RS-28 Sarmat ICBM

rs 28 sarmat intercontinental ballistic missile - sarmat icbm - Hello everyone, welcome back again with us at Military TV. In this episode, we are going to talk about an ’invincible’ nuclear weapon that really exists, ‘Sarmat’. In another Cold War II salvo, Russian president Vladimir Putin unveiled the details of a new-generation ballistic missile in his speech to the Federal Parliament on March 1, 2018 gave an overview of the development status of several “new generation” strategic weapon systems specifically designed to escape U.S. missile defense systems. He stressed that the Russian Ministry of Defense had started an active phase in partnership with the space industry companies. The #missile system is called RS-28 Sarmat, also called as SS-X-30 Satan 2 by NATO. Apparently, Putin has given priority to build these new strategic missile systems for their strategic deterrence capability. The development of the Sarmat missile reportedly started between 2009 and 2011 in order to replace the aging R-36M2 Voyevoda or (SS-18 Satan ICBM) and coincided with the deterioration of Russia’s relations with the West. The decision to build the “new-generation Satan“ was not without controversy, because large liquid-propellant missiles were long considered obsolete. For example, the United States long abandoned liquid propellant in its strategic arsenal in favor of compact solid-propellant missiles. The #RS-28 is reportedly housed in a modified 15P718M silo launching system. The maximum range of the RS-28 is 18,000 kilometers. With a launch weight of over 200 tons, it can carry up to 10 multiple independently targetable re-entry vehicles (MIRV), each carrying a thermonuclear warhead. The RS-28 #Saramta, with a total length of 35.5 meters and a diameter of 3 meters, is also reportedly capable of carrying hypersonic weapons, according to Russian President Vladimir Putin.
