Director General of Roscosmos Dmitry Rogozin said that the first regiment armed with Sarmat intercontinental ballistic missiles is planned to be formed in the Krasnoyarsk Territory in the fall.

According to the head of Roskosmos, “Sarmat” will use the same mines as “Voevoda”. “The land mines are the same as those of the Voyevoda, they do not need to be redone. A certain refinement of only electronics is underway “he said, emphasizing that it would save money and time to adopt the system.
The first launch of the intercontinental ballistic missile “Sarmat” was carried out from the Plesetsk cosmodrome in the Arkhangelsk region on Wednesday. Training warheads arrived in a given area at the Kura training ground in Kamchatka. At the moment, the Uzhur missile formation in the Krasnoyarsk Territory is preparing the head missile regiment for re-equipment with a new missile system.
