Head of the UK Defense Headquarters Tony Radakin stated that the country intends to begin the development of hypersonic weapons due to the presence of this type of weapons in Russia. He spoke about it in an interview with the Times newspaper.
“We do not have them (hypersonic missiles – approx.” Tape.ru “), we must possess them,” he said, explaining such a country’s plans to the growing military power of Russia.
On December 24, Russian President Vladimir Putin spoke about the hypersonic launch of Zircon’s hypersonic missiles. “Tests were successful, flawlessly. This is a great event in the life of the country and a significant step in improving the safety of Russia, in increasing its defense capability,” Putin said.
