[2Николай Поникаров] К вопросу о "баллистичности" "Искандеров"...
Опять же, не настаивая на том, чтобы жестко придерживаться новой терминологии, но так -- для сведения, просто забавно... Так вот западные эксперты уже придумали им название -- "квазибаллистические" или "полубаллистические" ракеты :-): http://www.janes.com/security/international_security/news/jsws/jsws051108_1_n.shtml

Ballistic missiles
A new class of ballistic missiles is emerging, now being called 'quasi- or semi-' ballistic missiles. These are missiles that can manoeuvre during the boost, mid-course, and the terminal phases of flight. In the case of SRBM these missiles have very depressed trajectories, possibly as low as 40 km altitude for a missile with a range of 300 to 400 km. The trajectory shape is flat, but with the ability to change direction across track as well as to increase or decrease the range. This will make it more difficult for any defensive system to forecast the impact point. Such missiles have been available now for several years, but the newly emerging systems have a considerably improved capability that will stress the defence of forward deployed troops. The Russian Federation has also indicated that it is developing a similar capability for RVs fitted to their future ICBM and SLBM.
Ballistic missiles are less expensive to maintain than an air force, and the technologies can be transferred across to satellite launch vehicles, earning hard currencies. There seems no logical reason to expect these factors to change, and proliferation seems set to continue. However, the sum conclusion is that in the future, the ballistic missile and nuclear warhead threat situation is going to become more complex and international in nature, with whole regions likely to be involved rather than just two individual countries".
