Russia’s Strategic Missile Forces to get 4G control systems

Russia’s Strategic Missile Forces will receive advanced automated command-and-control systems, SMF chief Lt. Gen. Sergei Karakayev said on Friday.

New, “fourth-generation systems” will start to be deployed next year at command posts and fixed-site and road-mobile missile complexes, he said.

The system is designed to ensure effective control of new-generation nuclear weapons.

At the moment one SMF army and two SMF divisions are preparing to use the new system, the general said.
