Could it be related to putin's sudden desire to negotiate a swap of Ukrainian territory for more Ukrainian territory?
Just keep in mind: to CREATE a missile like this, test it, OK it, and set it for mass production, it'll take an extreme event for dozens of these not to be fired off. So, I'd start expecting very soon, we will start to see some incredibly damaging footage in Ru that will tip the war massively to Ukr
Maybe if America asks very nicely and thanks Ukraine they'll figure out how to use it on the remaining 20 bases that just happen to cover America.
Fire 10 of them at the bridge. Now that would be a good test!
Slava Ukraine
Serious question. Does the much lower speed of a subsonic cruise missile vs super-sonic ATACMS make them a lot less effective, or does the vastly higher payload offset this due to the effect of each successful strike?
A 1 ton payload is pretty effective. If you are referring the potential for the slower missiles to be intercepted the Ukrainians have been effective in blinding anti air defenses.
Same question I had. ATACMS and cruise missiles are different tools. Someone should inarvertently leave some hypersonic missile plans in Ukraine.
I wouldn’t spend those on airfields. Definitely command and control buildings and media stations in Moscow would be my targets.

It changes if it can enter mass production (under daily heavy bombardments). We've heard about domestic ballistic missiles for years now. And they're nowhere to be seen. So a huge grain of salt here.

This is one hell of an accomplishment, taking into consideration Ukraine is fighting this war against Russia single handedly! Nevertheless, I fail to understand why every new weapon/drone/missiles have to be announced on Social Media prior to deployment!
Sometimes the announcement is the deployment, I suppose.
We can believe in this only when will have a results. Now it's only bla bla bla
Lets wait until we see it blowing up russian shit. Until then, I retain my skepticism around this one, around the ballistic of own production. I just dont want to get my hope up to then get disappointed.
Can’t wait for it to be deployed! Its time to reap the whirlwind for the orc nazis, just as for the original nazis all these years ago.
Developed and built in Ukraine 🇺🇦. Wow 🤯. Just wow 😳.
Waiting….. 💪💥
How many oil refineries are within that range?
