Interesting design improvement and innovation in the new Russian Liquid Fuel SLBM, this has a throw up weight of 2.8T and max tested range of 11,000 km
Sineva SLBM
The missile comprises a number of new technical designs:
* three-stage missile of silo-limited dimensions;
* application of a high-accuracy astro-inertial control system and ââ¬ÅGLONASSââ¬Â navigation satellite radio correction system substantially increased the firing accuracy;
* various flight trajectories at minimum and intermediate firing ranges and dispensing of re-entry vehicles within an arbitrary zone can be realized ;
* operational capabilities of missiles were improved due to the possibility of launching from high latitudes of Arctic.
