The Russian Ministry of Defense has announced the completion of the re-equipment of another regiment of the Yasnensky division of the Strategic Missile Forces with the Avangard silo-based missile system.
It is noted that the Avangard with a hypersonic warhead "will effectively complement the weapons systems of the Strategic Missile Forces and expand the capabilities of the missile forces group".
For this purpose, the necessary infrastructure was prepared - from the construction of a combat launch complex to places for training duty shifts, performing combat duty and resting personnel.
The intercontinental ballistic missile is loaded into the silo launcher using a hydraulic mechanism of a special transport and loading unit. The most complex technological operations last several hours.
This is not the first operation to re-equip regiments of the Yasnensky missile division with this type of missile in the Orenburg region. In the West, the increase in the number of Avangards is regarded as a "chilling threat" capable of overcoming the Earth's atmosphere, against which air defense systems are powerless.
According to the commander of the Strategic Missile Forces, Colonel-General Sergei Karakaev, hypersonic maneuvering warheads, like those of the Avangard, may also be installed on mobile systems of the Russian Strategic Missile Forces. Karakaev noted that such strike assets are best at overcoming various air defense systems.
