Military drills involving several Iskander-M ballistic missile systems kicked off in the Buryatia region on Tuesday.
The objective of the exercise was to perform an electronic launch of ballistic missiles, after deploying and arming the launch vehicles undetected. The rough terrain and changing light conditions required advanced maneuvering by the army troops.
The Iskander-M extended-range ballistic missile system is able to hit the targets at a distance of more than 400 km and is equipped with optical and inertial guidance systems. The complex was delivered to the Eastern Military District in 2015.
