About our Kinzhal news
Latest news on the Kinzhal, a type of hypersonic missile developed by Russia that can be launched from aircraft, such as the MiG-31 fighter jet. The missile is designed to fly at speeds of up to Mach 10, or 7,680 miles per hour, and has a range of over 1,200 miles. It uses a manoeuvrable reentry vehicle, which allows it to evade enemy defences and strike targets with great accuracy.
The development of the Kinzhal missile is part of Russia's broader effort to modernise its military capabilities and maintain its strategic deterrent against potential adversaries. It has been touted by Russian officials as a game-changing weapon that can overcome any existing missile defence system.
