The Russian Navy is armed with the 3M30 (R-30) Bulava intercontinental submarine-launched ballistic missile as part of the ammunition load of Project 955/A (Borei/Borei-A) strategic missile submarine cruisers.
The three-stage 3M30 missile with a detachable 6-9 warhead MIRV with individually guided warheads has a range of up to 9,000 km. The power of each warhead is up to 150 kt.
The warhead deployment unit has a modern complex of means to overcome the enemy's ABM system both in the exoatmospheric and endoatmospheric sections of the descending branch of the trajectory.
These include: mock-ups with identical EOPs to the warheads, aerosols distorting the IR signatures of the warheads, IR traps, dipole reflectors, as well as electronic warfare modules operating in the G/X/Ku/Ka wavebands.
The missiles have inertial-navigation guidance systems combined with 3M30 optoelectronic astrocorrection modules, as well as command-telemetry modules that provide correction on the exoatmospheric cruise section of the trajectory.
