Russia is developing a new “unstoppable” medium-range ballistic missile that will be more powerful than the Oreshnik, which will be ready by the end of the year, since the redesign concerns the fuel and the width of the cone that will now carry 8 warheads instead of 6!
The new fuel, however, will result in hitting key targets in half the previous time period.
That is, Warsaw (Poland) and Alexandroupolis (Greece) could be hit in less than 6 minutes!
The new missile will be able to reach London in 8 minutes, carrying 8 warheads that will independently be able to hit targets at a concrete-piercing depth of up to 30m, but this sounds rather modest:
In the first strike in Ukraine at the Dnipro factory on November 21, 2024, the warhead that consumed everything had reached a depth of 50 meters but was of a mixed structure at the impact level.
The impact times are unimaginable as from Russian territory the Oreshniks can now hit Warsaw in 11′, Berlin in 15′ and Brussels in 17′, Alexandroupolis in 11′ and Souda (Hellas) in 14′.
With the new missile, however, these distances reach half the time, while Athens, which is 8 minutes away from the destructive strike, is also in the spotlight.
According to initial reports, the new missile, in addition to its higher speed, also has a new accuracy system for the more (from 6 to 8) independently aimed, high-perforation, maneuvering warheads,
