Kizner
The chemical weapons stored at the seven locations where chemical agents are stockpiled are categorized by the branch of the military service that commands the installation. The storage locations, as well as Kizner and Shchuch´ye, are under the command of the Russian Ground Forces and contain primarily nerve agent rocket and tube artillery warheads/projectiles. The agents are stored in a variety of munitions and containers: projectiles, bombs, rocket warheads, missile warheads, spray tanks and bulk containers. The Russian stockpile of R-VX, Sarin, Soman and Phosgene is 100 percent weaponized. With the exception of "complex" munitions, none of the Russian chemical weapons contain explosive components.
