Following on from their new IRBM the SS-10 the Clone Army has also introduced into service a new short range ballistic missile (SRBM) the SS-11. The missile has a range of about 1100km and is fully road-mobile. Like the SS-10 it can carry conventional and nuclear warheads and may also use the same MAV guidance data link capability. The Clones are not commenting on this but the missile uses the same guidance and communication module of the SS-10 so it seems likely.
The SS-11 is solid fuelled and uses a highly innovative "cold flame" rocket technology. The chemical composition of the fuel is a special formula that can produce a low-heat chemical jet reaction. The infra red signature of the missile is 80% less than a conventionally fuelled one. This technology is being developed as part of the stealth suite for developments of CSM and SS-11 is likely to be helping develop the technology.
