In the Altai Territory, during the round-the-clock large-scale exercises of the Strategic Missile Forces (RVSN), Yars mobile ground missile systems (PGRK) performed intensive maneuver actions on combat patrol routes.
After a 100-kilometer march, the rocket scientists brought the complexes to field positions and began working out issues on the protection and defense of autonomous launchers.
The anti-sabotage formations worked out the tasks of detecting, blocking and destroying conditional saboteurs, including using Typhoon-M combat anti-sabotage vehicles equipped with unmanned aerial vehicles.
As a result, the missile formations have worked out several dozen variants of the capabilities of the units armed with the Yars PGRK.
In total, about 1,000 military personnel and more than 100 pieces of equipment were involved in the exercises.
At the end of March, the exercises with the withdrawal of autonomous launchers of the Yars PGRK to combat patrol routes were held in the Strategic Missile Forces in Yoshkar-Ola (Mari El Republic) and Teikovsky (Ivanovo Region) missile formations.
On January 29, the Ministry of Defense revealed the characteristics of the strategic complex with the Yars-S intercontinental ballistic missile. Among the tactical and technical characteristics of the complex are indicated: caliber-1.86 m, rocket length-17.8 m, launch mass-46 thousand kg, payload mass-1250 kg, range-up to 10 thousand kg, fuel type-solid.
