Dmitry Rogozin, former head of Roscosmos, Russia’s state space agency, suggested that Russian President Vladimir Putin hit Ukraine with a space missile. The idea came shortly after he was hit by shrapnel in his buttock last December.

Bild publication reported this, citing sources and recordings of Rogozin’s conversations with Director General of the Rocket Space Centre. [The media received recordings of Rogozin’s conversations with Dmitry Baranov, Director General of the Progress Rocket Space Centre.]

Judging by these records, they discussed the technical details of organizing an attack on a large city in Ukraine with the help of a launch vehicle used for flights into space since the beginning of January 2023. They concluded that it would be best to launch it from the Plesetsk Cosmodrome with explosives on board.

As Baranov believed, the main problem is that existing heavy high-explosive bombs or guided warheads would overheat due to supersonic entry into the atmosphere. Rogozin promised to consult the designer Yuriy Solomonov. Bild reports that he found a solution after a few days.

In addition, they discussed that parts of the missile could fall on the territory of Russia. They were also concerned that the error during the impact could be 50 to 100 km.
Rogozin asked Baranov how much time he would need to prepare. He answered that about six months.

The media reports that Rogozin called Putin “our great and terrible” and said he would pass the plan to him through Anton Vaino.

Bild says the plan was brought to Putin on 16 January. How he reacted to it is still unknown.

“Rogozin can be compared to a monkey with a grenade after he, allegedly, suggested hitting Ukraine with a space rocket”, said Andrii Yusov, representative of the Defense Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine.

“Previously, we talked about a monkey with a grenade, and now - about Rogozin with a rocket,” said Yusov.
