Forty Years Passed since the First Successful Interception of a Ballistic Missile

    Not long before the first flight of a human into the space there had happened one event in the Soviet Union being of nearly adequate significance. It is an event that is worth being remembered. On March 4, 1961 the first successful A system testing was conducted. A system was a complex designed to fight with ballistic missiles of a potential antagonist.

It is an event that is worth being remembered. On March 4, 1961 the first successful A system testing was conducted. A system was a complex designed to fight with ballistic missiles of a potential antagonist. The complex was developed under G.Kisunko, the Designer-in-Chief. A B-1000 anti-missile created by P.Gushchin intercepted successfully an R-12 ballistic missile launched at the firing ground of Kapustin Yar.

    On March 3, 2001 there was a ceremony devoted to the celebration of the event. The scientific and technical conference was held in Prioziorsk, the place of the Sary-Shagan proving ground heardquarters disposition. Among the participants of the conference there were Lieutenant-General Nicolai Perevozchikov (the head of the Kapustin Yar proving ground), representatives of the military industry complex, officers and veterans taking part in anti-missile trials. Major-General Vilor Matlashov, the head of the Sary-Shagan proving ground, mentioned that the successful trials conducted 40 years ago allowed the military system development of ssfully an R-12 ballistic missile launched at the firing ground of Kapustin Yar.

Major-General Vilor Matlashov, the head of the Sary-Shagan proving ground, mentioned that the successful trials conducted 40 years ago allowed the military system development of anti-missile defence to get initiated.

    The best way to tell about the event happened is citing a ciphered message sent, on the day of the trial, to the First Secretary of the Communist Party of those times, the Chairman of the Council of Ministers of the USSR N.S.Khrushchiov (the quotation is taken from "The Secret Zone: the Designer-in-Chief's Confession" by G.Kisunko, Moscow, 1996).

    Ciphered Message No..., March 4, 1961.

    Moscow Time ...H...M. Top secret. Particular significance.

    Moscow, Presidium of the Central Committee of the C.P.S.U., to Comrade Khrushchiov N.S.

    It is reported that on March 4, 1961 at Moscow time ...H...M an R-12 ballistic missile was launched in A firing ground region (the aiming point being T2). A missile launched from the Central State firing ground of the Ministry of Defence was supplied with a 500 kg dummy steel plate equivalent to a regular military missile in its weight. The purpose was to test A system experimental complex assigned for anti-missile defence. Having risen over the radiohorizon, the A system detected the target at the distance 1500 km. Using Dunai-2 radiolocator data, the central computer was constructing and refining steadily the target trajectory, was producing target directions to be transferred onto the precise pointing radiolocators. After the compiter having calculated and produced the starting turn angles and the launch moment, the B-1000 anti-missile was launched by the computer order from launching installation No.1. The anti-missile flight was proceeding in a normal way, the missile being directed on the target according to the algorithm. At the height 25 km the ground computer ordered the fighting high-explosive fragmentation part of the missile to be blown up, and the head part of the practice that the ballistic missile head part was demonstrated to have been hitted, on its flight trajectory, by anti-missile defence means. The A system trials are under way according to the schedule."
