Russian rocket launch

News

Three days have passed since the tests of the Zircon rocket, but the results have not been announced

The test data of the Russian hypersonic rocket decided not to voice.

The tests of hypersonic weapons that began at the training ground of the Russian Navy, located near the village of Nyonoksa on July 7, 2020, have not yet received any publicity. Taking into account the fact that the Russian frigate "Admiral Makarov" was seen in this area, which has on its board installations for launching hypersonic missiles "Zircon", as well as the fact that these missiles should appear in the arsenal of Russia in the near future, experts have suggested that this cruise missile will be tested. However, over the past 72 hours, no launch results were presented in this way, which raised many questions as to whether preparations for the launch of the Zircon missiles were actually carried out.

At the moment, we are not talking about conducting state tests, and therefore, if the launches of the Zircon missiles did take place, then the information on this matter was almost certainly classified. On the other hand, taking into account the capabilities of the Russian hypersonic missile, its launch would almost certainly have been recorded not only from the territory of nearby settlements, but also probably from the territory of neighboring states, especially since the missile is intended to deliver strikes at distances of up to 1 kilometers ... Considering the fact that today no country in the world except China and Russia possesses hypersonic weapons, it is logical to assume that the tests, if they really were, were carried out in the strictest secrecy, and, probably, their success for the same reason and is not made public.
