Caporegime
Their main future weapon is supposed to be avangard which can carry nuclear warheads and supposedly goes all the way into space before coming back down
you do if they don't travel in a perfectly straight line though.
aren't most missiles these days meant to adjust their course on the fly
Cram probably works but I'm assuming it's range only covers small areas
seems something still got through though unless the second part of the video is fake
You do know an ICBM goes into space....and travels at a higher.speed than a hypersonic missile...
What next it can flip 360 and shoot lasers?
Belarussian diplomats have left Ukraine, this is a sign that belarussian troops might join the fight anytime soon. Also sea mines have drifted south of the black sea because of strong winds, sailing has become dangerous on the west coast of the Black sea. A proper mess
I think they only travel faster than hypersonic when they are on their way down, not on the way up. Just guessing though.

Possibly I'm not actually sure how fast the initial booster stage actually is but it can't be too slow.
More smoke and mirrors from Russia with regards to the poor technology they have, trying to bluff a full house when they only have a high card. Nothing added up with that video anyway, hits an ammunition storage facility but no secondary explosions.
It's apparent at this point that we're dealing with the worst kind of narcissist personality in Putin. This guy is the kitchen sink of everything that is bad with that disorder. It's for this reason we should be concerned.
Unless we can find a way of making the guy thinking he's won without actually winning anything then this has the potential to escalate out of control as he feeds his compulsive obsession to win at all costs.
So he wants - he wins?
1. What is his definition of win.
2. Change what he wants as a win.
3. Change his support structure required to win (For example China).
4. Change if he can afford to win.
If he simply wanted to save face, and he had unquestionable authority - then he would simply stop. Say he has won and liberated the Russians from the Neo-nazis, drew a border and decided for the country that is enough for today.
The reason he can't simply stop is twofold in my view:
1. He doesn't want to - because he's used to the appearance of total power, so this is an aberration in his reality.
2. He only holds power by keeping some other senior figures happy. He can shoot them if they fail, but if he fails, it is just apparent, it breeds discontent that shooting people won't solve (don't stop him trying - we've not seen that just yet).
My feeling is he's doing what he has set out todo (losses of people are irrelevant). Only when he fails to have enough enforcement of borders and internally will he stop sending troops and start escalating hardware.
What putin hasn't twigged yet ... Russia is being a proxy puppet state for China in the new era of China-US proxy wars.
