Russian President Vladimir Putin has suffered an emabarassing setback as his feared Satan 2 nuclear arsenal failed four out of five missile tests, according to arms experts and satellite imagery from the launch site.
High-resolution satellite images of the launch pad at Russia’s Plesetsk test site, where the RS-28 Sarmat intercontinental ballistic missile exploded, shows extensive damage.
A crater approximately 60 meters wide at the launch silo at the Plesetsk Cosmodrome in northern Russia, along with visible damage in the surrounding area that was not present in images taken earlier in the month.
I heard the success one got 35 kilometres, anyone can confirm?
for a ballistic missile 35 km is pretty ass. I think even ATACMs gets pretty close to this, upwards of like (edit 300km, i think i’m thinking of gmlrs lol) And that’s just a missile.
Ballistic missiles should really be able to go intercontinental, that was kind of the point of them.
ATACMS can go 300 km.
good call, i think i was confusing it with gmlrs for a second, though it’s also worth noting for a while the export variants had limited ranges, due to the US concerns over ukraine stuffing this shit straight into moscow.
Not anymore though.
for a ballistic missile 35 km is pretty ass.
Extremely ass.
Howitzers can shoot like 30km.
edit this cannon can do 41 km https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/155_GH_52_APU
edit2 we in Finland have like 700 howitzers and 56 of those linked cannons, plus tons of heavy mortars etc etc
How many kilometers is one stick of dynamite? By one stick, I mean like the size of a soda’s height with a diameter equal or Greater than an A in chemistry. The internal composition being 37.3 grains and the .3 grain was cut and licked properly…so yeah, how many kilometers would that be?
Why would you make up your own metric? 1 stick and 1/2 stick are literal measurements.
You understood the comment?
The perfect range to nuke their own city and claim Ukraine did it.
Didn’t Ukraine give up it’s nuclear armaments by treaty with Russia in exchange for Russia acknowledging its sovereignty?
A treaty that died the moment Russian tanks crossed the border.
Not saying Ukraine have nukes, nor that they should have them, but if they did, they wouldn’t be in violation of that particular treaty.
the moment russian tanks crossed the border.
For clarity, that moment occurred in 2014.
I mean, it would be in line with their other obvious lies.
