UR-100N
UR-100N ICBM UR-100N ICBM Versions Credit: © Mark Wade |
Russian intercontinental ballistic missile. The UR-100N was designed as a replacement for the UR-100 at the end of its ten year storage life. Although it could be installed in the same silos, it was 50% heavier. The competing design of Yangel, the MR-UR-100, was also put into production when the Soviet hierarchy deadlocked and could not pick one design over the other.
AKA: 15A30;15P030;Rokot;RS-18A;SS-19 Mod 1 and Mod 2;Stilleto. Status: Active. First Launch: 1972-01-01. Last Launch: 1984-01-01. Number: 73 . Payload: 4,350 kg (9,590 lb). Thrust: 2,038.00 kN (458,160 lbf). Gross mass: 105,600 kg (232,800 lb). Height: 24.00 m (78.00 ft). Diameter: 2.50 m (8.20 ft). Span: 2.50 m (8.20 ft). Apogee: 1,000 km (600 mi).
Chief Designer Vladimir Chelomei began development of the UR-100N in 1967 as a replacement for his UR-100, the most widely deployed Soviet ICBM. He conceived of a modernized 8K84M capable of launching six independently-targeted nuclear warheads. Chief Designer Yangel at KB Yuzhnoye was promoting an alternate UR-100 replacement, his MR-UR-100. The competition between the two chief designers led to a drama universally remarked upon in memoirs of Soviet rocketeers. Both design bureaus had powerful supporters in the Soviet leadership, and no consensus could be reached as to which missile to put into production. Chelomei was supported by leadership figures Grechko, Afanasyev, and designers Sergeyev, Barmin, Baryshev and V Kuznetsov. The Yuzhnoye design was supported by Central Committee Secretary Ustinov, head of the VPK Military-Industrial Commission Smirnov, Mozhorin, Tyulin, and designers Glushko, and Pilyugin.
Keldysh headed an expert commission to select a design, but the split within the technical community resulted in a deadlock. Premier Brezhnev finally made the Solomonic but extremely expensive decision at a leadership meeting at Stalin's old dacha at Yalta -- both would be built and deployed.
Decrees authorizing full development of the missile and silo were issued on 2 September 1969 and 19 August 1970. The missile was to feature a maneuverable post-boost bus for dispensing of warheads and countermeasures on different trajectories; a digital guidance system by V Sergeyev at NII-692; and shock mounting of the missile in the silo to improve survivability and the allow it to ride out an enemy counter-force nuclear attack. The rocket itself was increased in diameter to 2.41 m. The second stage engine was completely 'submerged' in the fuel tank, to allow the maximum missile mass to be packed into the existing UR-100 silos. This nearly tripled payload compared to the original UR-100. Baryshev at TsKBM Filial 2 designed the silo modifications. The new universal missile command point was designed by Krivoshein and Aksyutin at TsKB TM. The miniature nuclear warheads were the product of NII-1011 at Chelyabinsk-70.
Test flights began on 9 April 1973 at Baikonur. The last of 27 test launches were completed in October 1975. During the series tests were made with 1, 4, and 6 warhead configurations. The first regiment became active with the missile at Pervomaisk on 26 April 1975. The missile was formally accepted by the military on 30 December 1975. The first regiment with improved 'super-hardened' silos, able to resist overpressures of up to 450 atmospheres, became operational at Tatischevo on 18 December 1976. By 1979 240 missiles had been deployed. The INS, based on that developed for the R-36M by NPO Kharton, provided an 0.26 km CEP.
In service the missiles received a minor inspection and preventive maintenance visit every three months. A major inspection and maintenance is conducted every three years. The UR-100N was launched a total of 67 times by the year 2000. These included regular service launches to verify the missile's guaranteed life. In November 1994 a missile was launched successfully after 18 years in its storage container. A 10 June 1997 a twenty-year old missile, moved in its container from a silo in Kozelsk, was launched from Baikonur, followed by a 22 year old missile on 7 October 1998. These tests resulted in the missile being certified for 25 years life in 1999, which would allow field use of the UR-100N to 2010. There was every expectation that this could be extended to 30 years.
With the collapse of the Soviet Union, 130 UR-100N's at Khmelnitskiy and Pervomaisk had their warheads removed. The rockets themselves were returned to Russia between 29 August 1996 and February 1999. By September 1998 120 of the Ukrainian silos had been destroyed. The missile remained in service in 160 silos in Kozelsk (70) and Tatishchevo (90).

| UR-100NU 15A35 Russian intercontinental ballistic missile. Development of an improved version of the UR-100N was authorized on 16 April 1976 (UR-100NU; U = UTTKh = 'Improved Technical-Tactical Characteristics). Viktor Bugaisk at TsKBM headed the engineering team. The UR-100NU was to have a new warhead dispenser bus and improved guidance system by Vladimir Sergeyev of NII-692. The new system allowed up to six pre-programmed targets to be entered, any one of which could be selected at launch. This allowed deployment of better countermeasures and a considerable improvement in accuracy. |

First Rokot flight from Plesetsk, using a launch pad originally used for Kosmos rockets. The two-stage modified UR-100NUTTKh ICBM, delivered a Briz-KM upper stage to a suborbital trajectory. The first Briz burn was to an approximately 200 x 550 km transfer orbit; the second burn circularized at apogee. It placed two 660 kg dummy satellites in orbits similar to the parking orbit was used for the defunct Iridium program. The Briz-KM stage then made a third burn to lower its perigee to a 178 x 556 km x 86.4 deg disposal orbit.

First commercial flight of Rokot booster. Launch delayed from November 23-30, 2001, February 27, March 15 and 16. The Briz-KM upper stage ignited 5 minutes after launch and after a ten minute burn reached a 300 x 500 km orbit at about 0936 UTC. A second burn at 1042 UTC placed the satellites in a 483 x 506 km x 89 deg orbit; the two GRACE gravimetric satellites separated from the dispenser at 1047 UTC. A third Briz burn then lowered the rocket stage orbit to 146 x 487 km x 89 deg so that it would reenter quickly.

Additional military payload carried on a Gonets launch, evidently to prove orbital rendezvous or anti-satellite technology. For the first time, this payload was ejected from the Briz-KM upper stage after its depletion burn, and ended up in a lower perigee orbit than the Gonets trio. The payload began small orbit maneuvers on 9 April. On 14 April it completed a rendezvous with its Briz-KM rocket stage and appeared to have deliberately or accidentally hit the stage. It made a major orbit change on 3 July around 07:10 GMT, from its 1172 km x 1506 km orbit to a lower 1119 km x 1451 km orbit.

Eurockot/Krunichev Rokot's Briz-KM upper stage entered a 153 x 785 km transfer orbit followed by an 802 x 806 km target orbit, deploying the Sentinel-3A satellite. It then lowered perigee to 411 x 744 km to reduce orbital lifetime. ESA's Sentinel-3A was part of the European Union's Copernicus remote
sensing program, and carried an ocean color imaging payload and an ocean-topography radar altimeter payload.
