Supreme Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces Vladimir Putin supervised a military exercise of the ground, naval, and air components of the Strategic Deterrence Forces, which included practice launches of ballistic and cruise missiles.
A Yars intercontinental ballistic missile and a Sineva ballistic missile were launched from the Plesetsk State Test Cosmodrome and a location in the Barents Sea, respectively, at the Kura Missile Test Range in the Kamchatka Peninsula. Tupolev Tu-95MS long-range aircraft were also employed in the missions, carrying out launches of air-based cruise missiles.
The event was held in order to test the level of preparedness of the military command and control echelons and the skills of senior and operational personnel in organising troop command and control.
The tasks set out during the drill of the Strategic Deterrence Forces were performed in full. All missiles reached their targets, confirming the rated characteristics.
