Russian ballistic missile “Oreshnik” may have a completely different, but more common name.
This was reported by “URA-Inform” with reference to Defense Express.
Defense Express analysts noted that the name of the plant is currently in the open There is no data available about a Russian missile named “Oreshnik”. However, experts do not rule out that “Oreshnik” could be a name from working documentation as part of work on the RS-26 “Rubezh” missile.
«It is possible that this designation “Oreshnik” could well have appeared in the working documentation as part of the work on “product”, which is better known as the RS-26 “Rubezh”. Such “duality” is quite normal for the Russian military-industrial complex, and one can give the following illustration – the Russians also designate the Kh-101 cruise missile as “Product 504”, although of course the Kh-101 index is predominantly used,” the report says.
At the same time At the time, according to experts, Putin used the name “Oreshnik” to intimidate the West and create the impression that Moscow allegedly possesses new, previously unknown missile capabilities.
Recall that yesterday it became known that the Russian Federation struck Ukraine with intercontinental ballistics without a nuclear charge: what is Putin's goal?
