The missiles of the Russian Iskander-M operational-tactical complex and the Kh-47M2 Kinzhal aeroballistic missiles will avoid destruction by the latest American Aegis Ashore missile defense system. It has an extremely narrow window of opportunity to repel massive strikes by aerospace attack weapons of the Russian Aerospace Forces and Navy.
Three universal vertical launch systems Mk 41 VLS have only 24 launch channels for SM-3 Block IB and SM-6 Block IB anti-missiles, while the number of domestic missiles can exceed 200 - 400 units.
Also, the Mk 142 kinetic interceptors placed in three stages of the SM-3 Block IB and SM-3 Block IIA anti-missiles are exclusively exo-atmospheric, capable of intercepting targets at altitudes of more than 90 - 100 km, therefore, intercepting Iskanders-M with SM-3 is extremely unlikely.
Interception of Iskanders-M and Kinzhals is also extremely difficult with the help of endoatmospheric anti-missiles such as SM-6 at altitudes up to 33,000 m, because the former can perform anti-aircraft maneuvers with overloads of up to 25 - 30 units.
Earlier www1.ru reported that the unique tanker "Engineer-Admiral Kotov" was launched in Russia.
