RS-28 Sarmat

The test launch of a Russian RS-28 Sarmat intercontinental ballistic missile likely failed earlier this month, according to experts and satellite images from the launch site.

It is understood that the nuclear weapon, which Russian President Vladimir Putin previously described as a "meteorite", can be launched outside the Earth's atmosphere and hit multiple targets anywhere in the world in less than 30 minutes, the British newspaper Express reports.

Last night, during a speech at a ceremony marking the end of military training in the Kremlin, he warned that "the special operation in Ukraine gave the Russian army invaluable experience." "Satan II", originally named "Sarmat", can carry up to 16 nuclear warheads and has a range of 18,000 km.

3,000 soldiers and about 300 technical units are participating in the exercises.
It is about checking the missile forces and exercises in which the Novosibirsk missile forces also take part, says the Ministry, as reported by Sputnik.
Maneuvers with "Yars" systems will be carried out in three regions of Russia.

"We will continue to develop and strengthen our armed forces, taking into account potential military threats and risks, and based on the lessons of modern armed conflicts, and improve their combat strength," Putin said, addressing military graduates.
Putin then said that a successful test of the heavy Sarmat intercontinental ballistic missile had been carried out.

Vladimir Solovyov, a well-known Russian journalist considered Putin's "belly fighter", threatened Britain today while talking to the head of the Russian Space Agency about the new, powerful RS-28 Sarmat intercontinental ballistic missile, which Russia plans to deploy to its armed forces by autumn, Daily Mail reports.

In early 2020, Russia will launch tests of the RS-28 Sarmat liquid-fueled intercontinental ballistic missile, Vedomosti reports, citing sources from the Ministry of Defense and Defense Industry.

The first two rockets will be fired from the silo of the Plesetsk spaceport to the Kura range on the Kamchatka Peninsula. At least five launches are planned.

Russia carried out a successful test of its Satan 2 nuclear missile on Thursday night, the country’s defence ministry said.
The rocket, also known as RS-28 Sarmat, was fired from the Plestek Cosmodrome and travelled 3,600 miles before hitting a target on the Kura test range.

Russia carried out an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) test in the country’s remote northwest ahead of a huge war game scheduled to begin later this week that will involve thousands of troops near the Belarus western border with NATO countries.

Russia has unveiled the very first image of a new super-heavy thermonuclear-armed intercontinental ballistic missile, the RS-28 Sarmat. The Sarmat, designed to be fitted with a hypersonic glider warhead, is expected to go into production as early as 2018.
