Apparently Bastion's P-800 Onyx was launched with a unique flight pattern, a teracom-like near terrain flight that eventually hit a naval target.
"A special feature of this fire was the fact that we have complicated the job of flight of the rocket. In other words, we gave the winged projectile a trajectory along which it should safely pass through all the folds of the terrain and go on a direct bearing on the target," Ivan Prokhorov explained.

Idk if it was shared already. They propose this system called Rubezh which is a mini-Bal system that can work totally alone. 150km range in active mode and 450km in passive mode.

I guess it's only for export since they have the Bal system with better raadars and more missiles.
With the modern kh-35U instead of kh-35 they could use it as a ground to ground cruise missile system. Countries like Syria, Egypt or north korea would be happy to have it.
Any order until now ?

They use a range of ground based anti ship missiles... and now there is no range restriction like there was in the past with the INF treaty...
Now there is just the missile export treaty restricting exported missiles to 300km or less and 500kg warhead or less...

Kh-35U with 260km range can cover pretty much all Israel from Stria or Egypt.
In many cases you don't need something like a kalibr with 2500km range or hypersonic missiles.

A new Coastal Rocket Artillery brigade to be formed in the Sakhalin region with Bal and Bastion units. In addition another Bastion unit is on order for the Crimea and a Bal unit for St Petersburg.
