Bulava lives!!!
And also, the project 955 Borei submarine has got to have the fastest rate of SLBM fire of all the operational strategic subs, I counted 4 missiles launched in around 25 seconds, amazing!!

Kamchatka "Boreas" are preparing for the shooting "Mace"
So there may be a Bulava launch from the Pacific fleet subs this year.
So they finally fixed targeting range in the West
Where's that local clown to tell us how Boreis are sitting in port and how Bulava doesn't work?

Bulava has a solid third stage.Big_Gazza wrote:the RSM-56 Bulava too has 3 stages; the 1st and 2nd use solid fuel, while the 3rd stage still uses a liquid fuel for high maneuverability during warhead separation.
What is special here about the rate of fire? You can fire as fast as it takes for your sub's CG to readjust after firing.owais.usmani wrote: And also, the project 955 Borei submarine has got to have the fastest rate of SLBM fire of all the operational strategic subs, I counted 4 missiles launched in around 25 seconds, amazing!!

3 ступень - РДТТ 3Д42 с прочноскрепленым зарядом смесевого топлива 5-го поколения и с раздвижным сопловым насадком. Разработка и производство сопла с насадком - НПО "Искра" (г.Пермь, бывшее СКБ-172), разработка корпуса двигателя и заряда двигателя - ФГУП ФЦДТ "Союз" (г.Дзержинский, источник). Снаряжение двигателей топливом вероятно осуществляется НПЦ "Алтай" (г.Бийск). Двигатель отделяется от ступени разведения после завершения работы. Ступень включается на 90-й секунде полета.
MOSCOW, October 9. / TASS /. Project 955A (Borey-A) strategic nuclear submarine missile cruiser "Knyaz Oleg" (code "Borey-A") will launch the Bulava intercontinental ballistic missile during state tests in November 2021. This was reported to TASS by a source in the military-industrial complex.
"Prince Oleg" within the framework of state tests will shoot "Bulava" in November from a submerged position with one missile at the Kura training ground in Kamchatka, "he said.
TASS has no official information on this matter.
On June 23, the general director of the Sevmash shipyard (part of the United Shipbuilding Corporation) Mikhail Budnichenko told TASS that the submarine will perform state tests in the second half of 2021 and will be transferred to the fleet at the end of the year. Answering the question whether the Bulava ICBM will be launched during the state tests, he said that Prince Oleg will carry out everything that is planned by the program. "
Earlier, TASS reported that "Prince Oleg" first went to sea for testing on May 30, and in mid-June he returned to the base.
Now the Russian Navy has four Project 955 / 955A missile carriers. In addition to "Prince Oleg", three more submarines of project 955A are at Sevmash in different stages of construction. Each of the Project 955 / 955A submarines carries 16 Bulava ICBMs.

MOSCOW, October 21 - RIA Novosti. Nuclear submarine of project 955-A "Borey-A" "Knyaz Oleg" performed the launch of a ballistic missile "Bulava" in the White Sea , the Defense Ministry said.
"The strategic missile submarine Knyaz Oleg, as part of the state test program, fired a Bulava ballistic missile from the White Sea. The ballistic missile was launched from a submerged position at the Kura training ground in Kamchatka," the ministry said in a release.
They clarified that, "according to the confirmed data of objective control, the missile warheads have successfully arrived in the specified area at the estimated time."
The Knyaz Oleg nuclear submarine is planned to be transferred to the combat strength of the Russian Navy by the end of the year. The submarine will become the fifth submarine of this class in the Navy: three submarines of the base project 955 Borey and the lead submarine of the improved 955A are already in combat.
The Borey-class strategic missile submarine cruisers were designed at the Rubin Central Design Bureau for Marine Engineering in St. Petersburg. During their construction, new achievements were applied in the creation of shipborne radio-electronic equipment, noise reduction. The Bulava serves as their main weapon.

Vilyuchinsk (Kamchatka). 27th October. Interfax - Russian intercontinental ballistic missiles R-30 Bulava are invulnerable to any anti-missile defense system, says Rear Admiral Arkady Navarsky, chief of staff of the Pacific Fleet's submarine forces. "[b]The main advantages of the Bulava are ease of maintenance and the ability to maneuver in the acceleration section, which makes the missile invulnerable to any missile defense system[/b]," Navarsky told reporters on Wednesday. The R-30 Bulava solid-propellant intercontinental ballistic missiles are carried by Project 955 Borey strategic submarine cruisers. In December 2020, the Vladimir Monomakh missile submarine of the Pacific Fleet performed a salvo launch of four Bulava missiles. In addition, on October 21, the Knyaz Oleg missile submarine fired a Bulava ballistic missile from the White Sea at the Kura training ground in Kamchatka as part of the state test program. wrote:

Even older ICBM and SLBM missiles could perform maneuvers in the engine phase, so where there is any novelty, it is normal for most ballistic missiles.

There is a difference3 between a missile correcting it's course and a missile taking an unpredictable path to the target.
In order for for an SLBM to do this it needs both excellent maneuverability and excess range. This also explains that Bulava's underwhelming payload, an unfortunate necessity to gaurantee that the warheads make it to their destination safely.
