no need to use Hyper-sonic weapons when regular speed missiles hit the target just fine. If they were to be used it would be to hit London or New York. Or they might be used if Ukraine was able to knock down a conventional missile.
I assume Putin’s statement is meant to warn the west not to underestimate him.
True, however Russia did use First Generation Hypersonic Missiles and has acknowledged it.
Putin spoke as if he considers First Generation Hypersonic Missiles so slow that they are no longer Hypersonic.
