Putin Reveals Russia’s Progress on Nuclear Cruise Missiles
(MENAFN) Russian President Vladimir Putin declared on Tuesday that Russia has initiated the creation of a new generation of nuclear-powered cruise missiles while attending an award presentation in Moscow.
“Development has begun on the next generation of nuclear-powered cruise missiles. Their speed will be more than three times the speed of sound, and in the future, they will even become hypersonic,” Putin stated at the Kremlin, where he presented national honors to the engineers behind the nation’s nuclear-powered Burevestnik missile and the Poseidon unmanned underwater system.
He further revealed that a “new generation of weapons” is currently under development in Russia, which, according to him, utilizes energy systems comparable to those incorporated in the Burevestnik and Poseidon projects.
During his remarks at the ceremony, Putin characterized the creation of the Burevestnik as being of “historic” importance for the Russian people and vital for “ensuring security and strategic parity for decades to come.”
Referring to the missile’s technical aspects, Putin asserted that a NATO ship was present in the vicinity during the Burevestnik test on October 21, yet Moscow “didn't interfere with its operations.”
“Work on the Poseidon is closely linked to the creation of Burevestnik. The technologies and technological innovations used in both are in many ways unique and complement each other,” Putin added.
He emphasized that the new locally manufactured materials developed during both programs will enable Russia to achieve significant advancements not only in defense but also across various civilian industries.
