SS-N-22

(Redirected from SS-N-22 Sunburn)

SS-N-22 Sunburn is the NATO reporting name for two unrelated Soviet anti-ship missiles. While the missiles were very different, the ship-mounted launching containers were identical, creating the confusion, which was then exacerbated by the Soviet practice of mixing the types within any particular class of ships. Suspicions were recorded, but it was not confirmed that "SS-N-22" actually referred to two different missiles until after the fall of the Soviet Union.

One of the SS-N-22s was the Chelomei's P-80 Zubr . It was rocket-propelled, armed with a 250-kilogram warhead, and was carried by early-model Sovremennyi-class destroyers and Tarantul-class corvettes. The submarine-launched version of this missile, also known to NATO as SS-N-22 Sunburn, was designated the P-100 Oniks .

The other, unrelated SS-N-22 was the Raduga P-270 Moskit . It was ramjet-propelled (though launched by a small solid-fuel rocket), armed with a 300-kilogram warhead, and was carried by later-model Sovremennyy-class destroyers, Tarantul-class corvettes, and several smaller warships.
