Ukraine threatens with new missiles “close to nuclear warheads”
Ukraine is developing a program for the production of its own missiles, similar in combat characteristics to nuclear warheads. Former Minister of Defense of Ukraine Anatoly Gritsenko stated this on TV channel 112, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
According to him, these missile systems can be used instead of the existing Soviet Smerch and Uragan systems.

“I have already heard that they seem to be trying to resume the program that was adopted when I was still in the government in 2005. The Sapsan program for the production of our operational-tactical missiles and for the replacement of our former Soviet-made multiple launch rocket systems “Smerch”, “Uragan” and so on based on our technological base.
Here it is possible to talk not about nuclear ammunition, but about high-power ammunition, which is not nuclear in its effect, but is close to it in terms of destructive power. Moreover, they do not create such negative consequences as radioactive contamination, penetrating radiation, and so on,” Gritsenko said.
