Therefore, the application for this rocket to weapons Russia had nothing to do with reality," he assured. The expert explained that according to the standards adopted by the USSR, it must undergo 10 successful tests in a row to accept the missile. That is why, for example, they tested the ballistic missile for a very long time, because they could not achieve the required amount of successful launches in a row.
Katkov stressed that one successful launch of Sarmat missile, which was stated by the Russians, does not allow it to replenish the arsenal. Moreover, in his words, the repeated launch and a further explosion in the mine, which "dispersed the test complex", it suspended work. Now there is no development where to run. The analyst specified that the test launcher with the appropriate equipment for control has exploded.
When it comes to placing a new intercontinental ballistics, it means the installation and starting complex. "This is a mine with all the equipment for starting, laying flight programs and rocket. The Russians will have to start with the creation of all this," Katkov said. He added that, given the sanctions imposed against the Russian Federation, it will be very difficult to get the staff for the Kremlin strategic nuclear determination system.
According to Ukrainian intelligence, on the night of May 19, the Russians had a demonstrative "educational and combat" launch of intercontinental ballistic missile PC-24 "Yars", but this did not happen. We will remind, the military-political observer Alexander Kovalenko warned that "lull" in the shelling of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation testifies to the accumulation of Russia's ammunition for "another act of terror".
