Deployment of RS-26 Rubezh reportedly postponed until 2017

Russian press quotes a source in the defense ministry as saying that deployment of the RS-26 Rubezh missile is postponed until 2017.

The delay has been expected - the deployment date has already been moved several times, even though the missile was declared to be ready.
