The Australian/The Times: Kremlin to test missile that ‘beats all defence systems’
The military is preparing to carry out flight tests of its next-generation intercontinental ballistic missile, a weapon it claims can overcome any defences.
The RS-28 Sarmat is destined to replace the R-36, named SS-18 Satan by NATO.
Weighing 208 tonnes and with a range of about 6200 miles (9977km), the Sarmat will carry up to 16 warheads and, according to Moscow, will be capable of bypassing any missile defence system.
It could carry a payload capable of destroying an area the size of Texas or France, according to Zvezda, the Russian defence ministry’s TV channel.
