INTRODUCTION

The Armed Forces are an integral attribute of statehood. They are a state military organization that forms the basis of the country's defense, and are intended to repel aggression and inflict defeat on the aggressor, as well as to perform tasks in accordance with Russia's international obligations.

The Armed Forces of Russia were created by Decree of the President of the Russian Federation on May 7, 1992. They form the basis of state defense.

In addition, the following are involved in defense:

· Border troops of the Russian Federation,

· Internal troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation,

· Railway troops of the Russian Federation,

· Troops of the Federal Agency for Government Communications and Information under the President of the Russian Federation,

· Civil Defense Forces.

Strategic Missile Forces (Strategic Missile Forces) - the type of troops of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, the main component of its strategic nuclear forces. They are intended for nuclear deterrence of possible aggression and defeat as part of strategic nuclear forces or by independently massed, group or single nuclear missile strikes of strategic targets located in one or more strategic aerospace directions and forming the basis of the enemy’s military and military-economic potential.

Modern Strategic Missile Forces are the main component of all our strategic nuclear forces.

Strategic missile forces account for 60% of the warheads. 90% of nuclear deterrence tasks are assigned to them.

History reference

The origin of the Strategic Missile Forces is associated with the development of domestic and foreign missile weapons, then nuclear missiles, and with the improvement of its combat use. In the history of the Missile Forces:

1946 - 1959 - the creation of nuclear weapons and the first samples of guided ballistic missiles, the deployment of missile formations capable of solving operational tasks in front-line operations and strategic tasks in nearby theaters of military operations.

1959 - 1965 - the formation of the Strategic Missile Forces, the deployment and operational deployment of missile units and parts of intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) and medium-range missiles (RSD) capable of solving strategic tasks in military-geographical areas and in any theater of operations. In 1962, the Strategic Missile Forces took part in Operation Anadyr, during which 42 R-12 RSDs were secretly deployed in Cuba, and made a significant contribution to resolving the Caribbean crisis and preventing the American invasion of Cuba.

1965 - 1973 - the deployment of a group of intercontinental ballistic missiles with single launches (OS) of the 2nd generation equipped with monoblock warheads (warheads), turning the Strategic Missile Forces into the main component of strategic nuclear forces, which made the main contribution to achieving military-strategic balance (parity) between the USSR and USA.

1973 - 1985 - equipping the Strategic Missile Forces with 3rd generation intercontinental ballistic missiles with multiple warheads and means to overcome the missile defense of a potential enemy and mobile missile systems (RC) with RSD.

1985 - 1992 - arming strategic missile forces intercontinental stationary and mobile missile systems of the 4th generation, the elimination in 1988 -1991. medium-range missiles.

Since 1992 - the formation of the Strategic Missile Forces of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, the elimination of missile systems of intercontinental ballistic missiles in Ukraine and Kazakhstan and the withdrawal of mobile Topol missiles from Belarus to Russia, the re-equipment of obsolete types of missile systems in the Republic of Kazakhstan with unified monoblock ICBMs of stationary and mobile based RS- 12M2 of the 5th generation (RK “Topol-M”).

The material basis for the creation of the Strategic Missile Forces was the deployment in the USSR of a new branch of the defense industry — rocket science. In accordance with the Decree of the Council of Ministers of the USSR dated May 13, 1946 No. 1017-419 "Issues of Jet Arms", the cooperation of the leading ministries of industry was determined, research and experimental work was begun, and a Special Committee on Jet Technology under the Council of Ministers of the USSR was created.

The Ministry of Armed Forces has formed: a special artillery unit for the development, preparation and launch of missiles of the FAU-2 type, the Scientific Research Institute of the Main Artillery Directorate (GAU), the State Central Jet Testing Range (Kapustin Yar training ground), and the Office of Jet Arms in the composition of GAU. The first missile unit armed with long-range ballistic missiles was the special forces brigade of the Reserve of the Supreme High Command - the armor of the RVGK (commander - artillery major general A.F. Tverretsky). In December 1950, the second special-purpose brigade was formed, in 1951 - 1955. - 5 more compounds that received a new name (since 1953), - engineering brigades of the RVGK. Until 1955, they were armed with ballistic missiles R-1 and R-2, with a range of 270 and 600 km, equipped with warheads with conventional explosives (general designer S.P. Korolev). By 1958, the personnel of the brigades conducted more than 150 combat training missile launches. In 1946 - 1954 brigades were part of the artillery of the RVGK and obeyed the commander of the artillery of the Soviet Army. They were led by a special department of the artillery headquarters of the Soviet Army. In March 1955, the post of Deputy Minister of Defense of the USSR for special weapons and rocketry was introduced (Marshal of Artillery M.I. Nedelin), at which the headquarters of the reactive units was created.

The combat use of engineering brigades was determined by the decree of the Supreme High Command, the decision of which provided for the giving of these formations to fronts. The commander of the front was led by the engineering brigades through the commander of artillery.

On October 4, 1957, for the first time in world history, the first artificial Earth satellite was successfully launched from the Baikonur training ground by personnel of a separate engineering test unit with the R-7 combat missile. Thanks to the efforts of Soviet rocket launchers, a new era has begun in the history of mankind - the era of practical cosmonautics.

In the second half of the 1950s. Strategic RSD R-5 and R-12 equipped with nuclear warheads (general designers S.P. Korolev and M.K. Yangel) with a range of 1200 and 2000 km and ICBMs R-7 and R-7A (general Designer S.P. Korolev). In 1958, the RVGK engineering brigades armed with the R-11 and R-11M tactical missiles were transferred to the Ground Forces. The first ICBM compound was the object with the code name "Angara" (commander - Colonel MG Grigoriev), which completed its formation at the end of 1958. In July 1959, the personnel of this compound carried out the first ICBM combat training launch in the USSR.

The need for a centralized command of troops equipped with strategic missiles led to the organizational design of a new type of aircraft. In accordance with the Decree of the Council of Ministers of the USSR No. 1384-615 of December 17, 1959, the Strategic Rocket Forces were created as an independent type of aircraft. According to Presidential Decree No. 1239 of December 10, 1995, this day is celebrated as an annual holiday - Strategic Rocket Forces Day.

On December 31, 1959, the following were formed: the Main Headquarters of the Missile Forces, the Central Command Post with a communications center and a computer center, the Main Directorate of Missile Weapons, the Directorate of Combat Training, and a number of other departments and services. The Strategic Missile Forces included the 12th Main Directorate of the Ministry of Defense, which was in charge of nuclear munitions, engineering units previously subordinate to the Deputy Minister of Defense for Special Arms and Jet Technology, missile regiments and three air divisions directorates, subordinate to the cancer to the Commander-in-Chief of the Air Force, arsenals of missile weapons, bases and warehouses of special weapons. The Strategic Missile Forces also included the 4th State Central Training Ground of the Moscow Region (Kapustin Yar); 5th Research Testing Ground of the Moscow Region (Baikonur); a separate research and testing station in the village. Keys in Kamchatka; 4th Research Institute of Moscow Region (Bolshevo, Moscow Region). In 1963, on the basis of the Angara facility, the 53rd research and development testing ground for missile and space weapons of the Moscow Region (Plesetsk) was formed.

From the history of creation

The beginning of the use of powder rockets in military affairs in India and China dates back to the X-XII centuries, and in Western Europe to the end of the XIII century. In Russia in the XVIII-XIX centuries. were armed with incendiary and high-explosive rockets. In the middle of the XIX century. in connection with the spread of rifled artillery, interest in missile weapons fell. Work on its creation was resumed only after the First World War at a new scientific and technological level, which led to the adoption of the armies of some countries (USSR, Great Britain, Germany) and the use of reactive systems in the Second World War. In 1944, fascist Germany used the V-1 and V-2 missiles. Especially intensively developing missile weapons after

World War II, as a result of which many armies received missile systems for various purposes.

In our country, Strategic Missile Forces were created in 1960. They are equipped with nuclear missile weapons and are designed to carry out strategic missions.

Strategic Missile Forces, as an independent branch of the armed forces, they are designed to solve the tasks of nuclear deterrence of an attack from outside in the interests of the Russian Federation and our allies, and to ensure strategic stability in the world. These are the troops of constant combat readiness, performing the role of the main component of the strategic nuclear forces (SNF) of the country.

high combat readiness and accuracy of nuclear missile strikes;
almost unlimited range;
the ability to strike at many objects simultaneously, to successfully overcome air defense and missile defense;
the possibility of a wide maneuver of missile attacks;
independence of combat use from weather conditions, time of year and day.

These troops are armed with stationary and mobile missile systems.

Strategic Missile Forces - one of the individual and constitute the main ground component of the nuclear forces of the Russian Federation strategic purpose.

They obey the General Staff of the RF Armed Forces and are obliged to always maintain combat readiness.
The missile troops are equipped with land-based intercontinental ballistic missiles with mine and mobile based. They are often supplemented with nuclear warheads.

Strategic Missile Forces

At the beginning of its appearance, the role of nuclear weapons was assigned exclusively as an offensive means and gaining a military advantage. In today's reality, this is more of a political means for moving toward a goal, restraining aggressive opponents.

However, the deterrence factor has not only this global weaponry itself, but the presence of actual combat features of the characteristic and wide possibilities of use in any situation.

With universal reach, tremendous destructive power and without incurring heavy costs of upkeep, strategic nuclear forces provide effective deterrence at a lower cost. It applies to states with superior economic, quantitative resources and the level of equipment of troops with the latest highly effective conventional weapons.

The Strategic Missile Forces, with their daily combat readiness, provide our country with the opportunity to carry out a long and economically difficult reformation period of the Armed Forces and the entire military organization of the Russian Federation.

Their strategic missile forces are destined for nuclear deterrence of alleged attacks and retaliatory attack actions by their own or universal strategic forces, with the implementation of a large-scale, group and single nuclear missile strike against enemy strategic targets, which play a key role in the fighting ability of the opposing side.

These objects can be together or separately, at a significant distance.
In addition, the challenge is the implementation of nuclear deterrence. In modern times, a powerful nuclear shield and mobile complexes supplementing it seem to be a significant argument for nuclear deterrence and maintaining international stability.

History of Strategic Missile Forces

The first achievements of strategic missile weapons began in the post-war Soviet Union. Nuclear weapons and initial samples of guided ballistic missiles were produced, missile formations were deployed to quickly solve problems in conflict situations and strategically important tasks of close combat use.

The communications vehicle MS-1 provides the Topol missile division with all types of communications during combat duty

In the 1950s, the first rockets began to be launched in series, and a need arose for the missile forces to organize a centralized leadership. As a result, the formation of strategic missile forces took place.

Strategic Missile Forces Day

December 17, 1959 should be considered the day of formation of the Strategic Missile Forces
The process of formation of the Strategic Missile Forces, the deployment, the establishment of combat missile racks, was developed in relation to formations and units with intercontinental ballistic and medium-range missiles, designed to solve strategic tasks with geographical dispersion throughout the world.

Being a type of troops, as a result of the transformation by decree of the President of Russia, on March 24, 2001, they become a branch of the Armed Forces.

Strategic Missile Forces Commander

In 2010, Colonel General Sergey Karakaev was appointed to the post of Commander of the Strategic Missile Forces;

The composition of the strategic missile forces

The structure of the strategic missile forces has not changed since the Soviet army. In it, as before, there are armies (missile), which include missile divisions and missile regiments. For example, the 27th Guards Missile Vitebsk Red Banner Army from headquarters in Vladimir, which includes five missile divisions

Components are led by the main missile command of the troops. Location of the main landfill Kapustin Yar - Astrakhan region.

In Kazakhstan, the region where the tests are conducted is based - the Sary-Shagan test site, a separate research and testing station is based on the Kamchatka Peninsula - the Kura Test Site.

The Strategic Missile Forces also have:

4th Central Research Institute,
peter the Great Military Academy of Strategic Rocket Forces,
Serpukhov Military Institute of Rocket Forces,
repair plants and bases.

The Strategic Missile Forces allocated for the operation of 7 airfields and 8 heliports. The composition of the Strategic Missile Forces was replenished with engineering units, they are equipped with engineering maintenance and camouflage machines, remote demining machines, KDM track-laying machines.

Strategic Missile Forces Armament

R-36M2 missiles (RS-20V, SS-18) are two-stage liquid rockets capable of carrying 10 warheads.
Their deployment took place in the late 80s, in the early 90s. Still saved on combat duty.

UR-100NUTTH (SS-19) missiles are two-stage liquid rockets capable of carrying 6 warheads. Their deployment took place in the late 70s, in the early 80s. While staying on alert.

Soil missile systems Topol (SS-25) - three-stage solid fuel, designed to carry one combat charge. The deployment of missiles took place from the mid-80s to the beginning of the 90s.
At the moment, they are being removed from service at the end of the operational period.

The Topol-M (SS-27) missile system with the RS-24 Yars modification - three-stage solid-fuel rockets, initially had a monoblock version. The complex was created as an option with mine-based and as an option with soil mobile base.
The deployment of the RS-24 complexes of the mobile version began in 2010.

Strategic Rocket Forces Development

It should be noted that now our country does not have the opportunity to cover the entire territory of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. This is not surprising, because intercontinental ballistic missiles in their greater half have completed the period of operation.

There was a need for improvements and new developments, but the reforms have not yet been completed. Certain states, with their alliances, enjoy a tangible advantage in general-purpose forces. The current economic situation in our country gives strategic nuclear forces the role of key military forces that can compensate for potential military threats against us.

But it is not all that bad. New missile warning facilities are being launched. In orbit, military satellites have been put into use, serving as the most important link in early warning systems.

Missile systems and nuclear missiles, according to recent reports, are not reduced in number. They are purposefully replaced by the latest developments, namely, Topol-M, Yars mobile complexes.

Strategic missile system RT-2PM2 "Topol-M"

All technical innovations adopted in the Strategic Missile Forces need qualified service. Training institutions and military commissariats are familiarized with this need. The requirements for appropriate education and technical disciplines are presented to lower-level military personnel and junior command personnel, in this case, they are more preferable.

We wrote about the 47th interspecific regional training center of the Strategic Missile Forces, designed to train junior specialists.

The subsequent development of the Strategic Missile Forces in the form of main points involves: maintaining combat readiness for the respective military groups, increasing the period of use of missile systems for a maximum period, accelerating the deployment of the latest Topol-M missile system with stationary and mobile basing, improving combat and combat guidance systems for the army and weapons, gaining the scientific and technological advantages of key equipment for the Strategic Missile Forces.

Total

Active steps are currently being taken on the latest missile rearmament, and it is predicted that by the 20th year the new missile systems will already be a little less than 100 percent. More military units will be provided with new equipment designed for combat duty. Improving combat management systems strategic missile forces

Strategic Missile Forces (Strategic Rocket Forces of Russia) - the land component of the strategic nuclear forces (SNF) of the Russian Federation.

Troops of constant alert. The Russian Strategic Missile Forces are armed with intercontinental ballistic missiles of mobile and stationary bases with nuclear warheads. The Strategic Missile Forces of Russia are an important element of the national defense doctrine of Russia.

Story

The first unit of the ICBM was the “Angara” object (commander-colonel Grigoriev MG), formed at the end of 1958. In July 1959, the personnel of this compound carried out the first training launch in the USSR ICBM.

December 17, 1959goda formed as a form of the Armed Forces of the USSR. The continuous build-up of the quantity and quality characteristics of the missile systems that were in service contributed to the establishment of nuclear parity between the USSR and the USA in the 1970s.

In 1962, during the operation "Anadyr" 36 RSD R-12 were secretly deployed in Cuba, which caused the Caribbean crisis.

The signing in 1987 of the treaty between the USSR and the USA on the elimination of medium and short range missiles (INF), and then the treaties on the limitation and reduction of strategic offensive arms START-1 (1991) and START-2 (1993) led to a significant reduction in the number The Strategic Missile Forces, the removal from combat duty and the elimination of missiles with separable warheads are their main striking force.

In the armed forces of Russia is an independent branch of the military.

In 1995, by presidential decree No. 1239 of December 10, 1995. “On the establishment of the Strategic Missile Forces Day and the Military Space Forces Day” was established the Day of the Strategic Missile Forces.

Currently, the Strategic Missile Forces development strategy provides for an increase in their share of mobile missile systems and the deployment of Topol-M systems capable of overcoming modern and prospective missile defense systems.

Composition

Now the strategic missile forces (type of troops) include the command of the Strategic Missile Forces (dislocation in the suburban village of Vlasikha), three rocket armies, which include rocket divisions organizationally. In addition, the Strategic Missile Forces include: the State Central Interspecific Test Site (Kapustin Yar), the Test Site (in Kazakhstan), the Separate Research and Testing Station in Kamchatka, the 4th Central Research Institute and four educational institutions (Peter the Great Military Academy Great in Moscow, included in it on the rights of separate divisions military institutions Serpukhov Military Institute of the Rocket Forces of the city of Serpukhov, Rostov Military Institute of the Rocket Forces of the city of Rostov-on-Don). The Strategic Missile Forces also include arsenals and central repair plants, a base for storing weapons and military equipment. The number of troops today with civilian personnel is about 120 thousand people, two thirds of whom are military personnel.

As of the beginning of 2008, there are 682 strategic carriers in the composition of Russia's strategic nuclear forces (SNF) capable of carrying 3100 nuclear warheads. Compared with 2007, the number of carriers decreased by 39 units. (5.3%), and the number of warheads is 177 units. (5.3%).

As of July 1, 2009, Russia had 608 carriers capable of delivering 2,683 warheads, which is 26 carriers and 142 warheads less than in January of the same year.

The Strategic Missile Forces include 367 carriers capable of carrying 1,248 nuclear warheads. Currently, the RVSN is armed with 59 heavy missiles R-36MUTTH and R-36M2 (SS-18, Satana), 70 UR-100NUTTH missiles (SS-19), 174 missiles as part of the Topol mobile soil complex (SS-25 ), 49 missiles of a silo-based Topol-M missile complex (SS-27) and 15 rockets of the Topol-M mobile soil complex (SS-27).

RVSN aviation

Strategic missile forces operate 7 airfields and 8 heliports. The aircraft of the Strategic Missile Forces consist of Mi-8 helicopters of all modifications, An-24, An-26, An-72, An-12 aircraft. In good condition maintained about 50% of aviation technology. According to the results of 2008, the average flight time in the RVSN aviation for the crew was: by airplanes 99 hours, by helicopters 58 hours.

State and prospects

A number of factors potentially reduce the combat capability of the Strategic Missile Forces and the Russian nuclear triad as a whole, including:

80 percent of intercontinental ballistic missiles expire
complete withdrawal from the composition and destruction of the majority of nuclear railway missile systems (BZHRK)
the location of the long-range bombers of the Russian Air Force on two bases, with separately stored warheads
partial lack of coverage in the Atlantic and most of the Pacific, increasing the requirements for the mobility of the triad

From the positive points worth noting:

commissioning of a new generation of missile attack warning system in the Leningrad Region and the Krasnodar Territory
from 2006 to 2008, the launch into orbit of four satellites of the Cosmos series of the Oko early warning system
all submarine missile carriers of the project 667БДРМ and part of the missile carriers of the project 667БДР over the past few years have undergone medium repair with elements of modernization and replacement of missiles on the R-29RMU2
the resumption in 2007 of regular flights of strategic aviation to remote patrol zones that have been interrupted since 1993
the resumption of production of the Tu-160
development and the beginning of tests in 2007 of a new intercontinental ballistic missile RS-24 with a multiple rocket system IN

For 2008, the Strategic Missile Forces planned 11 combat training and test launches of strategic missiles.
