BMD Focus: What’s wrong with the Russian Bulava?

Posted by Matt in February 3rd, 2007

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2 (UPI) — What has happened to the Bulava missile, the submarine-launched new star of Russia’s formidable strategic weapons arsenal?

Everything seemed to be shining on the Bulava. It had three successful test launches in a row. It was not some radical new design with untested technology but a mature adaptation of the already tried and tested Top-M intercontinental ballistic missile. It did not lack funds for development. With soaring global oil prices, the Russian government, as the world’s largest energy exporter, has been spending more money on upgrading and modernizing its strategic rocket forces than at any time in the past quarter century.

Then suddenly it all started to go wrong for the Bulava. Test ICBM launches failed three times in a row in a brief four month period in the second half of last year. The third failure occurred on Dec. 24

SS-23 Spider 9K714 OKA Missile
In the early 1970s, the Soviet Army sought a replacement for the 9K72 Elbrus (SS-1C `Scud B') system, which had a very slow reaction time [around 90 minutes to prepare and fire] and its poor accuracy when using conventional warheads. The replacement system, codename 9K714 Oka, was developed by KB Mashinostroyenia (Machine Industry Design Bureau) in Kolomna. The new 9K714 system featured a reaction time of under 30 minutes and used the low-maintenance solid-fuel 9M714 missile. The 300 km range of the R-300 (`Scud') was surpassed by the 400 km range of the 9M714/R-400. In the early 1970s the Warsaw Pact had only a limited ability to strike North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) air bases in Europe. However, by the mid-1980s Soviet forces could strike NATO airfields in all types of...

Barack Obama - Yes I Can Make Us Defenseless—Just Like Dec 7, 1941
Liberals, click "more info." America has always been attacked when she was perceived as being week. That is what will happen without a strong military. For you liberals who think Obama sounds so good, and for you conservatives who want a good laugh, I'll break down Obama's foreign policy in layman's terms: 1) I'll stop spending $9 billion a month in Iraq. Does that mean he'll spend $8 billion a month in Iraq or none at all? 2) I opposed the Iraq War from the beginning; you know when I was a state Senator, back in Illinois. 3) I'll cut the "unproven missile defense system." You know, that missle defense system that has repeatedly shot down missiles and that same missile defense system that the Europeans and the Israelis want. Yeah that one! 4) I'll allow China and Russia to put their...
