Already for the fourth time: the Russian Sarmat rocket has failed in the Russian Federation - isw (photo)

Analysts reported that, despite stable failures at the stage of testing, the rocket had already been put on combat duty. The Kremlin lost the ability to receive details for the predecessor of Sarmat by attacking Ukraine. Satellite images made on September 21 in the Arkhangelsk region indicate that the Russian Federation has failed to test the intercontinental ballistic missile (IBR) PC-28 "Sarmat". This is stated in the report of the American Institute for War Study (ISW) on September 22.

"The picture shows a large crater at the jubilee starting mine, where Russian troops previously conducted test launches of Sarmat missiles, and four fire trucks that respond to active small fires near the destroyed mine," analysts described. The intelligence was informed that the photos are the consequences of a failed Sarmat test. However, thoughts on how the explosion occurred. In particular, he could happen near the start, during launch or before launch during the gas station.

It is noted that the Jubilee was specially converted for the possibility of "Sarmat". Russia is professed to replace the Soviet predecessor of the governor. After the start of the war in Ukraine in 2014, an agreement on the purchase of details for the Voivoda collapsed, so the aggressor country accelerated the development of replacement of it. However, the development of Sarmat has been delayed repeatedly, and the last unsuccessful test has become the fourth one today.

Russia was able to successfully test this rocket only once - in April 2022. It was reported that in September 2023 the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation put it on combat duty. Analysts emphasized that a failed test does not necessarily indicate that the nuclear triad of the Russian Federation is less effective than it was before.

However, this indicates that under pressure from sanctions and requirements for MIC through the war in Ukraine, the enemy continues to make efforts to develop new rocket capabilities. We will remind, on September 22 it became known that the test PC-28 "Sarmat" turned "full failure". There was information that the rocket exploded in the mine and destroyed the test ground.
