👉 The CB-3 (CBS) missiles were a series of medium-range ballistic missiles developed and produced by the Soviet Union during the Cold War. These missiles featured a unique design with a cylindrical warhead that could be launched from a variety of platforms, including land-based mobile launchers and submarine-launched tubes. The CB-3 missile had a range of approximately 500 to 600 kilometers and was capable of carrying up to 1,000 kilograms of warhead. It employed a two-stage design, with the first stage providing initial propulsion and the second stage delivering the warhead. The missile's guidance system was relatively simple, relying on a combination of inertial navigation and a dead reckoning mechanism. The CB-3 was primarily used for strategic deterrence, targeting key military and industrial sites in the United States and Western Europe, playing a crucial role in the Soviet Union's nuclear arsenal.
