Russians Unimpressed As Putin Claims His Missiles Missed On Purpose
Russian President Vladimir Putin claimed that recent launches of the Oreshnik ballistic missile were not intended to hit military targets but were instead a test, with warheads deliberately striking empty areas. This statement has drawn criticism from Russian war commentators, who view it as an attempt to cover up the failure of a new "superweapon." The Oreshnik missile, derived from the RS-26, is capable of striking targets over 3,000 miles away and has been deployed twice previously, with questionable effectiveness. AI
