Description

The Iskander-1000 is a new short-range tactical ballistic missile capable of delivering a 300-350 kilograms high explosive (HE) warhead to a distance of up to 1,000 kilometers. The Iskander-1000 features 10-15 percent of increased solid propellant load achieving a top speed of 3,100 meters per second (Mach 9+) and a top altitude of 120-130 kilometers. The missile uses a combination of the inertial navigation system (INS) and satellite navigation (GLONASS) to strike a given target within a Circular Error Probable (CEP) of a few meters. The weapon engages the target by nosediving 90-degree at speeds of 1,400-1,900 meters per second while maneuvering at 25-30-g. The Russian Army could deploy the new Iskander-1000 using existing Iskander MZKT missile system wheeled platforms in 2025 or 2026. The Iskander-1000 is expected to strike targets at distances between 200 and 1,000 kilometers within 2-to-7 minutes giving very little time to the enemy’s air defenses to counter the attack.
