The Iskander-M is a very important system for the Russian Ground Forces and is typically an army-level asset. The deployment of Iskander-M systems from Central Military District's 448th Missile Brigade in the spring of 2021 and movement in October was a key warning sign. 2/ https://t.co/8yg6c5S6GA — PolitiTweet.org

Seeing people suggest that Russia hasn't used ballistic missiles in this war but that isn't accurate. Russia used Iskander-M systems very actively in the beginning (including from Belarus), which can launch 9M723 quasi-ballistic missiles and cruise missiles, as well as Tochka-U. https://t.co/DN3bLH3etO — PolitiTweet.org

The 9M723 quasi-ballistic missile is supposed to have a unique flight trajectory in the terminal phase that makes it difficult to intercept (and it also discards decoys). It is notable if Russia is using them again, but it doesn't signal a change in Russian strategy. 3/ — PolitiTweet.org
