The overview summarizes the main electromagnetic activities in Russia since the 12th Electromagnetic Launch Technology Symposium in 2004. This research has been focused on the development and improvement of electro-discharge launchers, railguns, and electrothermal-chemical (ETC) launchers. Research efforts have been directed toward studying the physical phenomena and processes limiting the attainment of high velocities and operational resources of launchers. Considerable attention has been paid to solving problems related to material erosion, the manufacture of new materials and their testing in high-current arc discharges, and the search for new applications of launchers in science and engineering.Index Terms-Electrodischarge launcher, electromagnetic launcher, electrothermal-chemical launcher.
