For 2016 we arranged 16 test dispatches it intercontinental ballistic rockets, including flight test strategies for cutting edge weapons, and control of the specialized status of rocket frameworks that entered administration. The quantity of test dispatches ought to increment one year from now," the Russian protection service told journalists. Out of an aggregate 16 test dispatches, 14 will be directed as a component of the advancement of new rockets and warheads, the Strategic Missile Troops Commander, Colonel-General Sergey Karakayev, explained, by.

The majority of the tests will happen at Russia's essential rocket test range in Kapustin Yar in Southern Russia. It is likely that some of tests will include dispatching another hypersonic coast vehicle (HGV), the YU-71, which in the long run could be mounted on the RS-28 Sarmat, the nation's most up to date super substantial fluid pushed atomic intercontinental ballistic rocket (ICBM) right now a work in progress (See: "Russia's Secret New Weapon: Should the West Be Afraid?") The Sarmat ICBM can convey ten overwhelming or 15 lighter warheads and is relied upon to be accepted into Russia's Strategic Missile Force by 2020, as indicated by Russian media reports.

An extra 700 key warheads are kept away alongside roughly 2,000 nonstrategic warheads. "Russia conveys an expected 311 ICBMs that can convey around 1,050 warheads," the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists further notes. Russia is currently resigning all Soviet-time ICBMs and supplanting them with new weapon frameworks, an undertaking that ought to be finished by 2022.
