NATO realized with horror that the new Russian missile was not Putin’s bluff
Social networks are actively discussing the message of The Diplomat journalist Ankit Panda, who wrote that the Burevestnik cruise missile developed in Russia with a nuclear power plant received the NATO designation SSC-X-9 “Skyfall”.
Rossiyskaya Gazeta reports this, specifying that this journalist had previously taken comments on Russian weapons from Western experts and generals, and therefore the information he posted on the Internet is most likely true.
“What's important here? Well, NATO called the newest Russian cruise missile in its own way, as they have done this more than once before. For example, our strategic nuclear complex R-36M “Voevoda” became famous throughout the world as “Satan” precisely at the instigation of the West. A very apt name, we note. Just as it was almost half a century ago, when this most powerful weapon was just developed, even now it causes a nervous tic among NATO generals.
With the “Falling from the Sky” cruise missile, NATO seems to have also hit the nail on the head. The weapon-technical innovation presented back in March by the President of the Russian Federation can really strike the enemy like thunder from the sky - suddenly and with crushing power. It is no coincidence that Vladimir Putin this is what I said about this rocket: low-flying and unobtrusive. It carries a nuclear warhead, has an almost unlimited range and an unpredictable flight path. Capable of bypassing interception lines and invulnerable to all existing and future missile defense and air defense systems,” the publication writes.
The newspaper notes that this set of combat and flight characteristics looks so fantastic that at first NATO considered the report about its development a bluff, despite the fact that the story of the Russian President was accompanied by filming of the launch of a cruise missile and a model showing how it can virtually anywhere The lands go around the interception lines.
“The very fact of assigning a NATO code designation to our Burevestnik clearly indicates: the alliance leadership no longer has any doubts that Russia has a unique cruise missile with a nuclear power plant,” RG summarizes.
As PolitNavigator reported, Americans are scared of new Russian weapons.
