talking about 'exposing lies' on the third anniversary of sending unmarked soldiers to take over Crimea while calling said soldiers 'some vigilantes' it's so ... KGBish

have the last word here if you want
I'm pretty well fed up with lies of politicians. I remember, vaguely, I was very young at the time, the war the Netherlands lost against Indonesia in the late '40's. It was an extremely cruel war comparable with the conduct of the Wehrmacht and SS at the Eastern Front and the Dutch authorities were very active in preventing such notions reaching the Dutch main stream media until last year.

Interesting !


Known for publication in New York Times, of course, created a sensation. A few days about his thoughts on long-distance cruise missile 9M729. Let's just talk, but there is a lot of talk - how well the STC "Iskander" fit the 8-meter rocket ...?!

1. Why is 8 meters? The dimension of missiles KB "Innovator" 3M-14E / 9M728 for a distance of about 2500 km is required to build a missile dimensions far sea missile complex "Caliber-NK" - ie, up to 8 meters plus - see illustration, "9M729 var.1.".

2. But such a missile into the standard SPU 9P78-1 not fit. Basically, we look at the complex "Bastion" and work with the body SPU - see picture -. 9P701 options SPU.

3. Theoretically, such STCs can be laid even a hypothetical version of the X-101 air missile - it will provide a restricted range and dual (nuclear / non-nuclear) application. In general - a variant like.

4. But you can not torment the SPU, and remember the X-55SM and equipped with a full-time conformal missile 9M728 (patch) fuel tanks - see illustration, "9M729 var.2.". While preserving all other properties of the range can thus be significantly increased. But it is necessary to alter the WPK. Those. they will probably round, but not round in cross-section shape
Yes, all these arguments give rise to many questions, but it is quite probable "the truth is somewhere near," as they said in a famous TV series. And probably some things not previously obzhdalis. I propose to discuss.

ps Of course these missiles can not be on the STC 2 pcs ... then I drove NYT honest ... about the rest - the future will tell

Iskander/SS-26 use 2 missiles

BM Iskander-M range 7.3 x 0.9 m, 480 km, warhead 480 kg, accuracy 7 m one other export varaint less sophisticated acc. 30 m. Iskander-E surely used by Armenia.

And CM exist yet one Iskander K/9M728/R-500, 6 x 0.5 m range 500 km, warhead 480 kg, accuracy 1 m ! according same website reliable normaly good.

Others designations on the graphic but it is the same.

But the new CM variant, exist ? can be more long, a new TEL more big ? considering Kaliber NK exactly 3M-14S/SS-N-30A do 8.9 m x 0.53 m, Kh-101 do 7.5 x 0.75 m
