Previously, Russia hit the Dnieper with experimental ballistics of the middle range. It became clear that it was the Kedr missile, although the Kremlin dictator Volodymyr Putin even talked about the Oreshnik missile, but somehow Ukraine once again became a testing ground for the development of the Russian Federation.
Report about this, Alas, Putin saw “Oreshnik”, against whom the demonstration of force was authorized and such attacks could be repeated, – from the material of RBC-Ukraine.

Strike on the Dnieper with a new ballistic missile: what we know
Zranku On the 21st leaf fall, the Russians launched a massive missile strike on the Dnieper. Zokrem, launched an aeroballistic “Dagger”, one X-101 (six were shot down) and an intercontinental ballistic missile.
“There was a new Russian missile. All characteristics – speed, height – Intercontinental ballistic. Expertise is contagious. It is obvious that Putin treats vikorist Ukraine as a testing ground,” said President Volodymyr Zelensky.
It appears that the missile was launched from the Astrakhan region, where the RS-26 Rubezh complexes are based at the Kapustin Yar training ground. They are approved for nuclear strikes over a range of up to 6000 km. From Kapustin Yar to the Dnieper there are about 800 km and a missile was launched without a warhead.
It is significant that the strike was expected the day before the 20th leaf fall. Read more in materials “New ballistics? What is known about the Russian RS-26 Rubezh missile and why they started talking about it.”

Both Ukrainian media and Russian Z-channels wrote about those that the Rubezh missile could hit the Dnieper. The head of the Dnipropetrovsk regional military administration, Sergey Lisak, informed about the improvement of the industrial enterprise. Pro-Kremlin bloggers confirmed that the missile attacked the Pivdenmash plant.
Videos of the devastating attack appeared on Telegram channels. They show six bursts lasting a few seconds, and at the skin level the ammunition still disintegrates into a few pieces. Strong vibrations were visible at the site.
Speaker of the European Union Peter Stano called the stagnation of intercontinental ballistics the next round of escalation. In his words, Putin has once again staked his claim in the nuclear war. German Chancellor Olaf Scholz speaks of a “greedy escalation” through the outbreak of a new disease. China, in a powerful manner, called on all sides to “keep calm and show calm.”
This hour, Kiev calls an emergency meeting for the sake of Ukraine-NATO on equal footing after the upcoming second week, 26 leaf fall.
It is significant that the intelligence agencies have been asked to write about a medium-range missile. Ale, rather, nutritional classification. The fragments of the same “Rubezh” at Zakhod are used as a medium-range missile, up to 5500 km. In the face of intercontinental ballistics, Moscow may be ahead of the United States, so as not to provoke a scenario of an attack on the Soviet Union. As it was later, there was a delay.
“Hazel” from Putin. It’s like the Kremlin
Putin’s Evening Fury, when he revealed the name of the rocket, the cards were confused. Behind his words, the target near the Dnieper was attacked in line with the “aggressive actions of NATO countries,” threatening an attack by ATACMS ballistic missiles and Storm Shadow missiles near the Bryansk and Kursk regions.
“Combat minds also tested one of the new Russian mid-range missile systems – this type includes a ballistic missile in non-nuclear hypersonic equipment. Ours The rocket scientists called it “Hazelnut,” said Vin.
In words, it is impossible to resist such characters as “Hazelnut” today. The missiles attack targets at speeds of Mach 10 (about 2.5-3 km per second). And no current approaching missile defense systems can be overcome.
The fragments are from experimental destruction, reliable data There is no mention of her among the most popular people. The effective range can be up to 5500 km, judging by the Russian production of medium-range missiles. And you can get the RS-26 Rubezh for the entire base model.
The dangers of such a rocket are not without speed. It is impossible to say in advance whether there will be a nuclear warhead on it, for example. That same aerobalistic “Dagger” can be combined with a number of submunitions and small nuclear bombs. Not turned on, which is similar to what was implemented in Oreshnik. Whatever the case, everything is still in the thick of things, and about “Oreshnik” only those who declared Putin, even military expert Pavlo Narozhny, said.
“Cedar”, not “Oreshnik”
Prote, According to the official Ukrainian version, the attack on the Dnieper was carried out not by the RS-26 Rubezh or by the Oreshnik
The last hour from the moment of launch in the Astrakhan region until the high tide became 15 hours. The missile had six warheads, each of which was equipped with six more submunitions. And the speed at the end of the trajectory exceeded Mach 11.
According to the power steering data, previously testing of the “Cedar” took place at the Kapustin Yar training ground in early 2023 and early 2024 Roku. Prior to the development of the mobile complex, there was low production of the Russian military-industrial complex in Moscow, Volgograd and Voronezh.
The insignificance has been strengthened, leaving the third option for the name of intercontinental ballistics at the end of the day. On the other hand, depending on the Pentagon’s estimates, it is logical to conclude that “Kedr” is a development of “Rubezh”, and to operate on the designated “Oreshnik”, write Defense Express.
Russian dzherelakh “Cedar” is known for its nuances. At the beginning of 2021, fate was informed about the start of a project for a “strategic complex of a new generation” with this name. And in one publication it was reported that the complex was being created to replace the smaller mobile and heavy-duty Yars ICBM. The same propagandist wrote that the “Cedar” project was included in the program until 2024, the transition to the stage of pre-testing and design work was planned for 2023-2024, and until the end 2020s.
The mobility of the complex gives the advantage that a launch can be organized practically from any point in Russia, which reduces the threat of a storm on the ground. In addition, there is fantastic information that the rocket will become unstable for a quick climb, after which the combat unit will collapse to the ground at a speed of about 28 Machs, with no more than small height. Such a combat unit can hardly be beaten by current missile defense.
Prote Pavlo Narozhny still insists on hiding on the power steering data. “The speed of the “Cedar” reaches 11 Machs, and three times more, the “Dagger” below gives us, – adding vin.
The head of military intelligence, Kirilo Budanov, stated that Russia could fire “two or three times more” before the last shots of the Kedr ballistic missile. In other words, “Hazel” is the name of the scientific research work. The system itself is called “Kedr”, it is a mid-range ballistics device designed for nuclear strikes. There is no mention of serial production.
Defense Express analysts agree that “Kedr” is the secret name of the new system, which is an evolution of the Yars ICBM. Possibly, Yars is acting as a designer for assembling a medium-range missile with a light warhead for 5500 km and an important one for a long range. From such an explanation it is clear that “Cedar” could suddenly become both “Hazel Tree” and “Rubezh”.
Who and what is Putin threatening
Yesterday’s brutality of Putin was addressed to the western lands, which will I will destroy Ukraine. Foreign serpents have adopted this word in different ways.
For example, the Associated Press reports an expert who says that the new missiles will “overturn everything that has been noted so far.” Reuters writes about the alarm, and The New York Times, in its communications to officials, emphasizes that the missile may not meet the characteristics stated by Putin.
The Russian dictator himself insisted that after ATACMS and Storm Shadow strikes on Russian territory, he has the right to strike targets in the USA, Great Britain and France. “I recommend that the ruling elites of these countries seriously think about how they are hatching plans to conquer their military contingents against Russia,” he threatens.
All this is the taint of Europe and the United States, as they work on the methods of delivering nuclear ammunition, and now Putin is allegedly launching a new hypersonic missile with a nuclear warhead. On the other hand, to make Zakhid happy, please support Ukraine, even Narozhny.
“The essence of all dictatorial regimes is simple: marvel, I am divine, I have a great missile and I can hit with a missile. Save Putin, save Kim Jong-in, save absolutely all dictators,” – Rozpov spіvrozmovnik.
In my opinion, there is no real threat of stagnation of this type of missiles with nuclear warheads. Because a strike on Kiev, Dnieper and other parts of Ukraine with tactical ammunition is a nuclear strike on Europe.
“And Putin lies in Europe, because he sells gas, naphtha, and we can’t just cut ties. And most importantly, Chinese leader Xi Jinping is categorically against the rise of a nuclear war. And Putin is 100% lie with comrade S. His entire economy has now been transferred to China,” the expert added.
How can the strike be repeated and how can Ukraine shoot down the Kedr missiles
At the same time, Narozhny includes that a strike from such a missile can repeat itself, but in Conventional Vikonanny. And not less so as a devilish imitation. “You have to fill it not with concrete, but with a vibrator. It’s absolutely real. It’s difficult to estimate the impact of such a blow, at the cost of tens of millions of dollars,” – each one.
Given the possible mass of a warhead of 1.2 tons, then from the military point of view the attack on the table with expensive ballistics (without a nuclear charge) does not make any sense. Russia practically every day throws 100-120 cabs to Sumi, Kharkov, Zaporizhzhya and front-line places, and their total load is much greater.
“If we talk about massive attacks on 100 missiles, then a typical missile or ballistic missile carries up to 500 kg. And approximately up to 10%, unfortunately, goes through our PPO system. If you take 10 missiles, then we take 5 tons, which they fly. What change 1.2 tons for all this history? Nothing more than to strengthen the psychological pressure,” said Narozhny.
The psychological pressure can be strengthened by statements from the Kremlin about the fact that the Russian army is “providing mechanisms for alerting the civilian population of Ukraine in the event of new attacks by ballistic missiles.” Previously, Putin also said that once systems such as “Oreshnik” have stagnated, later “openly and publicly” to encourage civilians to deprive unsafe zones.
“Don't worry, so Ukrainians switched on the official news of Russia, so that the Ukrainians would marvel and cut off portions of nonsense and propaganda. It is necessary to trust the official authorities of Ukraine,” explains the expert.
In today's Ukraine there is nothing to beat mid-range hypersonic ballistics with. MZS Speaker Georgiy Tikhy respects that our future partners should think about supplying the necessary complexes. In his words, the allies are already extracting specific targets, but it is too early to reveal the details.
Such missiles approach the target at an extremely high speed, dropping dozens of submunitions, the task of which is to “sun” great territory. Theoretically, it is possible to knock down missiles to the terminal site, for example, with the American THAAD complex, such as Narozhny.
THAAD is intended for interception of ballistic missiles at ranges up to 200 km and at altitudes up to 100-150 km. The prospect of its transfer to Ukraine is considered remote. Zokrema, through the road, the cost of one complex is close to 3 billion dollars.
“And we still have no word on the transfer of such a complex. We have been asking for Patriot for a long time. And before that, To get caught in a melodious manner, THAAD needs to be covered at least in all regional centers. And we don’t have much of a Patriot spirit,” the expert concluded.
In the meantime, the RBC-Ukraine correspondent at the ZSU General Staff reported that the Ukrainian side Initiate negotiations with partners to eliminate devices like THAAD or to ensure the modernization of the Patriot to the ability to beat mid-range ballistics.
