Missiles Launch TBM «Iskander-M», OTR «Tochka», MLRS «Smerch»

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------­---------
TQBM «Iskander-M»
Russian: Оперативно-тактический ракетный комплекс — ОТРК «Искандер».
English: Theatre quasi-ballistic missile system — «Iskander-M» (eng. «Iskander»).
GRAU designation — 9К720; NATO reporting name — SS-26 Stone.

The Russian armed forces «Iskander-M» cruises at hypersonic speed of 2100--2600 m/s (Mach 6--7) at a height of 50 km. The Iskander-M weighs 4615 kg, carries a warhead of 710--800 kg, has a range of 500 km, and achieves a CEP (Circular error probable) of 5--7 meters.
During flight the missile follow a quasi-ballistic path, performing evasive maneuvers at different altitudes and trajectories and can pull up to 20 to 30 G to evade anti-ballistic missiles. For example, in one of the trajectory modes it can dive at the target at 90 degrees at the rate of 700--800 m/s performing anti-ABM maneuvers.

Targets can be located not only by satellite and aircraft but also by a conventional intelligence center, or by a soldier who directs artillery fire. Targets can also be located from aerial photos scanned into the computer. The missiles can be re-targeted during flight in the case of engaging mobile targets.[4] Another unique feature of Iskander-M is the optically guided warhead, which can also be controlled by encrypted radio transmission, including such from AWACS or UAV. The electro-optical guidance system provides a self-homing capability. The missile's on-board computer receives images of the target, then locks onto the target with its sight and descends towards it at supersonic speed.

OTR-21 «Tochka»
Russian: Оперативно-тактический ракетный комплекс ОТРК «Точка».
English: Operational tactical rocket complex — «Tochka» (eng. «Point»).
GRAU designation — 9K79; NATO reporting name — SS-21 Scarab.

MLRS «Smerch»
Russian: Реактивная система залпового огня — РСЗО 9К58 «Смерч».
English: Multiple Launch Rocket System — «Smerch» (eng. «Tornado»).

OK, I have a question about the Iskander M missile. What warhead does it carry? I'm talking about the weight of the warhead. How heavy is the warhead it carries. 'Cause on some sources, I found, 700 kg, 480 kg, wiki talks about a warhead weighing between 710-800 kg. So which one is it?

@StiviGun1

Iskander-M - version, range - 500 km, weighs 4615 kg, carries a warhead of 710 kg.

Iskander-E - export version, range - 280 km, weighs 3800 kg, carries a warhead of 480 kg.

Iskander-K - variant with cruise missile P-500 with range up to 2000 km, carries a warhead of 480 kg.

@REGAification Seriously? Are you retarded?

Russia is on the Iranians side, and so is China for that matter.

Who do you think has built and continues to build Iran's nuclear power reactors.... RUSSIA

Both Russia and China have said the will defend Iran if it is attacked.

Hows the interest payments going on that $15 Trillion U.S. Debt?

@bubbakush911 fuck you banana nose JEW

[StiviGun1]

@castle001 Nope, update your sources. China is not on Iran's side anymore. They recently denounced Iran's nuclear program and they very clearly said that, although China is a good friend with Iran, it will not isolate itself from the rest of the world just to maintain relations with just one country. And Russia won't do this either. If US wants to attack Iran in the next 4 years, it can do it without a problem.
