Russia's military budget is ten times smaller than the total military budget of NATO countries, and this difference makes the Russian arms makers to seek new, innovative solutions and approaches to equalize the chances of the battlefield. obviously, that to win in the case of a global conflict, Russian can only be, if you exceed the number of quality, strike those very «asymmetrical response», who first mentioned in 2007 , Vladimir Putin, in response to the development of the US missile defense system.
One of the novelties, which entered service in the Russian army 2017 It became the newest ballistic missile “skiff” developed by the Central Design Bureau “Ruby” from St. Petersburg and the State Rocket Center named after academician Makeyev commissioned by the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation.

The main feature of the missile in the, that it can be in standby mode at the bottom of the sea or ocean, and then, team, to move to an active state, produce automatic start and hit the specified target. Wherein, «skiff» It can do so without attracting submarines. Tests were ballistic missiles using a diesel-electric submarine B-90 “Sarov”, which has been modified for the use of such weapons. The ship is equipped with torpedo tubes, which is about one meter diameter, and additional ballast tanks, they should maintain the stability and location of the submarine under water after reset rocket.
It should be noted, that besides «Skifa» into service of Navy fleet of Russia recently received a rocket «zircon», but, «skiff» – weapons more serious, referring to nuclear weapons deterrence. One of the main requirements for nuclear ICBM – secrecy of their location. This is necessary in order, so that the enemy did not cause them a preemptive strike, denying the possibility of retaliation. Most masked by all kinds of strategic intelligence – MBR, installed on submarines, and about the same level of secrecy and missiles «skiff».

known, that the first tests «Skifa» They were held in 2008 year. According to their results in 2009 , the prototypes were sent back for revision, and 2013 , the rocket was transferred to the state tests. About Martial characteristics «Skifa» little is known, this information is a state secret.
Oko-planet.su portal publishes this material, partly based on the working hypothesis enthusiasts, signed by Andrew Rukhlova.
However, most «competent» Sources tell us about twenty nuclear warheads, that fly to the targets at speeds okologiperzvukovyh, skirting the terrain. In this case, they used artificial intelligence to the maximum, and they are absolutely invisible to the enemy's defense system. In this part of the warhead charge Aiming task to another part, «less intelligent».
The task of finding stealth missiles on alert «skiff» It is easily solved. Boat carrier is suitable under water to a given point and resets the container. No installation work is not required, since the container only rests on the bottom. Upon receipt of a start command for the partial purge container acquires the quality of toys, dolls, that is, in a vertical position. Thereafter purging continues, and the container begins to ascend. There is an opinion, that the release of the missile from the container using a solid rocket booster occurs at a depth of 50 m. I.e, as it happens on submarines.
Another advantage of the bottom-launched missiles, is its cheapness at statement on alert. In this sense, this type of deterrent weapons is fundamentally different from the strategic missile submarines, Armed approximately the same intercontinental ballistic missiles with nuclear warheads. Generally, now we can confidently say, that the presence «Scythians» armed with our country becomes an additional factor, which warn our overseas «partners» from making hasty decisions…

Development of the complex «skiff» It began in the early 1990s, why the process was slow and so it is clear to you, as a result only 2013 year, design work has been completed, tested and 21 November 2017 the head of the Federation Council Committee on Defense and Security Viktor Bondarev confirmed the statement of the type of weapon on «allowances».

Ballistic missile «skiff» expected to be «connected» System operation «Perimeter»… when all die, the answer to the enemy will «dead hand» – guaranteed nuclear retaliation system.
I even have more fun, and then all NATO scare. This is good
when everyone is crazy.
