Iskander-1,000": A missile against which the AFU has no protection.
The redesigned 9M723-2 missile, unofficially dubbed "Iskander-1,000", has significantly increased its strike radius thanks to a new engine and fuel. It can now reach deep rear targets, logistics hubs and airports.
Its main advantage remains: a quasi-ballistic trajectory with constant changes in altitude and direction, plus high G-forces. This makes interception by systems like Patriot very difficult. The missile is maneuvered to the last minute, using fuses and EW.
The half-ton warhead, capable of penetrating concrete, is guided by optical imagery precisely to within a few meters. The appearance of the "Iskander-1000" demonstrates the improvement of Russia's military-industrial complex in the creation of high-precision weapons that change the operational depth and reduce safe zones for the enemy.
