The hypersonic medium-range ballistic missile dubbed Oreshnik instils fear in Russia’s opponents for its supreme capabilities.
They know that there is virtually no defence against this brand-new weaponry.
Oreshnik missiles could reach NATO’s headquarters in Brussels in less than 20 minutes if fired from Russia’s polygon of Kapustin Yar.
Covering up to 3 km per second and generating almost a Sun-surface hit at the time of explosion, Oreshnik can also be armed with a nuclear warhead, bringing certain doom for anyone who threatens Russia and its people.
