YEM - Vulkán-1
Volcano-1 / Burkan-1
In September 2016, Yemeni rebels unveiled the Burkan-1 ballistic missile with a claimed range of 800 km. It is believed to be a modification of the R-17/R-300 missiles that have been in the rebel forces' arsenal since the beginning of the insurgency.
According to Yemen's SABA agency, the missile has a diameter of 880 mm, a length of 12,500 mm, a total weight of 8,000 kg and a warhead weighing 500 kg.
The first combat use of the new missile was carried out as early as 02.09.2016 in the evening, when several missiles were fired at targets in Saudi Arabia. This was followed by an attack on 09.10.2016 when the King Fahd Airbase near Al-Taif, about 525 km from the Yemeni border, was the target of a missile attack. The attack was also confirmed from Saudi Arabia, which said that the missile was destroyed in the air by air defences.
Another confirmed combat deployment is dated 27 October 2016, when the target was supposed to be Airbase in Jeddah (about 630 km from the border).
According to Saudi sources, one of the missiles was also destroyed about 65 km from the city of Mecca, which was immediately used by propaganda as a demonstration that the insurgents were attacking sacred symbols of Islam. The insurgents indicate that the target of the attack was a military airfield near Mecca, from where C-130 transport aircraft operating to supply coalition forces in Yemen operate.
It is not clear from the published data whether the original o.z. was used as the launcher. 9K72 Elbrus, or a makeshift launcher using the chassis of an all-terrain vehicle as in the case of the Qahir-1 ballistic missiles is used.
