Russian Rocket Forces

The Russian Rocket Forces, part of Russia’s strategic military, specialize in land-based missile systems designed for nuclear and conventional strike capabilities. They operate intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) capable of reaching distant targets worldwide, as well as shorter-range missiles. Their main role is nuclear deterrence, ensuring Russia can retaliate if attacked, thus preventing enemies from considering an attack. The forces are organized into missile divisions and maintained as a key component of Russia’s strategic arsenal, integrating advanced technology for rapid, secure, and reliable deployment.
