It comes a day after another Yars missile was manoeuvred into a silo on the same site.
The Yars intercontinental ballistic missile is one of the most deadly weapons with a 7,500-mile range, meaning that it could hit the UK or US.
In the video released by the Russian Defence Ministry, a huge missile is seen being loaded into an underground shaft at the Kozelsky compound around 160 miles southwest of Moscow.
The footage shows the missile being carried on a Yars launch vehicle alongside a heavy military presence.

Footage then shows the missile being lowered into the launch silo and then titled 90 degrees.
It is widely seen as a form of nuclear showboating ahead of Russia’s Strategic Missile Forces Day on Saturday.
In October, Russian President Vladimir Putin was filmed watching the launch of a similar Yars missile as part of a mock attack on Britain and the US.
It comes after a pro-Putin MP and military expert called for a nuclear strike on the UK.
