Ukrainian kamikaze drone strikes 'struck Putin's Satan-2 nuclear missiles' - prompting huge explosion
Daily Mail UK ^ | September 21, 2024 | Freya Barnes

A Ukrainian kamikaze drone strike reportedly struck Vladimir Putin's Satan-2 nuclear missile, prompting an apocalyptic explosion yesterday morning.

A secret ammunition silo facility at Toropets in Tver region that housed one of the Russian President's nuke missiles was hit by Ukrainian drone, it was claimed yesterday.

It allegedly happened just ten miles from an 'indestructible' 30,000 ton munitions storage site that had been obliterated on Wednesday.

A huge explosion was triggered when the 'Satan-2' missile was hit, causing locals to panic over fears of a Doomsday detonation.

The claim that the missile was destroyed came from a Russian Telegram channel and a news blackout intensified the rumour.

If they move to launch on warning for even a conventional drone strike we all end up paying for Ukraine’s stupidity Putin's lust for conquest.

Stop trying to blame the victim here!

Russia launched an unprovoked invasion against Ukraine, has annexed vast swaths of Ukrainian territory, and has been fire-bombing Ukrainian cities for more than two and a half years.

Ukraine is more than justified in fighting back, and targeting purely military targets like munition dumps.

[...] it is primarily plutonium dioxide (PuO2) which is airborne

Until it isn't airborne anymore (like when it falls back on Russian territory).

Yawn!

If a nuclear warhead had detonated, the NY Times would have reported yesterday.

Just because a nuclear-tipped missile is destroyed doesn't necessarily mean that it triggered an atomic chain reaction / nuclear explosion. In all likelihood, some radioactive materials would have been released, contaminating that locality. Big deal!

All of the Putin supporters here are getting their feathers ruffled - more so than they would have if the Russians had bombed yet another Ukrainian kindergarten.

Why am I not surprised?

There is no way a kamikaze drone was able to penetrate 8 feet of reinforced concrete missile silo to hit a Sarmat not only in its silo but also inside it’s launch cradle both of which is designed to take a 476 kiloton Trident warhead 100 meters away. No way no how it’s neocon jerking off fantasy to think a few hundred lb drone could do that. The Russians were loading up munitions trains and drones hit the rail cars. The propaganda is deep with the globalhomos lately.

Sincerely, I was unaware that you had been appointed to the position of Deservedly Belonging Czar. Most of our so-called NATO allies are far from it - Turkey as low-hanging fruit in this category.

Oktyabrsky is reportedly a storage site, not a launch site.

Have no idea what you are referencing here.

Am not saying that there is no room for occasional differences of opinion or even political dispute among the various Member States. But to wish that radioactive contamination from a Russian nuke (= legitimate military target) destroyed by a sovereign nation fighting for survival should harm citizens of fellow NATO countries... That's beyond the pale.

Putin supporters shedding tears over the destruction of a weapon literally named "Satan."

Unbelievable.

“The prevailing winds go toward Siberia”

I believe it is based on the time of year. According to AccuWeather, atmospheric winds are running South then branch off both west and east in Southern Russia including over the Ukraine.

More good news:

🇷🇺A number of major Western resources report that Russia conducted test launches of the RS-28 Sarmat (Satan II) ICBM. Allegedly, as a result of the launch attempt, a malfunction occurred and the missile exploded inside the silo.

Also based on satellite images, it is reported that the frame shows a huge crater, which was a testing ground.

Nuclear ICBM RS-28 “Sarmat” reportedly explodes during Russian test

According to OSINT analyst MT Anderson, the RS-28 “Sarmat” missile exploded in its silo at the Plesetsk test range in the Arkhangelsk region, leaving a massive crater and destroying the facility.

This is reportedly the fourth failed test of the “Sarmat”; the first and only successful test occurred on April 20, 2022.

Of course the ship might have trouble finding a port to dock in.

Head for Melbourne Australia and watch "On The Beach" play out.

And brush up on your Morse Code. See if you can make any sense of the signal.

There is a big difference between destroying the payload carrying equipment vs. destroying the warhead and compromising its containment vessel.

We can debate whether Ukraine is justified in launching these types of attacks into Russian territory, but the big question is “How will Putin react?” He’s not going to use nuclear weapons, but it’s likely that he will step up the use of hypersonic conventional missiles to destroy Ukrainian targets, which may involve collateral civilian casualties. The question then becomes “How will the US and other NATO countries react to Putin’s launch of these missiles? Reportedly, Jake Sullivan is the only US official blocking Ukraine’s widespread use of missiles to attack targets deep into Russian territory. Other US officials (Blinken?), as well as many European officials, are ready to start immediately launching these attacks into Russia. The Europeans can’t act without US approval, but who knows what will happen if Sullivan loses influence?

NATO is biting a patriotic American should support. Maybe Germans like it. It’s a welfare program for European bureaucrats and a force for evil globalism.

Moronic statement Lol, We named it the Satan not them, they named it the Sarmat. And hate to break it to you, but the Japanese didn’t have a dive bomber named Judy…. It was the D4Y Suisei.

Guess that term blockhead for krauts didn’t just fall out of the sky.
