Serpukhov Military Institute of the Strategic Missile Forces. Unfair selection to the Strategic Missile Forces Academy (branch

History of the university

The Serpukhov Military Institute of Missile Forces dates back to September 19, 1940, when, by Order of the People's Commissar of Defense of the USSR No. 0323, separate schools for Air Force specialties were allocated from the 1st Moscow Red Banner Military Aviation Technical School of Communications. One of these schools, located in the city of Tushino, Moscow region, by order of the USSR NKO No. 049 dated February 5, 1941, received the name of the 2nd Moscow Military Aviation School of Mechanics of the Air Force Special Services and served as the beginning of the formation of our institute.

With the outbreak of the Great Patriotic War in October 1941, the school was evacuated to the city of Abdulino, Chkalov Region, for further training of personnel. On March 7, 1943, the aircraft mechanics school returned to Tushino, Moscow Region. In October 1943, the State Defense Committee of the USSR decided to transfer the school from Tushino to the city of Serpukhov, Moscow Region.

On August 18, 1944, the school was awarded the Red Banner and the Certificate of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR for eternal storage.

In the period from 1946 to 1948, a transition was made to the training of mechanics on special equipment for jet aircraft combat vehicles - this is a step towards the training of future rocket specialists.

By Directive of the General Staff of the USSR Armed Forces No. ORG/5/96511 dated December 23, 1948, the 2nd Moscow Military Aviation School of Air Force Special Services aircraft mechanics was transformed into the Serpukhov Military Aviation Technical School of the USSR Air Force Special Services, which began to train technical officers.

On March 15, 1960, the Serpukhov School was included in the Strategic Missile Forces.

By order of the USSR Minister of Defense No. 0027 dated March 10, 1962, the Serpukhov Military Aviation Technical School of the USSR Air Force Special Services was transformed into the Serpukhov Higher Military Command and Engineering School, consisting of two faculties. In 1972, the third faculty was opened, and in 1977, the fourth.

By order of the USSR Minister of Defense No. 0143 of June 13, 1983, the Serpukhov Higher Military Command and Engineering School was renamed the Serpukhov Higher Military Command and Engineering School of Missile Forces named after the Lenin Komsomol.

The basic missile system for study in the 80s was “Pioneer” (RSD-10), at the end of the 80s - “Topol” (RS-12M), and in the 90s also “Topol-M” ( RS-12M2).

By Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 1009 of August 29, 1998 and in accordance with Order of the Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation No. 417 of September 16, 1998, the Serpukhov Higher Military Command and Engineering School of Missile Forces named after the Lenin Komsomol was transformed into the Serpukhov Military Institute of Missile Forces.

The Military Institute, as the leading higher military educational institution of the Strategic Missile Forces, made a significant contribution to the development of the military art of the Strategic Missile Forces - the tactics of units and subunits armed with the PGRK. At the departments of the military institute, together with the country's leading military scientists, the main provisions of the tactics of maneuverable actions of units and subunits armed with PGRK, and methods of their combat use were developed. The scientific and pedagogical school of the military institute has become a recognized leader in the formation and development of the tactics of the Missile Forces - an integral part of the tactics of the Russian Armed Forces, covering the theory and practice of preparing and conducting deterrent and combat operations by units and subunits of the Strategic Missile Forces. Scientists from the military institute made a significant contribution to the development of the theory of combat training and operation of missile weapons.

Institute structure

A distinctive feature of a military institute today is the presence of two components in its educational activities: command and engineering. Their mutual influence provides departments and faculties with an effective educational process and fruitful research work.

The institute includes:

  • Faculty No. 1 “Rocket launch and technical complexes”

The faculty was created in 1962. Initially, it was called Faculty No. 1 “Combat use of missiles and operation of engines and ground mechanical equipment.” In 1965, the first graduation of officers for the Strategic Missile Forces took place. The faculty trains military institute cadets in the following specialties: launch and technical complexes of missiles and spacecraft; cars and automotive industry.

  • Faculty No. 2 “Missile control systems”

The faculty was created in 1962.

  • Faculty No. 3 “Nuclear Weapons”

The faculty was created in 1971.

  • Faculty No. 4 “Automated control systems”

The faculty was created in 1977. The faculty trains specialists for the Strategic Missile Forces in the following specialties: “Automated systems for transmitting and processing information”, “Application and operation of automated control systems of missile systems”, “Application and operation of electronic warfare equipment”, as well as specialists for electronic warfare units and structures of the FSO and FSB.

Many school-age children crowd at the entrance to the Strategic Missile Forces Institute in Serpukhov. They are distinguished from ordinary applicants by their athletic figures, the “that’s right!” slipping into conversations. and sometimes the military uniform worn by conscripts. Documents are submitted here in a hall with huge portraits of Suvorov and Zhukov.

This year, the Institute of Rocket Forces of the Russian Federation in Serpukhov, a branch of the Military Academy of the Strategic Missile Forces named after Peter the Great, received a record number of applications for admission. They continue to come to this day.

In terms of the number of applicants, the academy has become the leader among technical universities in Russia. And the Faculty of Automated Systems received more applications than the recognized leaders - MSTU. Bauman and Moscow State University, reports the Russian Ministry of Defense. Institute staff explain the sky-high competition for a technical university for several reasons.

Until recently, military officials say, military service was not very popular. Reforms in recent years have changed the situation. Salaries have increased and at the very initial stage they amount to 50 thousand rubles. The prestige of military service and higher military education has soared, primarily due to popularization by the Ministry of Defense and the media.

Applicants admit that military education attracts them due to the combination of physical and engineering training and serious sports activities. On an area of ​​110 hectares, in addition to educational buildings and military equipment, there is a swimming pool, lakes, a football field, and a sports complex.

The most common question heard at the admissions committee is: will girls study here? The answer is they won’t; three years ago they were transferred to study in Voronezh.

Despite the common goals, each applicant has his own story. Someone decided to follow the example of their father and brothers and also become a military man in order to defend their homeland. Someone entered an art university, studied for a year, but realized that strategic troops were closer to blueprints and drawings. Someone, having served a year in compulsory service, was inspired by the idea of ​​connecting his life with the army forever. Some say that they deliberately did not buy a return ticket: there is nowhere to retreat.

“Many acquaintances and friends have already joined the military and are very happy, so I also decided to throw in my lot with the military profession and enter the Strategic Missile Forces Institute. I’m from a rural area, I mostly tinkered with technology, so engineering is closest to me,” says Evgeny Bukarev from the Krasnodar Territory.

“I wanted to go to a military school for quite a long time, but my parents did not entirely approve of this choice. At the same time, I drew well. They suggested that I purposefully enter an art academy to become an artist, architect or designer. I took their advice and went to the architectural academy. I studied there for six months, realized that it was not for me, and still dropped out,” says Ilya Yarusov, Udmurt Republic.

“I have friends who study here, who recommended this academy and said it was good. The best,” explains Timur Aldebregyanov, Orenburg region.

“All the equipment is right here, nearby. And our cadets constantly apply the acquired knowledge in practice. You need to shoot at dawn - they will shoot at dawn. We need to study the technology inside and out - we study it,” Lieutenant Colonel Sergei Kotlyar, head of the training and maintenance base for complexes at the Strategic Missile Forces Institute, told RT.

Until 2014, the academy in Serpukhov trained cadets only for the mobile group of the Strategic Missile Forces. Today they train here to work on silo launchers, and this is what distinguishes this institute from other military universities. Although the majority of military universities in the country have unusually high competition this year, many guys explain that they would like to connect their lives not just with the army, but with nuclear weapons, and that is what they came to Serpukhov for.

Deputy head of the Faculty of Automated Control Systems, the most popular among applicants, Colonel Vladimir Ershov told RT what kind of people enroll there, what the cadets do in their free time, and also expressed his point of view on the reasons for the growing popularity of strategic missile forces in Russia.

“I can briefly outline the portrait of the applicants. Every year it gets better and better. Due to what? The first is due to an increase in recruitment. It has doubled, in some areas the competition is up to 10 people per place. Cadets come well prepared both physically and mentally. Here the selection is very tough, strict, but good-natured.

The maximum enrollment this year can be explained by good preparation at the initial stage. There was good organization and campaigning through the media, Facebook, Odnoklassniki. This is all due to the growing popularity of the army. Firstly - social security, secondly - good salaries, thirdly - military prestige. In the 1990s it was embarrassing to wear a uniform, now we are proud of it.

I want you, enthusiastic parents, whose child enters this vocational school with the possibility of breaking his psyche and ruining his life, to OPEN YOUR EYES to what this vocational school is like.
I myself studied at the Federal Vocational School of the Strategic Missile Forces named after. Peter the Great in Serpukhov at the 4th faculty, which is solemnly headed by the disrespected Colonel Sergei Grigorievich Borodin. If you are not yet sure of the name of the faculty - Faculty of Automated Combat Control Systems and so on. Are you surprised by this introduction? Then the fun begins.
I entered this vocational school only because my parents had an apartment in Serpukhov - it was a big mistake.
I studied in the company of the valiant Major Denis Valerievich Kochergin. 43 Forever, Denis Valerievich. A wonderful person, a THIEF, an ALCOHOLIC who loves to boss around your child while drunk. At night. When should your son sleep? Yelling at him, and basically everyone, with obscenities is normal IN HIS UNDERSTANDING. Thus, he turns your, so far healthy son, into a REAL MAN AND A RIGHT OFFICER. To be honest, I don’t know how I saw him more often, drunk or sober. But the fish rots from the head and all of the above can and should be addressed to S.G. Borodin. Unfortunately, he has more power and more guys suffer because of him.
You and your child should forget what money is and how much it costs. Because there their value drops sharply. And you will have to give in everything. For example, for tracksuits 8 thousand rubles. in 2013. Or for the renovation of the dormitory where your son will have to live, 20 thousand rubles. Moreover, this money will not be enough (STRANGE), and you will have to buy everything additionally, quietly, at your own expense, otherwise your son will be released on vacation a couple of days later. I fell for this trick twice. Delay his departure on vacation for as long as it takes for your son to understand that it’s easier to pay off and make repairs at your own expense, or buy games for the officer’s console, or just throw money at him, but money is nothing to him, your son, they are not needed.
By the way, an interesting fact: with another, real company commander and officer, from another faculty, the cadets passed 6 thousand, and their repairs were many times better. Fortunately, there are very rare exceptions.
So that you have an understanding of the corruption of this institution, I will tell you what amazing indulgences the current command of the UNIVERSITY goes to.
Until 2015, it was actually prohibited for a cadet to study for a license, just as it was forbidden to have a license. But suddenly, oh my God, we allow everyone to get a license. Please, cadets. But only in a certain place. But only, ATTENTION, for 56 thousand rubles. TWO TIMES EXPENSIVE THE MARKET COST OF TRAINING.
You still have doubts. Only one driving school enjoyed such a privilege. Well, what about the cadets, you can MILK them to INFINITY.
Further. Education. Getting an education. Shootings will take place once a semester. They will still give your real officer a couple of cartridges. Pieces 4-5. Enough.
There are both good and bad teachers. Training base = 0.
But this doesn’t matter, since whether your son passed the test or not can easily be decided by some officer. For example Kochergin, or Borodin, or someone else. Even if he writes excellently, if there is personal hostility towards him, he will probably be expelled at any moment. Otherwise this is a disgrace. He just doesn’t want to flatter or lick their ass. You can't make him humiliate himself. I do such things. They don’t need real men like that.
Yes, tolerating this is an important quality when an officer wakes you up, such as drying your feet or jokingly hitting your kidneys with a hammer. This is not sarcasm. This really happened, including to me. Also, the door to your room can be knocked down if stupid officers have lost the key to it. By the way, we paid separately for the doors. It seems to be around 5 thousand. I could be wrong. You can also tear up linoleum for your son for 20 k. He'll buy more. Turn over and trample his bed and pillow (bed linen) changed once a week. Yes, and be sure, LISTEN, be sure to pass on the alcohol for your son’s company commander when he returns from vacation.
And, probably, your favorite, and this concerns you as well as your son. My case. Private. It turned out that my parents went to another region for several years. Just while I was studying. I didn’t see them for the first time for half a year, since they didn’t have the opportunity to come to me. But when they arrived, I went to Kochergin to ask permission to go to the checkpoint and see them. So, as soon as I opened the door, they sent me to ***. And unfortunately this is not the rank of senior lieutenant. So, I never saw my parents.
Your son will have to endure a lot.
BUT I HURRY TO MAKE YOU HAPPY. THIS IS NOT THE SAME IN OTHER UNIVERSITIES. I communicate and have communicated with guys from other academies. Those who were expelled study at other universities and are doing well. There is no such circus there. There they won’t just be expelled and ruin their lives.
Well, at the very end. I strongly advise you to draw your own conclusions. DO NOT SEND YOUR SON TO THIS TECHNIQUE!

On February 23, the Serpukhov branch of the Military Academy of the Strategic Missile Forces named after Peter the Great celebrates its 75th anniversary. This is one of the largest universities in the country, which is rightfully considered the forge of personnel for the country’s nuclear missile shield! In 1941, the 2nd Moscow Military Aviation School of Special Services Mechanics was formed with a location in Tushino. With the beginning of the Great Patriotic War in October 1941, the school was evacuated to the city of Abdulino, Chkalovsk (Orenburg) region for further training of personnel. In 1943, as a result of the victorious offensive of the Red Army troops, the front moved to the west. This created the conditions for the return of military educational institutions to their former locations. On March 7, 1943, the aircraft mechanics school returned to Tushino, Moscow Region. And in October 1943, the State Defense Committee of the USSR decided to transfer the Tushino aviation school to the city of Serpukhov, Moscow region. During the Great Patriotic War, the school produced 21 graduates, and more than 6,500 aircraft mechanics and technicians were trained. For their courage and heroism, more than 2,000 graduates were awarded orders and medals, 37 graduates were awarded orders and medals from foreign countries. Colonel N.Ya. Rudakov was awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union for the courage and heroism shown during the crossing of the Dnieper and holding a bridgehead on its right bank. In 1948, the school was transformed into the Serpukhov Military Aviation Technical School of the Air Force Special Services. And in 1960, the school became part of the Strategic Missile Forces. In 1962, the Serpukhov Military Aviation Technical School of the Air Force Special Services was transformed into the Serpukhov Higher Military Command and Engineering School. The training base was gradually expanded, and the range of specialties for which officers were trained for the Strategic Missile Forces was expanded. Since 1971, the university began training specialists for the 12th Main Directorate of the Ministry of Defense. To solve this problem, a separate faculty was formed, which also has an anniversary this year - 45 years since its formation. The formation and development of the university is inextricably linked with the history of the country and its Armed Forces. The training system has always kept pace with the country's military-industrial complex. Judge for yourself: the basic missile system for study in the 80s was the Pioneer (RSD-10), at the end of the 80s - the Topol (RS-12M), and since the 90s also the Topol- M" (RS12M2). Since 2015, the branch’s faculties have begun training specialists for the promising mobile and stationary Yars missile systems. Over the years of its existence, the university has taken an active part in the formation and development of rocket and space technology and nuclear weapons. It has become the leading educational institution of the Strategic Missile Forces for the training of officers in the field of aircraft control systems and testing and launch equipment for missile and space launch complexes, nuclear technical support, automated control systems for troops and weapons for units and subunits armed with stationary and mobile ground-launched missiles. complexes. Many commanders of formations, formations and military units of the Strategic Missile Forces have graduated from the university. More than 20 thousand rocket officers have graduated from the academy’s branch. Currently, the academy branch trains officers in 10 specialties under full military special training programs and warrant officers in 3 specialties with secondary military special training. 5 faculties of higher education and a training battalion of secondary vocational education are successfully functioning. For the third year in a row, the enrollment of cadets is about a thousand people. The pride of the academy branch is its highly qualified teaching staff. The educational institution employs 24 doctors and 205 candidates of science. Among them are 35 professors and 101 associate professors. 16 employees have honorary titles. Of these - 5 Honored Scientists of the Russian Federation; 6 honored workers of higher education of the Russian Federation; 3 Honored Inventors of the Russian Federation; 1 Honored Worker of Communications of the Russian Federation and 1 Honored Worker of Physical Culture of the Russian Federation. Every year, representatives of the academy branch take part in competitions for the best scientific works performed by personnel of military command and control bodies, military units and organizations of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, as well as permanent staff, adjuncts and doctoral students of educational organizations of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation. The university has rightfully always been and is considered one of the best in training military personnel. And today, thanks to the dedicated military work, high professionalism and skill of officers, scientific and teaching staff, cadets, engineering and technical staff, the academy branch successfully solves the problem of training specialists for the Strategic Missile Forces, 12 GUMO, and other law enforcement agencies and departments. On behalf of the command and the Academic Council, we congratulate all veterans, all graduates, and the staff of the branch of the Military Academy of the Strategic Missile Forces named after Peter the Great on the 75th anniversary of its formation! We wish you good health and new successes in the difficult but noble work of training and educating new generations of strategic missile scientists!
