America’s futile attempts to field a working hypersonic weapon demonstrate just how far behind in missile tech the rogue superpower has fallen. While it was busy with futile attempts to tarnish the reputation of Russian hypersonic missiles, the rest of the world kept doing its homework and the effort is finally paying off. Namely, on April 2, North Korea conducted the first test launch of an intermediate-range ballistic missile (IRBM) with a hypersonic warhead. While it’s not entirely clear what sort of weapon is on top of the missile, it looks to be a glide vehicle (HGV). Dubbed the “Hwasong-16B” in most […] #Asia #Featured #Government #Military #WarZone Read Full Article: https://www.vtforeignpolicy.com/2024/04/north-korea-ahead-of-us-in-hypersonic-weapons/?feed_id=10735

Even before the horrendous Crocus City Hall terrorist attack, the Russian military’s long-range strike capabilities were sending shivers down the spines of NATO aggressors and their Neo-Nazi junta puppets. Weapons such as the 3M22 “Zircon”, a scramjet-powered hypersonic cruise missile, have been inducted into service in recent years and are now also being transferred to land-based platforms, specifically the K300P “Bastion-P” coastal defense system. With a 1500 km range (perhaps even more) and Mach 9 speed, the “Zircon” is over 3 times faster and its range is at least double that of the P-800 “Oniks” supersonic missiles originally used by the aforementioned platform, further […] #Featured #Investigations #Military #UkraineWar #WarZone Read Full Article: https://www.vtforeignpolicy.com/2024/03/why-are-nato-and-neo-nazi-junta-terrified-of-russias-zircon-hypersonic-missile/?feed_id=10555

For nearly two years now, the Kiev regime has been making unsubstantiated claims about allegedly “shooting down” Russian hypersonic missiles. Obviously, it was never able to produce any credible evidence that it actually accomplished such a feat. And yet, here we are. As Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu once said, the Neo-Nazi junta usually “shoots down” three times more missiles than the Russian military actually fires. And indeed, when one reads the press releases of the Kiev regime’s air defense forces, not a single Russian missile or drone is able to penetrate their airspace. On the other hand, the mainstream media and […] #Featured #UkraineWar #WarZone #World Read Full Article: https://www.vtforeignpolicy.com/2024/01/kiev-regime-claims-proof-it-can-shoot-down-russian-hypersonic-missiles-again/?feed_id=8056
