According to the publication's informant, the Ambal road-rail ferry is used for transportation.
In a commentary to Eesti Rahvusringhääling, Estonian Defense Minister Hannes Hanso neither confirmed nor denied the transportation of the Iskander.
“It is true that we have reason to be very vigilant - both in the air and at sea, and in all other places,” the minister said. “I can’t rule it out, I can say that,” he added.
The Iskander operational-tactical missile system was adopted by the Russian army in 2006. It is designed to hit targets with great accuracy at a range of 50 to 500 km.
This missile system allows Russia to hit almost all important strategic objects (airfields, ports, railway junctions, control centers, etc.) from Southern Poland to Central Finland from Kaliningrad.
