Considering the speed during the target approach, he continues, it can be conclusively stated that the warhead resembles an unmanned maneuverable glider, which, after reaching the apex of its trajectory (into outer space), glides toward the target rather than falling along a ballistic trajectory. This makes the block difficult to track using radar and to intercept with surface-to-air missiles.
Moreover, the expert emphasizes that these gliders approach their targets at speeds comparable to those of meteors engulfed in plasma. Thus, he claims, this can be classified as a new type of weaponry, such as kinetic or meteoric.
“This is assuming that all the work and calculations of the designers and manufacturers are correct, and all procedures will be followed. However, that rarely happens, given the mentality of the population of our northern neighbor. Therefore, one launch, even if successful, does not indicate that the entire system is fully operational. In reality, in the rocket and space industry, it is necessary to conduct up to 10 launches to ensure success,” concludes Oleg Starikov.
