To what height does the Topol-M rocket rise? Intercontinental missile system "Topol-M": photo. The fastest rockets in the world

The security of all life on earth is ensured by the balance of nuclear weapons of the eternal enemies of the United States and Russia. On the scales of these scales lie the Topol-M intercontinental ballistic missile on one side, and the Trident II missile on the other.

Someone can say why such a weapon is needed? It must be destroyed and fought by conventional means. But war is very bad. This is the loss of territory, resources, and most importantly, the death of people, moreover, mostly civilians. And the presence of such weapons has a deterrent character. The enemy will think a hundred times whether he should attack our country when, in response, Poplars begin to grow on his territory. It gives a chance, a huge chance to prevent a war without starting hostilities.

History of creation

After the end of World War II Soviet Union and the United States of America conducted large-scale developments in the field nuclear weapons and means of delivering warheads to the target. Developments were carried out with varying success. The Americans were the first to create atomic weapons and were even able to test them against Japan. The USSR soon caught up with its opponents and conducted its own tests of this type of weapon.

In the middle of the 20th century, the Cuban Missile Crisis flared up, and again thermonuclear weapons were at the forefront. Although the Soviet Union was inferior to the United States in terms of the number of warheads, the Americans still did not dare to unleash a third world war sparing their territories. The USSR had delivery vehicles that allowed it to hit the territory of America, and this cooled the hotheads. The remoteness of the continent has ceased to play into the hands of the United States.

In 1985, a new deterrent appears. The first missile regiment, equipped with Topol launchers, took up combat duty. At the end of the same decade, work began on a new ICBM for mine and mobile complexes. For development involved:

1. Moscow Institute of Thermal Engineering (the design team already had experience in creating a mobile soil complex);
2. Yuzhnoye Design Bureau in Dnepropetrovsk (the main developer of silo-based missiles).

This tandem was supposed to produce a unified complex

But this was not destined to come true, because the country collapsed. As a result, many enterprises involved in the creation of the new complex ended up on the territory of different states. For example, Yuzhnoye Design Bureau became owned by Ukraine.

By decree of the President of the Russian Federation in 1993, all the developments on this installation were preserved and formed the basis for a deep modernization of the already existing RT-2PM complex. The task was set to create the Topol-M complex. Having carried out deep improvements in performance, almost completely redesigning the rocket, the designers did not go beyond the existing international treaties. They left a big foundation for future modernization, thereby maintaining the Strategic Missile Forces in an effective and combat-ready form.

In the course of modernization, great attention was paid to the breakthrough of promising missile defense probable adversary.

"Topol-M" was supposed to be able to inflict a response or response-oncoming missile attack across enemy territory.

This implied the possibility of launching missiles when nuclear strike has already taken place in our country and damaging factors from it are raging around. Or enemy missiles are in the air. Then another problem arises, which the complex must solve successfully. This is overcoming the nuclear shield over the targets. Also, such installations should have had greater autonomy.

Democracy was raging in the country. Scientific institutes, technical laboratories collapsed, factories of the military-industrial complex went "for darma" into private hands. Big-headed people fled to the west to have a decent salary and the opportunity to provide for their families. But, despite all the difficulties, the patriots of their homeland worked on its defensive power.

A year later, a test launch of a silo-based missile was made. By the end of 1998, near Tatishvo, the first modernized complexes of mine location took up experimental duty. IN early XXI century, the mine-based complex was put into service. After that, work on the mobile complex accelerated. Six years after the adoption of the mine complex, the first mobile division "Topol-M" took up combat duty.

This rocket was the first mass-produced, universal intercontinental missile ground based. Even unification with the sea-based Bulava missile system has been carried out.

Description of the complex

The Topol-M rocket incorporated all the latest in rocket science and all the best in the scientific and technical sector of our country's development. According to many experts, everything related to this project can be singled out with one term “For the first time”.

Almost all the differences from the first model are incorporated in the process of delivering the warhead to the target.

They hide in the system of stable flight and penetration through the countermeasure system of a potential enemy. The active phase of the rocket flight was reduced due to the improvement of main engines. And the control devices make its trajectory difficult to determine for the means of detecting the enemy. The guidance system has also been improved, it has become insensitive to powerful electromagnetic pulses.

The rocket has three stages. All of them are solid fuel, made of composite materials under the Cocoon project. Management is carried out by tilting the nozzles of the propulsion engine. The case is coated with a special coating with a high content of rare elements. The cables of the control circuit are covered with a special protective casing and shielded from all types of radiation.

The control system of the Topol-M complex was created on the basis of a high-powered digital on-board computer and a gyro-stabilized platform with command gyroscopic instruments. An element base has been established that increases survivability in a nuclear explosion.

The warhead is detachable, designed in a monoblock type, contains a thermonuclear charge with a capacity of 550 kt in TNT equivalent.

It can be equipped with a block-type split head. The number of blocks varies from 3 to 7. Each block has its own guidance system.

The anti-missile defense complex installed on this instance consists of:

1. active and passive decoys. At the same time, they are practically indistinguishable from the original in all tracking ranges throughout the entire flight path. In the atmospheric section of the trajectory, they ensure confident overcoming of high-resolution radars. It consists of 15 to 20 Volnolet class targets;
2. means of distortion of characteristics. They consist of a combination of various coatings and active interference generators, dipole reflectors and aerosols. Influence the means of detecting the enemy;
3. trajectory correction engines. They create a chaotic movement of the warhead towards the target, making it difficult to aim countermeasure systems at it.

The launch of a rocket is akin to a mortar shot - vertically upwards. This provides additional security for a complex technical control system.

After the rocket leaves the TPU, the first stage engine is started. The warhead itself is already moving along the descending branch of the trajectory.

Classification

1. The installation received the designation RT-2MP2.
2. The missile was given the designation 15Zh65.
3. The mobile complex was given the name 15P165. The complex includes 9 ICBMs at APU.
4. The stationary complex was given the name 15P065. The complex includes 10 ICBMs in silos.
5. By international treaties the complex passes as RS-12M2.
6. According to the NATO designation SS-27 “Sikle-B”, which means “Sickle” in translation.

Possibility of accommodation

The complex can be both stationary and mobile-based. Carried out partial unification with the "Mace".

Mine launchers are used for placement. Silo is a vertical well with load-bearing structures placed in it with fastening, as well as devices for servicing and launching a rocket.

From above, it is closed with an armored plate, which can slide off to the side or rise on a hinge, depending on the design features. Provides compliance with the specified climatic and temperature regimes. Maintains the rocket in constant readiness for launch. At present, converted silos from Stiletto and Voyevoda are used for stationary complexes. In the mines, the missiles are placed in a metal transport and launch container.

The structure of one complex includes 10 missiles and a command module with a high degree of protection. The process of loading the rocket into the mine takes more than 8 hours. The term of combat duty of one missile is up to 15 years.

To accommodate the Topol-M complex, the MZKT-79221 self-propelled chassis was used. This is a special multi-axle heavy-duty chassis developed by Minsk designers in 1997.

Serial production started in 2000.

The wheelbase provides good maneuverability, overcoming various obstacles and movement on various types of soil. The rocket is placed in a fiberglass TPU, which performs all the functions of ensuring readiness for launch. The dimensions of the mobile unit allow launching from almost any place:

• length - 22 meters;
• width - 3.4 meters;
• weight 120 tons.

The complex includes 9 mobile units, escort and security vehicles, and a control vehicle. Since 2013, engineering camouflage vehicles began to enter the complex. They hide the traces of the complexes that have entered the database. And they also create clearly visible traces leading to false positions.

The area of ​​​​responsibility along the patrol route of one complex is 25 thousand square kilometers.

Tactical and technical characteristics

The mobility of the complex is ensured by the installation of a powerful turbodiesel engine on the chassis. The tractor is equipped with pneumatic tires 1600 * 600-685 in size, which allow you to move off-road. Additionally, a pressure control system is installed.

The missile guidance system ensures that targets are hit with a small error. And given the power of the warhead, this deviation can not be taken into account.

Outcome

The characteristics of the Topol-M missile make it possible to say with confidence that the enemy will be defeated in any conditions of warfare.

The Strategic Missile Forces of our country will always keep parity, having such a strategic complex in service. And overseas "friends" will look back a hundred times before taking an ill-considered aggressive step towards unleashing an armed conflict.

In addition to the Topol, the newest ICBM complex with a multiple warhead will soon come into service.

The characteristics of this weapon are secret, the appearance of some data is possible only after the complex is on combat duty.

ROCKET COMPLEX 15P765 "TOPOL-M" WITH OS TYPE silo



Since the beginning of the 1990s, in Russia, only one missile system has been developed for the Strategic Missile Forces - Topol-M with mine launchers of the OS type and mobile ground launchers. After 1991, the technical appearance of the rocket was refined, only Russian organizations and enterprises. The Perm NPO Iskra joined the development of the first stage of the ICBM. In 1992, MIT issued an addition to the draft design, reflecting the changed appearance of the rocket and the complex as a whole. In 1993, by Decree of the President of the Russian Federation, MIT was given the task of creating a unified ICBM by the forces of Russian enterprises. Almost the same requirements were imposed on the Topol-M missile as on fourth-generation missiles. Today we can say that the Topol-M ICBM is characterized by a high degree of continuity from the previously created Topol complex.
Opportunities for improving the Topol-M missile, in relation to the existing Topol missile, were determined by the START-1 Treaty, according to which a missile was considered new if it differed from the existing one in at least one of certain signs. Weight and size characteristics and some principles of the design of the Topol-M ICBM were limited by this agreement. Nevertheless, the Topol-M rocket was significantly changed in comparison with its predecessor. The conditions for modernization are defined by the START-1 Treaty, according to which a missile is considered new if it differs from the existing one (analogue) in one of the following signs: number of steps; type of fuel of any stage; starting weight by more than 10%; the length of either the assembled rocket without the warhead, or along the length of the first stage of the rocket, by more than 10%; diameter of the first stage by more than 5%; casting weight by more than 21% in combination with a change in first stage length of 5% or more.

The most advanced scientific and technical solutions were applied in the new rocket: materials, structures, solid propellants. The Topol-M rocket was made according to the scheme with three marching and combat stages. Propulsion stages use high-density composite fuel increased energy development of NPO Soyuz. The rocket uses controls of high efficiency and speed. The warhead is equipped with a powerful thermonuclear charge, meets the most stringent requirements for nuclear explosion safety and has a particularly high resistance to nuclear and other weapons.
The developers of the Topol-M missile system successfully solved the problems of effective counteraction to advanced advanced missile defense systems with space-based means. In accordance with the main development tasks, the Topol-M rocket has high capabilities to overcome a promising missile defense system with space-based elements and can be used in conditions of a massive nuclear missile strike on the positional area of ​​​​basing of the Strategic Missile Forces complexes. The rocket has no protruding parts, including aerodynamic rudders. Thus, along with the use of appropriate construction materials and coatings provide increased resistance to dust and ground formations and other damaging factors of a nuclear explosion of laser and other beam weapons.
Rocket propulsion systems are characterized by a reduced duration of operation. As a result, most of the active part of the trajectory is within the atmosphere, which prevents the use of space-based missile defense systems and reduces the intensity of the effect of radiation weapons on the missile. According to experts, the Topol-M missile system is the first purely Russian-made missile system, which, in terms of its tactical and technical characteristics, will significantly exceed the complexes that are in operation.

Since March 1997, the work on the Topol-M complex was headed by the director and general designer of MIT Yu.S. Solomonov. Recalling the work on the mine version of the Topol-M complex, he says: “When designing the Topol-M rocket, we needed to create a design that, for the first time in domestic and world practice, would allow us to solve a number of complex tasks. It was necessary to develop a missile that was universal in relation to the types of basing, which would have: equally high fighting qualities both as part of a stationary mine complex, and as part of a mobile soil complex based on a self-propelled launcher; the highest accuracy of shooting and the possibility of long-term combat duty in various combat readiness; high level resistance to the effects of damaging factors of a nuclear explosion in flight; adaptability to the deployment of anti-missile defense systems of various composition by a possible adversary.
…We managed to significantly improve one of the main indicators military weapons- accuracy of firing, reduce the vulnerability of the missile when exposed to missile defense, increase the resistance of the missile in flight to the effects of damaging factors of various types of weapons, including nuclear weapons, and ensure increased nuclear explosion safety. The warranty period of storage of the new rocket is longer than that of the previously created ones. Another important task was solved: the complex, from development and manufacture to delivery to the troops, was created by Russian cooperation.
The cooperation of subcontractors of MIT for the RK "Topol-M" included the Federal State Unitary Enterprise "NPTs AP im. Academician N.A. Pilyugin (general director EL. Mezhiritsky), FSUE RFNC-VNIIEF (director R.I. Ilkaev, chief designer Yu.I. Faikov), FSUE FPDT Soyuz ( CEO Yu.M. Milekhin), NPO Iskra (general director and general designer M.I. Sokolovsky), FSUE Votkinsky Zavod (general director V.G. Tolmachev), FSUE OKB Vympel (general director and general designer D.K. Dragun), OJSC KBSM (general director and general designer N.A. Trofimov) and other enterprises.
The mine-based type of silo with high resistance assumed minimal deployment costs, so it began to be developed in the first place. One of the main advantages of the structure of missile regiments with the Topol-M missile system was the use of resource-saving technologies. The need to change the diameter or depth of the old "glasses" of mine launchers has disappeared - only the system for attaching the container to the rocket is changing.
The development of the mine complex, given the fact that at the site two mine launchers - Yuzhnaya-1 and Yuzhnaya-2 - were then being prepared for the Yuzhnoye Design Bureau missiles, began to be carried out for the Topol-M missile. It was necessary to convert these silos under new rocket which was done in a relatively short time frame. The first launch of the Topol-M rocket was carried out from the re-equipped Yuzhnaya-1 silo, developed by the Vympel Design Bureau (chief designer O.S. Baskakov).

Initially, for the Topol-M ICBM, it was proposed to use OS-type silos developed by OKB Vympel for medium-class missiles UR-100NUTTH (15A35). In the process of study, certain problems were revealed. If for the mobile soil version of the Topol-M complex such a problem was the choice of chassis for the launcher - seven- or eight-axle, then for the stationary version the use of previously built mines became the "critical moment". At the same time, their protective devices with opening drives, the instrument compartment, the barrel, the entrance hatch and the input devices remained without modifications. With minimal modifications, a depreciation system is used during re-examination.

Subsequently, in accordance with the joint decision of the MIT, GURVO MO and KBSM of August 21, 1992 on the conversion work, design materials were developed that determined the main areas of work for the conversion of silo launchers of R-36M UTTKh heavy missiles to the Topol- M. Since January 1993, in accordance with the signed START-2 Treaty, it was allowed to re-equip 90 silos for heavy missiles under the Topol-M missile. This important decision opened up the possibility of maintaining a silo grouping of the Strategic Missile Forces based on launchers for heavy missiles of the R-36M UTTKh type (according to START - RS-20) to accommodate Topol-M missiles in them in the future.

The command post for the Republic of Kazakhstan was created at TsKBTM under the leadership of A. Leontenkov. It is a further development of the mine-type gearbox and has some differences from its predecessors. The CP uses new-generation equipment and other means with increased protection against the damaging factors of a nuclear explosion and improved characteristics information channels. All components of the KP are manufactured by Russian enterprises, before that up to a quarter of the equipment was produced in Ukraine, Belarus, Latvia, etc. The main equipment for the stationary KP RK Topol-M was designed and manufactured at the Federal State Unitary Enterprise State Obukhovsky Plant (General Director A.F. .Vashchenko, chief designer N.F. Ilyushikhin).

Fire tests of the Topol-M ICBM marching solid propellant rocket engines were carried out at the Central Research Institute Geodesy. Its flight tests of the missile began with a successful launch from a silo launcher at the Plesetsk test site on December 20, 1994. In the future, until September 26, 2000, 10 more test launches of the Topol-M missiles of the stationary complex were carried out. The second launch was made in September 1995, the third on July 25, 1996. The fourth launch of the upgraded Topol-M ICBM was successfully completed on July 8, 1997 from the Plesetsk training ground. Only the fifth launch, performed on October 22, 1998, turned out to be an emergency due to the erroneous operation of an emergency detonation system not installed on a combat missile, which interrupted the flight of a completely serviceable missile. All test launches were made from the Yuzhnaya launch pad from the silo. For further testing, a second launch pad, Svetlaya, was built to accommodate the silo launcher of the Topol-M complex. Chairman State Commission Deputy Commander of the Strategic Missile Forces, Colonel-General V.A. Nikitin. On December 8, 1998, the sixth test launch of the Topol-M rocket was made from the Plesetsk test site, during which the high reliability of the equipment was shown. The seventh launch took place on June 3, 1999, it was successful. On September 3, 1999, the eighth launch of the ICBM was carried out, during which the warhead reached the Kura test site in Kamchatka in 23 minutes, then on December 14, 1999.
In 1999, according to the KBSM project (Chief Designer V.D. Guskov), the creation of an experimental combat launch position 15P765-18E was completed at the Yubileinaya site of the Plesetsk cosmodrome using equipment dismantled in accordance with the START-2 Treaty from ICBM silos R-36M. On February 9 and August 26, 2000 (on a target in the Kamchatka region), two successful launches of the Topol-M rocket took place from this silo. Successfully carried out regular test launches of Topol-M confirmed the main flight specifications rockets.

Even before the end of the tests of the Republic of Kazakhstan, on December 24, 1997, in the Taman missile division near Tatishchevo (Saratov region), two silos with Topol-M missiles (one of them is training) took up combat duty, and on December 27, 1998 The head 104th missile regiment (commander Yu. Petrovsky) was put on combat duty with 10 Topol-M ICBMs in converted high-security silo launchers removed from duty by UR-100N ICBMs. All missile infrastructure upgrades under new complex It is carried out using resource-saving technology and is much cheaper compared to having to rebuild missile silos, command posts and control systems. The launchers cost a minimum of construction and installation work, since neither the depth nor the diameter of the mines changed. At the command post, only the container itself with the equipment, manufactured at the Federal State Unitary Enterprise State Obukhovsky Plant, was replaced. All this, according to the head of the operational department of the Main Staff of the Strategic Missile Forces, Major General S. Ponomarev, made it possible to save 18.5 million rubles on each missile silo, and a complete re-equipment of the silos for a new missile will bring savings of 3.38 billion, stretched for several years. In addition to missile silos and stationary command posts, access roads were modernized in the regiment, new cable networks for power supply and communications were laid, and the control system was modernized. Residential and educational complexes for duty combat shifts were built.

During 1999, several combat training launches of the Topol-M ICBMs were successfully carried out by combat crews of the Strategic Missile Forces from these silo launchers from the Plesetsk training ground. These launches were carried out in order to accumulate statistical data on the performance characteristics, the operation of all ICBM systems in flight, and the accuracy of the execution of the given programs. Successful launches allowed the State Commission for Flight Testing of the Topol-M rocket to recommend on April 25, 2000 the adoption of a new stationary-based missile system, and on July 13, 2000, by Decree of the President of the Russian Federation No. 1314 the Topol-M complex in the mine version was adopted by the Strategic Missile Forces. This Decree opened the way for a new stage in the development of the Strategic Missile Forces. On December 26, 2000, the third regiment of the Topol-M complex, mine-based, took up combat duty.
According to the initial plans, the rate of commissioning of new complexes after 2000 could amount to 40-50 launchers (4-5 missile regiments) per year. But according to the adjusted plans and the real allocated funds, the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation was supposed to put into service one regiment - ten missiles every year, however, due to financial problems, they were able to purchase no more than six vehicles a year. And in 2001-2002 there were no such purchases at all. As General Designer Yu.S. Solomonov stated: “For 2004, the volume of state investments for the manufacture of our Topol-M was almost halved without any discussion and agreement with us, although it was us who were entrusted with this work by the President of Russia. » In 2005, instead of six Topol-M missiles, only four were put into service. From 1997 until the end of 2006, the Strategic Missile Forces received 42 Topol-M complexes. According to the approved state armaments program for 2007-2015. 50 Topol-M strategic missile systems will be purchased for the Strategic Missile Forces. The creation of the Topol-M ICBM from the preliminary design to the first pilot launch cost 142.8 billion rubles (in 1992 prices).

At the beginning of 2010, 5 missile regiments of the division were re-equipped with the fifth-generation Topol-M missile system of a stationary (mine) base - in 1998, 1999, 2000, 2003 and 2005.
Since 2010, the Tatishchevo missile formation has been working on re-equipping the next, sixth missile regiment with the Topol-M missile system. Until the end of 2012, this regiment was brought to full staff. After the re-equipment of this regiment was completed, the program for equipping the Strategic Missile Forces with the Topol-M missile system was completed.
As has been repeatedly noted in the Russian media, when the US withdraws from the ABM Treaty, within the framework of the state defense order, plans are being discussed to install three individually targetable warheads at the Topol-M complex. So far, this is prohibited by the START-1 treaty, but on December 5, 2009, this document expires, which opens up the possibility for Moscow to equip Topol-M with multiply charged warheads.
