are working on the creation of a new ballistic missile in Russia, which probably will replace the missile “Bulava”. New weapons will be equipped with advanced nuclear submarines of the fifth generation “Husky»
The State rocket center Makeyev “Izvestia” was told that among the tasks of the Ministry of Defense of SRC, not only to create new heavy ballistic “Sarmat” missiles for the army, but also the development of new maritime ballistic missile. Experts believe justified the start of work to build a new missile for submarines now. “Bulava” is now in mass production, but its development lasted for almost two decades, since 1997.
«The fact that weapons, military equipment and its components are continuously improved. And Russia is no exception, we have developed new, more efficient, energy-intensive types of rocket engines and new types of solid rocket fuel. Some samples of the arms using a new type of rocket fuel enabling public already know. I mean multiple launch rocket systems “Tornado-G” and “Tornado-S”, range missiles which increased by several tens of percent, “- explains the « Economics today » editor in chief of” Arsenal magazine fatherland » Victor Murakhovski.
Kkogda designed new versions of ballistic missiles for submarines, they are based on new types of solid rocket fuel, and thus new types of engines. It is clear that by using a more efficient fuel increases as the distance of the flight of such missiles, and the opportunity to place more weight and size load
But also the recent progress has been made in the area of electronic technology, which allows to increase the pointing accuracy of such missiles and to provide individual guidance on their purpose warheads. In addition, Russia has developed new tools to overcome missile defense systems, which, undoubtedly, will be equipped with new ballistic missile submarine “- continues military expert
Recall that the beginning of construction of the first boats of the new generation is not planned. before 2030. So what level threats in theory should work against new ballistic missiles, standing on the arms of the “Husky.” With this question, we also helped to understand Victor Murakhovski:
«Rockets must first provide a guaranteed counterattack through the territory of the aggressor and its objects, if that, as indicated in our doctrine or used against Russian weapons of mass destruction, or threatens the very existence of conventional arms States
The second problem -. it is to be sure to overcome not only the existing but prospective missile defenses. These problems will be solved and the new ballistic missile submarine ».
