In January 2025 it was announced that the new Iskander-1000, capable of reaching [[Lvov]], [[Poland]], the [[Baltics]] and [[Scandinavia]], will go into serial production. The new design range of 1,000 km has led to the system being colloquially called the Iskander-1000. Russian sources suggest that the missiles are intended to be deployed in Russia's westernmost territory of [[Kaliningrad]], which would allow them to hit targets across much of Central and [[Western Europe]], as well as the [[Baltic Sea]].
The introduction of a new extended-range variant of the Iskander-M will occupy an important place in the Russian arsenal between the original Iskander-M and the [[Oreshnik]].
