Traffic on the highway was blocked, and launchers raised one missile each. Each Iskander combat vehicle carries two missiles and is capable of launching them at different targets in a minute.

A command and staff vehicle based on KamAZ is located on the side. This is probably training on the scale of a unit or a training deployment as part of the Zapad exercises. For combat work, Iskanders choose more secluded places.

There is also no point in spoiling the road surface. After all, if you launch a missile from the highway, it will be impossible to drive on it later. In any case, until major repairs.

Earlier www1.ru reported that the Oreshnik missile turned out to be lighter than the Yars: it will fly to its target from near space.
