Work on creation of ballistic long-range missiles continued at OKB-1 and, as a result of goal-oriented studies and experiments, the first strategic missile, the R-5, appeared.

The Aegis BMD system fired a Standard Missile using real-time information from a remote sensor prior to the shipboard SPY-1 radar acquiring the inbound ballistic missile.
