According to their information, several installations have already been transferred to the border. It is emphasized that the system testing was planned earlier, but it had to be postponed.

Until there is an official statement from the Ministry of Defense or representatives of the developer plant, it is difficult to guess what kind of missile it is. But my personal assumption is that it is a medium-range missile with a more powerful, compared to the Iskander, cluster warhead.

The newest Russian missile system "Oreshnik" was tested in the fall of 2024. Now the system is preparing for deployment in Belarus, where the "Zapad-2025" military exercises will soon take place. Presumably, one of the key episodes will be the practice of using "Oreshnik".
