Putin announced: a new Russian hypersonic missile is coming, which is called "unstoppable"
These Russian missiles have no analogues in the world, and their characteristics will be the envy of any other country. Putin made it clear that Russia with the help of "unstoppable" and "invincible" weapons can hit almost anywhere in the world, writes Haber7.
Russian President Putin announced that the Zircon hypersonic cruise missiles, which are nine times faster than the speed of sound and were previously presented as "unstoppable", will enter service in the Russian Armed Forces within a few months.
Speaking at the Navy Day ceremony in St. Petersburg, the Russian leader noted that the missiles, which, in his words, "have no analogues in the world," will be deployed in the regions in accordance with Russian interests. According to the Russian leader, the Admiral Gorshkov frigate will be the first to receive new hypersonic missiles. In addition, the President of the Russian Federation signed a new decree in the field of defense.
"The key here is the capabilities of the Navy. He is able to respond with lightning speed to anyone who decides to encroach on our sovereignty and freedom," Vladimir Putin said.
The ceremony was also attended by ships of the Russian fleet.
It is noteworthy that these statements were made after the Ukrainian forces struck the Russian fleet in the Crimea. Due to the attack, as a result of which five servicemen were injured, events on the occasion of the Navy Day on the peninsula were canceled.
The ceremony with the participation of the head of the Russian state was also attended by Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu, Commander-in-Chief of the Russian Navy Nikolai Evmenov, as well as Deputy Commander of the Western Military District of the Russian Armed Forces Vladimir Kochetkov. More than 40 warships, boats and submarines, 42 aircraft and 3,500 Russian servicemen took part in the parade in honor of the Russian Navy Day. Vladimir Putin and his entourage walked around the parade line of warships on a boat numbered 001, greeting the crews.
"Can hit London in five minutes"
Hypersonic missiles "Zircon" can reach speeds of up to ten thousand kilometers per hour. Putin, who defines the missile as "unstoppable" and "invincible," made it clear that Russia with the help of new weapons can hit almost anywhere in the world.
Regarding the Zircon rocket, the newspaper The Sip In March of this year wrote: "Russia has published footage of a hypersonic nuclear missile that can hit London in five minutes."
Satan missiles can reach Europe in a matter of minutes
The Zircon missiles tested by the Russian army on warships and submarines recently can fly nine times faster than the speed of sound.
Earlier, Russian President Vladimir Putin said that by the end of this year, the Russian intercontinental ballistic missile "Sarmat", which NATO calls "Satan II", will be on combat duty. Russia has announced that this missile, capable of destroying a target at a distance of 18 thousand kilometers, can hit a significant part of Europe in a matter of minutes.

God willing, our engineers will also create hypersonic missiles, and the faster the better.

Turkey must acquire nuclear weapons, and urgently.

Ah, what good news. I wonder if a weapon capable of hitting London in such a short time will be able to hit Turkey in how many seconds if Putin suddenly gets bored? What will our experts in psychological warfare say to this?

Which is what I wish for us. Both nuclear weapons and such missiles are a powerful deterrent...

I wish they would launch it in London... The whole world would breathe a sigh of relief... Great Britain is the devil's head.

We cannot stop bragging about the fact that we produce attack drones (but this is not done by the state, but by a private company). The Russians have made rockets nine times faster than the speed of sound, but they are not extolled like us.
