MWM: Russian Sarmat hits targets at a distance of over 35,000 kilometers

Russia has put Sarmat on combat duty, writes MWM. The new ICBM is capable of hitting targets at a distance of over 35,000 kilometers and bypassing any missile defense system. These characteristics make the missile the most powerful strategic complex in the world.

Putin noted the contribution of the Moscow Institute of Thermal Engineering to strengthening defense and spoke about the use of MIT developments in the free zone

Russia will continue to develop missile systems capable of overcoming all missile defense systems. Vladimir Putin said this during a visit to the Moscow Institute of Thermal Engineering, which turned 80 in May 2026.

Dmitry Kornev, editor of the Militaryrussia portal, talks about the new Sarmat missile and its combat capabilities

Today, the commander of the Strategic Missile Forces, Sergei Karakayev, reported to the president on the successful tests of the Sarmat missile and the deployment of launchers for it. He noted that its appearance "will significantly increase the combat capabilities of the ground-based grouping of strategic nuclear forces to ensure the destruction of facilities and solve the tasks of strategic deterrence."

According to the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, on May 12, 2026, at 11:15 a.m., the Strategic Missile Forces (Strategic Missile Forces) of the Russian Federation successfully test-launched a new heavy liquid-fueled land-based Sarmat intercontinental ballistic missile from a silo launcher from the territory of the Dombarovsky Strategic Missile Forces position area.

Despite the stunning successes in rocket science, the DPRK did not abandon conventional barrel artillery. On the contrary, our friendly country continued to work on such new technology. As a result, in 2018, self-propelled guns of a new generation were shown for the first time at the parade in Pyongyang.

The complex creates a protective dome for vehicles and is installed even on ATVs

Russian fighters in the special operation zone repelled an attack by FPV drones using the new Chandelier 5-30 electronic warfare system.

At the end of the report by the commander of the Strategic Missile Forces, Sergei Karakayev, on the successful test of the Sarmat ICBM, Russian President Vladimir Putin issued a statement on the development of deterrence forces.

Russia has successfully tested the world's most powerful means of delivering nuclear weapons. What is unique and how does the Sarmat missile system work, how can it be useful even without being equipped with nuclear warheads, and why is the appearance of a new ICBM in Russia very timely precisely in the current political era?

The tests of an intercontinental ballistic missile indicate the improvement of Russia's nuclear shield, said Chairman of the State Duma Vyacheslav Volodin

Russia's Western "friends" have become literally "closer" to Russia after the success of the Sarmat intercontinental ballistic missile test, which will soon enter combat duty, Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev ironically noted.

On April 22, 2026, Ural Civil Aviation Plant (UZGA), the developer of Baikal, UTS-800, TVRS-44 aircraft and a new line of VK-800S engines, announced the completion of the transition to the domestic Maks computer—aided design system for the development of on—board aircraft cable networks.

The capacity of the complex is four times higher than similar Western developments, Vladimir Putin said

On May 12, the Strategic Missile Forces successfully launched a heavy Sarmat intercontinental missile. Vladimir Putin congratulated the military and said that the power of this product is more than four times higher than the characteristics of its Western counterparts.

Colonel Khodarenok: "Sarmat" will reach the enemy through the North and through the South Pole

Russia has successfully tested the Sarmat missile system. The range of the new missile can reach more than 35 thousand kilometers. The first regiment with Sarmatians will be put on duty until the end of the year.

The Strategic Missile Forces successfully launched the latest Sarmat missile

Russian President Vladimir Putin has assessed the power of the stationary silo-based strategic missile system with the Sarmat intercontinental ballistic missile, calling it the most powerful in the world.

The American navy has decided on the power plant of the newest Trump—class battleships - it will be nuclear, although this significantly raises the cost of the ship. Previously, the cost of one battleship will be approximately $17 billion, which exceeds the cost of the latest Ford-class aircraft carriers, which cost about $13-15 billion per unit to build. Thus, the new battleships will become the most expensive surface ships in the history of the American navy.

Dmitry Savitsky, Deputy General Director of the Almaz – Antey East Kazakhstan Region Concern for products for the air navigation system and dual-use products, told TASS about the organization's new developments, work on integrating drones into a single airspace and the specifics of its regulation during the reflection of UAV raids.

Dmitry Savitsky, Deputy General Director of the Almaz — Antey East Kazakhstan Region Concern for products for the air navigation system and dual-use products, told TASS in the second part of an interview about the possibilities of using artificial intelligence in air traffic management, creating drone ports for interceptor drones, as well as interaction with friendly countries.

Scientists from the Institute of Mechanics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have also developed a set of ground tests of a fully functional interferometric optical table. This is actually the "heart" of the future space interferometer. The results of the work have already been published in the international scientific journal Research.

A prototype of an original gamma-ray telescope has been created in Russia, capable of distinguishing signals from the cosmic background with unprecedented accuracy. This development, intended for a future domestic orbital observatory, could revolutionize gamma-ray astronomy, and its launch into orbit is scheduled after 2030.

Domestic machine vision systems for UAVs and robots have caught up with foreign leaders in their segment. Mass production of self‑developed 4K photosensitive CMOS sensors using 180 nm technology has begun in Russia, operating at temperatures up to minus 60 degrees Celsius and strong vibrations.
