Putin: Russia's first "salmat" intercontinental ballistic missile will enter combat duty at the end of this year

2022-06-22

Russian President Vladimir Putin said on the 21st that Russia's first "salmat" intercontinental ballistic missile will enter the combat duty at the end of this year. When Putin met with Russian military academy graduates in the Kremlin that day, he said that Russia has successfully completed the relevant tests of the "salmat" intercontinental ballistic missile, and the first missile will enter the combat duty at the end of this year. At the same time, the S-500 air defense missile system has begun to train and load the Russian army. Putin said that Russia will continue to develop and consolidate its armed forces to deal with potential military threats and risks. One of the current priorities is to equip the Russian army with the latest weapon systems, and the combat capability of the Russian army in the coming decades depends on this. Russia claims that its fifth generation heavy intercontinental ballistic missile "salmat" weighs more than 200 tons and can use a variety of nuclear warheads, including hypersonic warheads, to break through the enemy's anti missile system. It will replace the "Satan" intercontinental ballistic missile developed by the Soviet Union. In his state of the Union address in 2018, Putin introduced that the "killer mace" of the "salmat" intercontinental ballistic missile is to fly over the polar region to attack enemy targets in the other hemisphere. The existing and developing anti missile systems of other countries cannot deal with this attack mode, and it "can hit any corner of the earth". (Xinhua News Agency)
