* Uses US/NATO missile designations. SS-18 (RS-20 V), SS-19 (RS-18), SS-25 (Topol), SS-27 Mod 1 (Topol-M), SS-27 Mod 2 (RS-24).
- Described by the Russian Ministry of Defense as Yars-S.
- It is possible that the 175th Missile Regiment (51.2708, 60.2992) is also active, but it is not thought to be armed. The unit is a potential candidate for the second SS-19 Mod 4 regiment.
- The first full regiment with six silos was completed in late-2021, although some construction is still visible. The upgrade of a second reg- iment has begun for a total of 12 silos (two regiments) to be operational by 2027.
- It is possible that one or two SS-19 regiments are active, but they are not thought to be armed. They are potential candidates for an upgrade to the SS-19 Mod 4 (Avangard) in the future.
- The 62nd MD at Uzhur is scheduled to receive the SS-29 (Sarmat) in the near future. Some former SS-18 silos will also be converted to the SS-19 Mod 4 (Avangard).
- Since 2019, “preparatory work” has been underway to upgrade this division to SS-27 Mod 2 (RS-24).
- It is potentially possible that the 290th regiment will move south to the new garrison (56.5658, 48.4515) that is nearly completed closer to the supply base and other garrisons of the division.
- The 779 MR garrison is being rebuilt. Until completion, the launch- ers and support vehicles are temporarily based near the supply base (56.5587, 48.0558).
- Upgrading regiments sometimes go on experimental combat alert with only a few launchers ready.
- A 12th division at Yurya has one SS-25 regiment that does not carry warheads but serves as a back-up ICBM launch code transmitter.
