The first training launch (R-2 missile) was performed on August 18.

On May 30, 1964, two regiments armed with R-9 Desna ICBM were formed under command of the 28th Division. Between 1967 and 1969 eleven UR-100 regiments were formed.

On President's order one of the regiments received title Kaluga. On September 12, 2007, one of the regiments (07390) was disbanded.

There were plans to disband the entire division by 2010, but on November 5, 2008 President Dmitry Medvedev during his speech at the joint session of Russia's Parliament announced that the 28th Division will resume its mission.

In 2013, work began on the rearmament of 10 silos of the 28th Missile Division with the silo complex version of the RS-24 "Yars" which completed in 2018.
