Bulava was declared invulnerable

1

The Russian R-30 Bulava, a sea-based solid-propellant intercontinental ballistic missile, is capable of penetrating any of the existing missile defense systems. This was told by the chief of staff of the command of the submarine forces of the Pacific Fleet of the Russian Navy, Rear Admiral Arkady Navarsky, revealing the key feature of the D-30 complex.

The main advantage is the ability to maneuver in the acceleration section, which makes the missile invulnerable to any missile defense system

- said the chief of staff.



Navarsky also noted the ease of maintenance of the Bulava in comparison with other missiles of this class.

As a reminder, on October 21 the strategic missile submarine Knyaz Oleg (Project 955A Borey-A) carried out a single launch of the R-30 Bulava missile as part of the state tests of the nuclear submarine. The Bulava warheads have successfully achieved their targets at the Kura training ground in Kamchatka.


K-552 "Prince Oleg" was laid down in the summer of 2014 at the Sevmash shipyard and launched exactly 4 years later. The transfer of the submarine to the Pacific Fleet is scheduled for the end of this year.

    It sounds funny, it is capable of overcoming any missile defense system! Anecdote. And the essence of this anecdote is that any ICBM launched outside the range of interceptors of any missile defense system is 150-600 km, unbreakable. The acceleration time of our ICBMs, the active section of the trajectory on which the ICBM can still be intercepted, is 3-6 minutes. After that, only we have systems capable of intercepting warheads over the point of destruction. I mean that all ICBMs launched from beyond the Urals and from Siberia, 100% will convey their greetings to where planned. Those interceptors of their missile defense simply do not have time to the launch point of ICBMs in those 5-6 minutes while the missile is accelerating.10 Voevod is enough to completely destroy 80% of the US industry and completely destroy the nodes of the energy and transport infrastructure ...
