Moment ‘invisible’ Russian hypersonic missile destroys Ukraine armed base
19.03.2022 - 17:59 / dailyrecord.co.uk
Fresh drone footage has revealed the moment Russia launched a hypersonic missile strike on Ukraine yesterday.
A clip taken from a military drone shows an army base in the Ivano-Frankivsk region being struck by a Kinzhal hypersonic missile and the aftermath as people fled through the snow.
Smoke can be seen billowing through the air during the recording after a bright flash lights the screen at the moment the missile hit the target.
Russian military defence confirmed it had used hypersonic weapons for the first time in combat during the strike.
The use of the missiles is the latest indication that Vladimir Putin is becoming increasingly desperate as his military struggles to carry out his illegal invasion of Ukraine.
The strike is believed to have been carried out using Kinzhal - or ‘Dagger’ - missiles, which have been claimed to have a range of around 2,000 km, according to Mirror Online.
Their speed and ability to fly low makes them “invisible” to most anti-missile defence systems, and they are capable of carrying nuclear warheads, experts have said.
Russia said it had also destroyed Ukrainian military radio and reconnaissance centres near the port city of Odessa using a coastal missile system, Interfax news agency reported.
It is unknown how many casualties there were in the strikes.
“The Kinzhal aviation missile system with hypersonic aero-ballistic missiles destroyed a large underground ammunition depot in the Ivano-Frankivsk region,” said Russian Defense Ministry spokesman Igor Konashenkov.
Putin said in December that Russia was the global leader in hypersonic missiles, whose speed, manoeuvrability and altitude make them difficult to track and intercept.
The Kinzhal missiles are part of an array of weapons unveiled
