The military field is one of those that has benefited the most thanks to the advancement of technology . There are many weapons or machines that many armies around the world have implemented to have the latest in military technology and that this helps them improve their operations.
One of the most prominent examples is weapons , since bombs or devices capable of devastating entire populations can currently be created.
One of the most modern weapons to date is high-speed missiles , capable of flying at very high speeds and traveling a long distance in a short time, as well as having a very high destructive power.
This is the latest Russian hypersonic missile
This time Russia has tested its new missile prototype . The tests have been done in the northwest of the country, near the Scandinavian peninsula. The experiment consisted of making the missile hit a target that was on the ground more than 300 kilometers away.
The country’s authorities assured a couple of years ago that this missile would be capable of traveling at a speed much higher than that of sound and that it could reach targets that were very far away.
This type of hypersonic missile can be of two types : cruise and glide. Both models are characterized by reaching a speed greater than that of sound, but this new missile goes one step further. The difference is that one is fired through a rocket and the other maintains its trajectory in the air thanks to its engines.
A very powerful and dangerous weapon
The Russian country intends to use very dangerous and devastating explosive weapons inside these missiles, unlike other countries such as the United States.
Hypersonic missiles are characterized by not flying at a high altitude compared to traditional missiles. In addition, these have the possibility of moving quite easily in mid-air and making abrupt changes in trajectory despite the high speed they reach.
This makes them very difficult to intercept even for the latest defense systems built for it. The governments of the major world powers spend a good part of their budget on these defense systems to ensure the security of their nation.
Although the country has not yet given official details about the missile, what it has confirmed are all its details at both a tactical and technical level , thanks to the results obtained during the tests.
