Another Test Set For Troubled Bulava Missile
October 06 2010
The Russian navy says it will test-fire the Bulava missile as early as Thursday in the White Sea, RIA Novosti reports.
Trials of the missile were put on hold in December after a launch failed due to a defective engine nozzle.
The missile will be launched by the end of the week from the Dmitry Donskoy nuclear submarine, said a local official.
The Bulava has officially failed seven of 12 tests.
