Russia will resume testing the troubled Bulava missile next week, a defense industry source told RIA Novosti.

The tests are reportedly planned between Sept. 9 and Sept. 12.

The last Bulava test launch failed on Dec. 9, 2009, due to a defective engine nozzle.

Should this launch succeed, three more tests will be held this year, the source said.
