The RS-27 (?) or SS-X-31\32Zh (?) Barguzin BZhRK БЖРК Project on development for RVSN, replacement of the previous railway missile train intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) Molodets BZhRK БЖРК SS-24 Scalpel. BZhRK stands for ru:Боевой железнодорожный ракетный комплекс (railway missile train).

Until 2014 it was not clear whether the missile would be based on Yars, Bulava, SS-24 Scalpel, Rubezh Avangard, maybe some from SS-15 Scrooge, SS-N-20 Sturgeon and SS-N-28 developments.
