RS-12M2 Topol-M
Model: RS-12M2
The RS-12M2 Topol-M is a single-warhead intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) that marked a significant development in Russia's strategic arsenal after the dissolution of the Soviet Union. With a range of approximately 11,000 km, it is equipped with advanced countermeasures to bypass missile defenses. The Topol-M is known for its mobility and quick deployment capability, ensuring a robust second-strike deterrent. Operational since the late 1990s, it remains a key component of Russia's nuclear forces, although it is being gradually replaced by the RS-24 Yars system.
