Ukraine salvages charred pieces of Russia’s savage new ballistic missile as Putin makes ominous promise
NY Post ^ | 11/24/2024 | Ronny Reyes

Kyiv’s Security Service salvaged the remains of the new hypersonic ballistic missile Russia fired at central Ukraine as it warned that Moscow would transform Ukraine into a “testing ground” for its bombs.

Charred fragments of the new Oreshnik missile were put on display for reporters on Sunday following its use last week against a military site in Dnipro.

The Oreshnik, Russian for hazel tree, appears to be based on Moscow’s RS-26 Rubezh intercontinental ballistic missile and is capable of carrying either conventional or nuclear warheads.

Several destroyed components of the rocket were recovered from the blast, including mangled wires and an airframe the size of a large snow tire.

“It should be noted that this is the first time that the remains of such a missile have been discovered on the territory of Ukraine,” an expert with Ukraine’s Security Service told the Associated Press.

“an airframe the size of a large snow tire”

As opposed to a large normal tire?

Hypersonic: 3,836–7,673 mph (6,173–12,348 km/h; 1,715–3,430 m/s)
8,500 mph is high hypersonic

Ukraine will respond with a transonic ‘Rainbow Warrior’ Z-missile and demand that the world acknowledge it is just as good.
Better send this absolute money pit another 10B at least.

Think of them as huge bullets coming in at 11,000 fps.

They did lots of damage empty, but not enough that some people didn’t take it as a sign of weakness by Russia rather than restraint.

Unlike our leadership, Russia knows nobody wins a nuclear war.

All the war games predict that once a single nuke is deployed, the whole world will be engulfed in nuclear war in a matter of minutes.

Russia gave us fair warning.

Zeepers vehemently deny they’re in bed with Soros.

Your post proves otherwise.

President Trump will treat Putin differently because unlike Rocket Man, Putin’s missiles will hit their intended targets.
