Second RS-24 regiment begins combat duty

The Rocket Forces reported that the second regiment of RS-24 Yars missiles began combat duty at the Teykovo division (the first one with 9 RS-24 missiles assumed combat duty in August 2011). The regiment is not complete yet - at this point it includes 6 missiles, even though the Rocket Forces promised a few days ago that they will bring the number of deployed RS-24 to 18.
