Build 24 of the Gale-III ICBM has been successfully launched. Following the failure of Build 23 all eyes were on this one but the missile successfully reached it's target in the Northern Ocean. Build 24 (and 23) include the IR suppression technology to increase the stealthiness of the carrier rocket. This is more relavant for CSM.
As for CSM the Nuclear Space Vehicle (NSV), which is the space stage of the CSM system has successfully carried out a number of tests. NSV has now been returned to the factory for fitting with a superluminal capable engine and hyperspace field generator. Superluminal tests will be carried out next year. The first test launching an NSV into space off a Gale-III will be carried out this year analysts believe (probably Build 25), though the NSV to be launched is likely to be a dummy payload.
