Russian tests new ballistic missile

MOSCOW, June 6 (AFP) – 14:42 GMT – Russia launched a successful test Thursday of its new intercontinental ballistic missile Topol-M, which is set to replace Moscow’s current arsenal of SS-18 missiles, the Interfax-AVN agency reported.
The Topol-M, the equivalent of the US Minuteman-3, hit its target in Russia’s far-east more than 7000 kilometers (around 4,000 miles) from its launch in the northwest of the country.

Russia and the United States signed a strategic arms reduction treaty at the end of May which is set to reduce the arsenals of the two countries by two-thirds over a period of 10 years.
