(MENAFN- UkrinForm) A Russian Kh-55 missile, downed over Kyiv on November 17, originally intended to carry a nuclear payload. At the same time, a nuclear warhead dummy was installed, an examination of the missile debris found. That's according to the Strategic Communications Center of the armed forces of Ukraine, referring to the Ukraine-based Defense express outlet, Ukrinform reports.
'Simply put - for this strike, the orcs took at least one Kh-55 missile from their 'nuclear arsenal,' 'unscrewed' the nuclear warhead and replaced it with a dummy before firing it at Ukraine. Although we should not rule it out that as events develop, at least a few such missiles will be seen,' StratCom noted.
According to technoilogy.org , this surprising discovery raises some interesting questions.
“There is a chance that the Russian Federation is running out of conventional missiles of Kh-555 modification and they are using Kh-55 instead. If a nuclear charge was taken out, does this mean Russian soldiers forgot to put a conventional warhead in its place? Or, if a nuclear warhead was taken out, where is it now?” the publication wrote.

As reported by Ukrinform, on November 17, four missiles and five Shahed drones were destroyed during an air raid alert over Kyiv.
