Re: Nagorno-Karabagh: Military Balance Between Armenia & Azerbaijan
	
		
			
			
				
	
The statement came from the President.
The broadcast came from Armenia located news broadcast.
I would assume the news item to be accurate. (Unless there was a bluff, in which case we will never know.)
What was interesting in the President’s statement was, the referred missiles had a range of OVER 300Km.
The Iskander missile has a range of 300 Km, but he said OVER 300.
The reason, the export version of the Iskander is 300 BUT the Russian army supply version is greater than 400 Km. ( But less than 500 Km to comply with INF treaty.)
This ties in with the agreement of a year ago according to which Armenia can acquire armament same specification as the Russian forces.
PS. Another designation for the Iskander is SS-26
WM-80 has a range of 120 Km.
