Russian Federacy

Had to the fact of that, during its launching, the vector is ejected of the silo for a system of pressurized gases, hindering damages to the silo, it has possibility to recharge the silo and to launch one second safe one of missiles before the enemy ogives reach its targets. Missiles R-36M2 are equipped with digital edge computers, what it guarantees one better performance of this during all the phases of the flight. The cited missiles can operate in such a way in missions of against-force as in against-value missions. Considerable possibilities exist of that eventual a first Russian attack with such weapons obtains to still destroy good part of intercontinental missiles American LGM-30G in ground. Missiles R-36M2 are, certainly, the main weapon of attack of the Russian Federacy, guaranteeing not only the national security as well as global the strategical balance. Another model of MBI in service in the RVSN is missiles RT-2PM Topol, of which the Russians operate 180 units. These are carried and launched for trucks special, being total mobile. This guarantees a indescritvel strategical advantage, since it makes impracticable the performance of the enemy missiles in against-force missions, therefore its necessary localization is unknown.

In such a way, the Russian nuclear counterattack practically is guaranteed. Being able to be launched by its trucks from prepared places as patios and garages in military bases or even though from localization inside of forests, what it complicates already the difficult task still more adversary to find them, such missiles can be gone off in few minutes. With a reach of 10.500 kilometers and carrying a 550 ogive of kt, such missiles possess a precision of up to 150 meters, according to some sources, it becomes what it apt to act, with effectiveness and efficiency, in against-force missions. Its throwers special are capable to cover great distances, beyond possessing equipment that allows that these execute the acquisition of the targets.
