Object-100 Utes (Utyos) or Sotka is a Russian Navy anti-ship missile coastal defense division built in Soviet times, using bunker TEL (similar to Nike Hercules SAM ABM) with a pair of SS-N-3 Shaddock P-35B 4K44B (same used operated on Redut complex) SS-N-3b Shaddock 3M44 Progress, can also launch different ones like P-6 P-35B S-35.
In 2020 a Tsirkon missile system was deployed to this base,[1] which may have been used for the 25 March 2024 attack on Kyiv.[2][unreliable source?]
In October 2024, the complex was used to attack civilian ships in the port of Odessa.[3][4]
Modern times
[edit]Recently, after the 2014 referendum and annexation of Crimea, Russia started restoring and reactivating the site (over also start planning shipbuilding in Sevastopol, Feodosia and Kerch yard wharves plus various industrial factories in the peninsula along agriculture, transport infrastructures), can also operate mobile TEL Bastion P-800, silo K300S Oniks, Moskit TEL, Bal, Kalibr and Biryuza and maybe Iskander-K R-500 (it is unknown if 3M51 Alfa missiles will also be air launched and TEL like other missile complexes). "Bastion" silo-based missile complex should be deployed by 2020.[5]
Utes, or Sotka, Object-100 missiles are situated right on a cliff, with the sea beneath, 50–100 m from sea level, stationed at two firing positions (bunker TEL) alongside the rest of the base facilities.
In April 2017, crews of a 4K44 Utyos (SS-C-1B Sepal) stationary coastal defense missile system in Crimea test fired a P-35 (SS-C-3) cruise missile at a sea target. The missile has a range of 300 km and a 1,000 kg (2,200 lb) high-explosive warhead.[6]
