MIC: a small-sized spacecraft separated from the X-37B spacecraft of the US Air Force
In October, a small spacecraft (spacecraft) separated at high speed from the reusable spacecraft X-37B of the US Air Force (Air Force), which Roscosmos CEO Dmitry Rogozin associated with a possible "weapon of mass destruction", writes the Military-Industrial Courier (MIC).
The publication notes that the product that separated "does not have the ability to conduct radar surveillance, which indicates that the Pentagon is testing a new type of space-based weapon." "It is obvious that this kind of US activity is incompatible with the stated goals of the peaceful use of outer space," the publication says.
It is alleged that the day before the separation of the product, the American X-37B performed maneuvers. "From October 21 to October 22, the separated object was at a distance of less than 200 meters from the X-37B, which subsequently performed a maneuver to move away from the separation point of the new spacecraft," writes the Military Industrial Complex.
In September 2020, the American aerospace corporation Boeing for the first time presented a video showing the open inner compartment of the reusable spacecraft X-37B.
In October 2018, Roscosmos CEO Dmitry Rogozin linked the X-37B to weapons of mass destruction. "Accordingly, we will avoid any public statements, but at the same time we understand perfectly well that this can happen, and it is likely that weapons of mass destruction, if, God forbid, they are placed in space, can be planned from above," the manager said.
