/EXCLUSIVE TASS/. The second missile regiment in the Orenburg division of Strategic Missile Forces (RVSN) with hypersonic combat equipment "Avangard" will be fully staffed by 2025. This was reported to TASS by a source close to the Russian military department.

"By 2025, the second missile regiment as part of the Yasnensky missile connection of the RVSN with the Avangard complex will be fully staffed. The number of mine launchers on combat duty will be brought to full staff," he said.

TASS has no official confirmation of this information.

On December 17, 2022, the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation reported that on the eve of the Day of the Strategic Missile Forces, another regiment equipped with the Avangard missile system in the Yasnensky missile compound took up combat duty.

For the first time, the regiment with the "Vanguards" took up combat duty in the Yasnenskaya Missile Division (stationed in the Orenburg region) in December 2019.

Avangard is a strategic complex with an intercontinental ballistic missile equipped with a gliding cruise combat unit. The combat unit was developed by NPO Mashinostroeniya (Reutov, Moscow region) and has been tested since 2004. It is capable of flying in dense layers of the atmosphere at a hypersonic speed of up to Mach 27 (about 32 thousand km / h), maneuvering along the course and altitude and overcoming any missile defense. The complex was first announced by Russian President Vladimir Putin in March 2018.
