Russian troops struck a residential building in Kharkiv overnight on March 7 with the newest secret missile, Izdeliye-30, according to the Kharkiv Regional Prosecutor’s Office.
Tonight, a Russian missile hit a five-story residential building in the Kyivskyi district of Kharkiv. As a result of the attack, an entrance section from the first to the fifth floor was destroyed.
Seven people are known to have been killed, including two children. More than 10 people were injured, including three children.
People remain trapped under the rubble. A search and rescue operation is ongoing.
According to preliminary information, Russian troops struck the building with an Izdeliye-30 missile.
Under the procedural guidance of the Kharkiv Regional Prosecutor’s Office, a pre-trial investigation has been launched into a war crime that caused the deaths of people (Part 2 of Article 438 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine).
About the Izdeliye-30 missile
Earlier, Ukraine’s military intelligence disclosed the characteristics and showed images of the newest Izdeliye-30 missile, which Russia can use to attack the entire territory of Ukraine.
The missile has a wingspan of about three meters, a warhead weighing 800 kilograms, and a range of at least 1,500 kilometers. The first cases of the new missile being used against Ukraine were recorded at the end of last year.
Based on the markings and design features, the product was identified as a development of the Zvezda Design Bureau, which is part of the Tactical Missiles Corporation.
Certain technical solutions are unified with other products of this developer and the corporation in general.
For example, the installed pyrotechnic valve of the pneumatic system is identical to elements of the Kh-35U missile, while the aviation ejection device is similar to the AKU-5M systems used on missiles such as the Kh-101, Kh-55, and Kh-555.
The satellite navigation system, possibly for the first time for Russian cruise missiles, is represented by a combination of products from two different Russian companies — the Kometa-M12 satellite signal receiver with a digital antenna array and a receiving and computing unit produced by KB Navis, created on the basis of the NAVIS NR9 receiver.
For their integration, an interface unit produced by ANPP Temp-Avia is used, known for manufacturing flight controllers for guided aerial bombs. All three components of the navigation system contain parts from manufacturers in the United States, Switzerland, China, and the Netherlands.
A separate electronic control unit for the warhead, BUBS-30, is built on a Russian component base. Its key component is a 32-bit ARM architecture microcontroller 1986VE1AT produced by PKK Milandr.
