therefore, it is necessary to enter through the Southern Hemisphere ...

[Reserve buildbat]

The fact that Avangard is being tested on the UR-100 does not mean that it is designed for this missile. Yes, and it is stupid to somehow develop the latest block for an aging rocket, no? UR-100 on duty until replacement. It was put into service no later than 1980, service life is 35 years. I won't tell you about renewals, I don't remember. But if we consider that satellites are being put into orbit on the basis of the UR-100, the write-off is underway. So there is a replacement.

what you say - in Wikipedia it is written .. and even if you read a little more, and even more so know, you would be aware that the Vanguard was installed on the UR-100 precisely because Sarmat is not yet ready, for which the Vanguard was created .. didn’t think - why do they put the "old" UR-100 into the mines from the "Voevoda"? and the Vanguard is put on it correctly - anyway, it is better than the old BB ..
2. Orbital bombardment was also related to the development of the Voevoda ..
3. and somewhere I argue that the minke whales have worse protection from the south?

Then you know that the standard equipment of the Sarmat is 3 BB Avangard.
And you also know the scheduled dates for the removal of the UR-100N UTTH missiles from the database.

[Vladimir61]

Yes, apparently we are in a hurry! Straight, as according to the laws of wartime, which was observed in the pre-war and war years of the Second World War. Then some developments were immediately put into service, even before the end of the full set of tests.

[iouris]

It is interesting.
From the middle of the XNUMXth century, Polish humanists began to express the idea that the Polish gentry descended from the Sarmatians, an ancient steppe people known from Greek and Roman ethnography. In the XNUMXth century, this thesis became the basis of the ideology of the Polish nobility - the gentry, Sarmatianism (a kind of social racism: the aristocracy was considered the descendants of the Sarmatians, and the common people - the Slavs and Litvinians).
Who and why introduces such ambiguous names for military equipment?
