Russia to test new missile capable of unlimited range, said to be world's 'most powerful' and 'invincible'; name is..., Europe is scared as...
New Delhi: The much-awaited meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and US President Donald Trump will be held in Alaska, USA, on 15 August to discuss the Ukraine issue. However, some of Trump's statements about Russia right before the proposed meeting can increase bitterness between the two countries. What did Trump say about Russia?
Donald Trump has described Russia's economy as being in crisis, adding that this is why he received a call from Putin for a meeting. In such a situation, Russia has also started preparations to show its military power. There are reports that Russia is preparing for new tests of 9M730 Burevestnik, one of the world's most powerful nuclear-powered cruise missiles. What is the importance of the Burevestnik missile for Russia?
Military experts say that if the test of 9M730 Burevestnik is successful, Russia will become the first country in the world to have a cruise missile capable of carrying nuclear power and nuclear weapons. Its range will be unlimited. In such a situation, it will be able to easily attack any part of the Earth. According to Defense Romania, 'There are indications that Russia is going to conduct a new test of its controversial nuclear-powered cruise missile 9M730 Burevestnik (NATO code: SSC-X-9 Skyfall) from the Pankovo range of the Arctic archipelago Novaya Zemlya.' Russia has issued NOTAM
Russia has issued a NOTAM (Notice to Airmen) warning covering 40,000 square kilometers of Novaya Zemlya from August 7 to August 12. In addition, at least four Russian ships, which were previously anchored near the Pankovo missile testing range, have been deployed at surveillance posts in the eastern Barents Sea. This is a standard security measure taken during any major missile test. How powerful is the 9M730 Burevestnik missile?
Burevestnik is a revolutionary missile of its kind. Its special feature is its ability to fly on nuclear power and carry out nuclear attacks. This gives the missile unlimited range and the ability to dodge the world's best air defense. Russian President Vladimir Putin has described it as an 'invincible' weapon. This missile can change its path whenever it wants. In such a situation, it can be very difficult for the enemy's air defense to stop it. According to the report of the US Air Force's National Air and Space Intelligence Center (NASIC), if this missile joins the Russian army, it will give Putin a unique strength.
