    Not really... Clearly what they've done for the past few missiles has worked, though more testing is always welcome.

    Russia to conduct several Bulava launches by end of 2015

    The source did not mention which Borey-class submarine would conduct the upcoming launches
    Bulava ballistic missile

    ST. PETERSBURG, July 1. /TASS/. Russia will conduct several launches of Bulava ballistic missiles by the end of this year, a source at the Navy's general staff told TASS on Wednesday.

    "Several launches are being planned by the end of the year," the source said.

    He did not mention which Borey-class submarine would conduct the upcoming launches.

    The Borey-class ballistic-missile submarines are to become the backbone of the Russian Navy's strategic nuclear deterrent for the next few decades. Eight such submarines are expected to be built up to 2020, and three of them have been already handed over to the Navy. The vessels will be armed with up to 16 Bulava submarine-launched ballistic missiles, which have range of over 8,000 kilometers.

    The previous Bulava launch was conducted in late November 2014 from the Alexander Nevsky Borey-class submarine.

    Russian nuclear sub to launch two Bulava missiles in November — source

    The missiles will be launched from a submerged position from the Barents Sea towards the Kura test site in the Kamchatka Peninsula

    MOSCOW, September 9. /TASS/. Russia’s Vladimir Monomakh Borei class nuclear-powered submarine will carry out a salvo launch of two Bulava intercontinental ballistic missiles, a source at the General Staff has told TASS.

    "According to the existing plans, the second serially-built Borei sub, the Vladimir Monomakh, will carry out a salvo launch of two Bulava missiles in November this year. The missiles will be launched from a submerged position from the Barents Sea towards the Kura test site in the Kamchatka Peninsula," the source said.

    Only two missiles will be on board the submarine at the moment.

    "At the moment of the previous Bulava launch from The Yuri Dolgoruky the submarine carried the full set of sixteen missiles. The Vladimir Monomakh will not," the official said.

    The Bulava missiles’ twin launch will be the last test of the new submarine before it enters duty as part of the combat-ready naval force.

    "If the launches are successful, if the submarine’s equipment performs well even though missiles may have hypothetical problems in flight, the submarine will go operational. This may happen in December," the source said, adding that no more launches of Bulava were on this year’s timetable.

    The Vladimir Monomakh is a third strategic nuclear-powered submarine of project 955 Borei. It was expected that the Vladimir Monomakh would make a voyage to the Pacific Fleet base in the Kamchatka Peninsula alongside its twin, The Aleksandr Nevsky. In the end only one submarine left for its destination. It is expected to be there in the second half of this month. Its first combat duty mission is due to begin in October.

    artjomh, in case satellite guidance is not available to a Bulava, Topol, Trident or any other ICBM/SLBM, can they still home in on their target?

    Of course. Ballistic missiles primarily use inertial navigation with astrocorrection. Satellites are backup.

    artjomh, I had 2 questions about the Bulava:

    1. Why does the first 2 stage uses solid fuel and the third stage liquid fuel? In other words, why not have solid fuel for the third stage as well?

    2. The CEP of the Bulava is stated to be 350m. Isn't that a bit too high?

    Thank You

    Don't listen to stupid people, jhelb. Bulava has 3 solid-fuel stages.

    Bulava has a smallest trow weight then other SLBM. Only about 1150 kg. Comparing Sineva has 2800 kg similary Trident II. Triden I has about 1500 kg. M-51 has about 2000 kg ?. This missile can carry more heavier warhead and decoy, anti ABM systems.

    the final stage for incertion of individual multiple reentry warheads is liquid fueled cince it needs multiple fireings.

    Bulava is made and designed just to evade western abm shields.

    Not necessarily.

    R-36M had a solid-fuel warhead bus. Same with RSD-10. You are not absolutely required to have a liquid-fuelled PBV on a MIRV'd missile.
