    Train number zero


    Russia has completed the design of a super weapon
    The draft design of the combat railway missile system (missile train) "Barguzin" ready, said Deputy defense Minister for armaments Yuri Borisov.
    Soviet missile train "well Done" at the time, was so moved by the Pentagon that the U.S. did everything possible to make our country personally destroyed them. However, the Americans themselves had a truly great disservice. Russian "Barguzin" will become elusive and very powerful defence systems for strategic purposes.

    According to sources, "RG", the creation of the missile train goes according to plan, no difficulties. It is planned that the "Barguzin" of up to 5 missile regiments by 2020 will go into service of the strategic missile forces.

    The creation of a rail-mobile missile system was a necessary measure. The US refused their construction because of the high cost and technical complexity of the project, taking the strategic nuclear forces nuclear submarines. Joint reply of the USSR could not. The West managed to cover the entire world ocean network of acoustic stations and monitored the movement of our missile-carrying submarines. Of course, the Soviet submariners went to various lengths, and sometimes our submarines with nuclear missiles suddenly appeared where they weren't expecting. But the problem of global stealth is not solved. Because the basis of our strategic missile forces remained silo launchers. Then came the moving ground systems - "Pioneers" and "Poplar". But due to their size and characteristic shape reticent to call them was still on probation. And decided to place strategic missiles on railway platforms. Americans are not particularly worried. They felt that missile systems, tied to a railway track, to track from space will be very easy. And miscalculated.

    Outwardly, especially the top rail is practically no different from cars-refrigerators. However, playing a strategic two formulations of the locomotive. So many trains pulled by two locomotives. And huge in length and branching of the railway network of the USSR was allowed to get lost trains so that no the most sophisticated satellite intelligence is not fixed. At the railroad rail is called "train zero".

    Rocket trains "well Done" with three Intercontinental ballistic missile RT-23 utth were adopted in 1987. Each carried 10 warheads. They had a unique accuracy of hitting the target, for which he received in the West the name of the Scalpel. By 1991 was deployed 3 missile division, on 4 train in each. They were stationed in the Kostroma region, Krasnoyarsk and Perm regions.

    In accordance with the start-2 Treaty Russia by 2007, all rail, except for the two that have become Museum pieces, disposed of. Although many experts have argued that start-2 this is not required. Of course, the destruction of which had no analogues in the world of the complexes did not cause enthusiasm among the military, or among experts. But confirmed wisdom: a blessing in disguise. We know today that all went well, what overseas initially had no idea. Rockets "well Done" was designed and produced in Ukraine, in Dnipropetrovsk. So if under U.S. pressure, Russia has not dismantled its missile train, they would have hung up on us a heavy burden, because the maintenance and renewal of the resource under current conditions would become impossible. The rocketeers were able to design and start to prepare for the production of complexes, which all indicators will surpass those that were created in Yuzhnoye. Especially railway infrastructure for missile trains - reinforced paths in patrol areas, pads, the base is left.

    Each missile train "Barguzin" will be armed with 6 Intercontinental ballistic missile RS-24 "YARS". It is a land of sea "Maces". When was the beginning of its creation, no one could suggest that developing a missile system for the Navy and strategic rocket forces. "Bulava" - for the Navy, and "YARS" can be based on a wheeled chassis and railway platforms. Should thank the former chief of arms of Armed forces, Colonel-General Anatoly Sitnov. He insisted that was created not just a new missile for submarines, namely the unified multi-purpose complex, capable of operating at sea and on land.

    When the Americans about it know, it was too late to close the project failed. But nevertheless, surely, designers are constantly interfered with by some external force, as work on the Bulava were very hard. Today, it is not a secret. However, the staff of the Moscow Institute of thermal technology under the leadership of then-chief designer and CEO Yury Solomonova managed the almost impossible. It seems no accident that in the spring of Yuri Semenovich was awarded the title of Hero of Labor. That will consist of a new Russian missile train? In some ways it is very similar to a nuclear submarine of strategic purpose. Only more comfortable. All the wagons are sealed and very durable - even the explosion of a nuclear warhead within a few hundred metres from the composition should not bring the complex down. Autonomy - month. During this time the crew may leave the composition is water and food enough. During the day, "Barguzin" will be able to place up to 1000 km And can stay on the "abandoned" thread in the deep forest or hide in a disused tunnel. By the way, the tactics of combat use of the new rail-mobile missile systems, is likely to be different from that followed by "well Done".

    In a combat situation the rockets are in a few minutes. The firing range of 10 thousand km, the accuracy is within 100 meters of the target. Re - maneuvering, able to overcome any of the existing missile defense systems.

    To locate the rocket train during his combat duty for technical reconnaissance means is almost impossible. For rail-mobile missile system developed by the most advanced masking tools, a powerful electronic warfare systems and advanced methods of protection from terrorists.

    this sounds for m most interesting. Armored train against RPGs or AGTMs? UAV or UCAV helos to watch terrain around against ambushes?

    With trains Russia will not have triad anymore. This is going to be nuclear quad Smile

    I think 'Yandex' translator is vastly superior (in regards to translating Russian in to English) compared to 'Google' or 'Bing' translator, though Google is probably a better pure search engine, but that's neither here nor there.

    Good news indeed. Land "submarines" with heavy ICBMs. I would make sure to dress them up like passenger trains or generic freight
    trains without any indication of a special configuration. Satellites can easily identify train cars. Uncle Sam, the verminous slime,
    will have to cover the whole Russian rail system with nuclear attacks to take out these trains. Without proper camouflage the
    targeting becomes vastly simpler.

    It will make no difference as the auto-translation is technically correct; those are the literal translations for those Russian words (albeit Molodets should really be 'good man' rather than 'well done'; it's just typically in the same context as the English expression 'well done' is).

    The trouble is that according to the infographic; the new ICBM trains will have 3 locomotives.
    This is a problem and it was a problem with the Molodets trains too; as most Russian trains of that size or even larger have only 2 locomotives.

    I believe it was discussed earlier that the new train ICBM wouldn't need a special train car this time, and could just use a standard train car. BTW the future will likely include high-speed trains, such as 'fast-rail' and 'Maglev', you could come to your own conclusions what that'll mean for train ICBM's... Wink

    Nothing, at least not for this half of the century - ICBM trains are cargo trains, not passenger trains.

    Good thing about these type of stuff is that train networks would also go through tunneling systems like through Urals and the like. So if incase of a bombing to take place, the trains could be put into mountainous regions making it ever so much harder or impossible to strike.

    I am not sure if this is about anti nuke resilience. Task is to fire own rockets before enemy´s one hit you. They need to be as much concealed as possible.

    BTW with new Silk Road and BAM2 will be helluva fun for US intelligence.

    A tunnel would be ideal but to protect a train from a nuclear blast a simple siding with raised rivetments on either side like on an airfield would be enough... 1000 x cheaper and could be put on either side of a main line and could be used to rest trains and to allow trains to pass one another if needed.

    The real problem is that a train can move 100s of kms in an hour and an ICBM takes half an hour to get to Russia so a location at launch might be totally inaccurate by the time the warhead arrives... and what if the train has an S-500 carriage attached to it...  Twisted Evil

    only danger I can see here is saboteur teams and PGSS missiles, but I am quite sure Russian military already foreseen counter measures.

    Nakidka, Kontrast or other (AFAIR there were also something similar made in Israel) is helpful in taking down PGSS missiles how ??


    Thermal camo might make the tank not glow in your thermals, but it most certainly doesn't make it invisible. The tank will always reflect (or absorb) thermal radiation different from its background which essentially makes it visible. Simplified analogy: How do you fight a tank that has camo-colored paint on it?

    video showing different applications of multi-spectral cammo Barracuda.


    as for your question, better and more diverse sensors. if you have issues spotting them on thermals turn to radars instead. however radars have problems with surface clutter, and this is all too easy to exploit by a tank's multispectral cammo to achieve radar stealth. more likely the only radars we will see on serial tanks are those of the APS and the way they track targets is by detecting and pinpointing sources of aimed fire to cue the thermals.
    once they are cued the target can be tracked and accurate fire can be done.
