US Defense did not find money to support the development of Strategic Long Range Cannon Strategic Superproof Support (SLRC), writes The Drive.
According to the publication, financing the relevant program within the budget project for 2022 fiscal year is sharply reduced. Due to this circumstance, specific works on SLRC are planned to be replaced with general studies. The publication notes that the tests of the guns scheduled for 2023 are canceled.
In October 2020, the Popular Mechanics magazine wrote that the US Army is preparing to arm yourself with the SLRC gun capable of hitting the goals at a distance of 1150 miles (more than 1850 kilometers), which is 50 times higher than the possibilities of such modern acting tools. “From the North Sea of Montana could shelter goals in the west of Russia and even Moscow,” the publication assured.
At the same time, the Senior Researcher of the Academy of Military Sciences Vladimir Podborkilov said that such weapons are ineffective, and work on the relevant project is intended to master budget funds.
