military unit 43176, HQ: Vladimir-21, Commander: Lieutenant General Oleg Glazunov
This location matches the 27th Guards Vitebsk Red Banner Missile Army of the Strategic Missile Forces (RVSN), headquartered in Vladimir; local reporting on the formation’s 60th anniversary states the HQ is in Vladimir, and a 2009 Russian defense order lists v/ch 43176 at Vladimir-21. Recent open reporting still identified Guards Lieutenant General Oleg Glazunov as commanding the army in 2024-2025.

Open procurement and municipal property records place v/ch 43176 at 47B Krasnoarmeyskaya Street, Vladimir, within military town No. 2. The cadastral listing shows a sizable military campus there with warehouses, storage buildings, a canteen, garages, and a transformer substation, consistent with a headquarters/support complex rather than a stand-alone office site.

The second unit number in the metadata, v/ch 71380, is traceable in open records as a “center of support” linked to the 43176 headquarters address; other public records place v/ch 71380 facilities in the Vladimir garrison/Perkopsky Gorodok and in d. Barki, Vladimir Oblast. However, the sources reviewed do not publicly confirm that v/ch 71380 is specifically the army’s command post, so that label should be treated as unverified. ([voentelecom.ru](https://voentelecom.ru/upload/about/pko/procedury/%D0%98%D1%82%D0%BE%D0%B3%D0%BE%D0%B2%D1%8B%D0%B9%20%D0%BF%D1%80%D0%BE%D1%82%D0%BE%D0%BA%D0%BE%D0%BB%20471.pdf))
Open sources do not publish a full current order of battle for this headquarters, but they do show the Vladimir missile association controlling subordinate Strategic Missile Forces formations across western and central Russia. In a 2021 interview, Glazunov said the army’s formations extended from Russia’s western border to the central Black Earth region; separate RVSN/MoD reporting links the army to Kozelsk, Bologoye, and Teykovo formations. ([nvo.ng.ru](https://nvo.ng.ru/nvo/2021-12-16/1_1170_opportunities.html))
Open reporting shows this army remained central to RVSN modernization through 2025. Glazunov said in December 2021 that Bologoye would begin conversion to the mobile Yars system in 2022 and that another Kozelsk regiment would enter combat duty that month; on 17 December 2025, RVSN commander Sergey Karakayev said Kozelsk’s silo-based Yars rearmament had been completed.
