On November 21, Russia used the latest Russian medium-range hypersonic missile system "Oreshnik" in a non-nuclear version to strike the Dnieper , Putin said.

According to him, there are no air defense systems capable of shooting down such missiles.

He called the use of the Oreshnik a response to Western long-range strikes on the Russian Federation and to US plans to produce and deploy medium- and short-range missiles.

He stated that the Russian Federation “will warn civilians in advance in the event of the use of systems such as Oreshnik.”

Anyway, whatever Russia uncorked at Ukraine today isn't an ICBM. ICBM's hit 25k MPH, this one was 8900 MPH. Too fast to be shot down, but still giving the recipients enough time to bend over and kiss their asses goodbye

Yes, he said within one day

At most he stop all forms of aid to Ukraine. You think the rest of NATO will sit by and let Russia whack Ukraine and advance westwards until they reach NATO countries borders?

Still got 2 months till DT steps in office. Alot of **** can change within 2 months

Russia seriously needs to test its ICBMs. It's war in Ukraine has shown that many of its military equipment were not working, due to poor technology or poor maintenance.

This hit on Ukraine is a safe way to test the ICBM to show NATO that the other ICBMs are in working condition.

Wonder how many ICBMs they have in stock. Very expensive missile

This is bs lah. Why would they need to use an icbm on Ukraine? End to end Ukraine only ard 1300km wide. Well within the range of most of putin's medium range missile. An icbm with conventional payload isn't actually much more powerful than most mrbm. Maybe just a few hundred kg more of explosive? Doesn't really justify shooting one at your neighbour where there are more economical options.

And btw, mrbms can also be nuclear tipped. So why shoot an icbm?

It is to send a message to threaten USA and Europe that Russia is ready to use Long range missiles (that works) on them with possible nuclear
