    Guys how accurate is this report? Is this merely propaganda or is this a claim that we own Iskenders? They have also mentioned the typhoon...should we consider it to be the WM-80? Or could we confirm that we have AR1A?

    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.

        Thanks bro..so we cnt be sure! I know the WM-80 has a a shorter range...but they are mentioning in the report the word "typhoon" not wm-80. I recently read a report that states that Armenia has purchased AR1As which are the modernized version of WM-80. Donno the accuracy of the report though.

                Yes, I see Russia is a member of MTCR http://www.mtcr.info/english/FAQ-E.html .

                That changes my thinking somewhat.

                I wonder why did the president stress over 300 Km.

                Could it be that the Russians will have finger on the trigger?

                  That's the likely scenario. Just like the MiG-29, it's a big no-no to us. If they ever give us any of those serious toys, Azeris would be in deep crap.

                    We dont have iskander for sure at-least not yet!
                    what we do have is basically modified scud b to c/d. If you forget Armenia had many enterprises during soviet era that worked on missiles.
                    Accuracy and range have been greatly improved thanks to this. Accuracy basically CEP is based on electronics in the nose of the missile, which have been updated. Lets consider fact electronics in there for scud b is from 70's, fortunately we do have experts to modify 70's electronics to more modern version. Our Scuds can go over 300 what we the question is if we updated the high explosives in the missile .. and to what kind

                      They be finished......even just a one small squadron will bring them to their knees and Armenia will maintain air superiority over its own territory.
