Ministry of Defense: "Mace" may be adopted by the end of the year

Flight design tests of the latest sea-based ballistic missile "Bulava" will resume in mid-June. This was announced today by an official representative of the Russian Defense Ministry, Colonel Igor Konashenkov.

“The next, 15 th in a row, a test launch is planned to be carried out from a regular carrier - the nuclear submarine of strategic purpose“ Yury Dolgoruky ”, said Konashenkov.

According to the representative of the Ministry of Defense, by the end of this year, five rocket launches are planned from the White Sea to fly to a given area of ​​the Kura test site in Kamchatka.

“With positive test results, the Bulava missile system can be adopted by the Naval fleet Russia already at the end of 2011 - the beginning of 2012, ”the official Konashenkov said.

He noted that the “Bulava” test launches will be carried out under the control of a state commission, whose members will be directly on board the nuclear-powered submarine during the shooting. ”

Recall that the last launch of the Bulava took place on October 29, it was made from a heavy nuclear-powered strategic missile submarine “Dmitry Donskoy” from the White Sea and was recognized as successful. Thus, the number of successful missile launches equaled the number of unsuccessful (7: 7). The next test launch of the Bulava will be held in June from the board of the nuclear submarine (NPS) Yury Dolgoruky.

I hope that Mr. Serdyukov will also be on the submarine during the launch of rockets. Then let the launch be all missiles in one gulp! Honestly, even the presence of the guarantor of the constitution along with the minister is not a pity. Almost sorry ... But the crew of the submarine sorry. There are few sensible guys in the fleet. And these guarantors with stools still molest .... lawyers and joiners - a dime a dozen.

Stavr,
I agree. There are many sensible guys. But because of these guarantors, no one is going to serve not on a contract, nothing. And the farts-the Bear-Bears choose themselves, so we see what we see. Alas.

Well, the mace will start up normally, then it will switch over (as always because of defective devices) and fly right into the residence of the lollipop ...

[Escander]

Interesting. But will she ever pass the test?
I remember in his youth Putin scared her Amerov ...

Wow, how many defeatists came running, not one was noted for a successful launch of the Liner. In order to know the number of smart guys in the fleet, you must have at least some relation to it. Yeltsin began to scare amers with the Bulava, why is he not remembered. It was then that a fundamental mistake was made, at the naval complex, the main finances were the landowners, who had no idea about some elementary things. I don't understand why gloat? The process goes on, errors are corrected.

[Escander]

Cabin boy.
The “process is going on” is excessively long.
Hence the gloating.
Or do not agree?
Or, that "on the marine complex the main finances turned out to be the land investigators" - is it normal, according to the nuclear doctrine of the Russian Federation?
Not “gloat”, but adequately perceive the given reality.

Do you have information that you need to "drive horses"? Did you personally participate in the development and adoption of the armament complex, or is it said in the media that it was too long? (rhetorical question)
I repeat once again, the landowners turned out to be the main ones at the naval complex during the times of President Yeltsin and Defense Minister Sergeev, and the current situation is deciding. It would be possible to decide otherwise, they would give it to Miass. Second, at the moment, too much money has been invested to take and write off http://www.lenta.ru/articles/2011/05/31/wasted/ as our "Western friends".
For an adequate perception of the prevailing reality, reliable information is needed, but you even want to present what is written by the journalist in "black light".

[Escander]

In my understanding, it is difficult to imagine more reliable information when there are boats and there are no missiles for them (even without rurnalammers).
And of course, you don’t need to “drive horses”. It’s better to wait until the boats rust, the atomic ship is inexpensive.
Your arguments are weak, in order to present everything in a “white light”, it would be better to present it in an adequate way.

[cabin boy]

Have you read the news? It also says there will be tests, just from "Yuri Dolgoruky", which boats are rusting?

[Escander]

Which are underwater.

[Oleg]

We will take into account that the carrier boats that were not accepted for service were already plundered. That is, there is no turning back.
The power of faith in one's own strength must be given credit.

Is a tote open for a successful launch?

Americans think I was already scared. This crap is unlikely to reach them. But it can fall to Scandinavia. Here it is necessary to be afraid of finals with Swedes and Norwegians.
