The world of weapons can't create a world of peace..
For peace to reign everyone must surrender their spending on weapons

socialmediaman:


Possibly True. The zircon can be taken out by systems currently in place. The only problem they pose is that they close in faster, giving you less time to target them, so all you need do is extend your radar detection and get them faster as well

Nah no missile interception can catch up to the zircon, mind you they maneuver during flight

OneKinGuy:
US has successfully tricked mother Russia to spend billions on a missile they know they can shoot down

The funny thing about Nigerians is they underestimate anything not USA. Yes.., America is powerful...but so are alot of other countries. If the Americans are really as powerful as they want us to believe, they wouldn't accept all these bullshyt from China, Russia, Iran etc

MrColdsweat:
Spending billions on weapons instead of fighting world hunger.

The Investment in MILITARY Hardware and Software as well as space technology among many others is the reason for world hunger .... They are very expensive and deny investment into food sector!!

Meanwhile, Buhari's achievement is the arrest and repatriation of MNK.

Capable of ‘evading all Western defences to wipe out cities’


A third world war is going to be very devastating.

I pity Russians because it's anti missiles has already been developed by Western world.
Secondly, the site that is housing all those missiles are already mapped out for destruction first if the need arises.

There is no current system known to the public that is able to shoot down hypersonic missiles. The S-500 Prometheus which was tested today can come close, but the Aegis system SM-3 missile is far from it.

There is too much hype about the hypersonic systems, the speed resembles that of the Kh-47 Khinzal, the technology is not new and it has precision and control issues, current systems can target them as i understand: https://spectrum.ieee.org/tech-talk/aerospace/military/hypersonic-missiles-are-being-hyped

emae009:


why una dey like this. Join the hype of hypersonic... What's the speed of a ballistic missile on reentry? (Mach 30). You're saying a missile defense system that uses a hard to kill vehicle not an explosive head o! can't intercept a Mach 7 warhead?

.

ICBM has a predictable path of travel so it's easier to intercept them during their second phase that's why during their re-entry (terminal phase) its hard to intercept them.
Hypersonic missile travel within the atmosphere, meaning lesser detection time and difficulty in intercept due to their maneuver and unpredictable pathway. Mind you missile defense interceptors also travel at hypersonic speed to intercept warhead at space but within the atmosphere they travel at Mach 3+. So there'll be outrun by hypersonic missiles

Don't mind that young man you quoted, he and a lot of people greatly under-estimate the capabilities of Russia. There's no anti-missile system currently in place that can take out the Zircon. Even with long-distance radar, Zircon can still take out a target. They're not even designed to directly hit a target before taking out the target, they're designed to detonate in close proximity to a target and shockwaves from the detonation will take out the target. Russia leads the world in missile tech but the West-controlled news media wont let you know this

It's not as easy as you said... There's no missile anywhere and these sites can't be wiped because they are Mobile, shipborne

But the US tested a hypersonic recently: https://www.upi.com/Defense-News/2021/07/09/hypersonic-test-usaf/8671625852554/

FarahAideed:
For those that don't know hypersonic is any thing that exceeds the speed of sound by 5 times ..This particular missile is doing 7 times the speed of sound , meaning it would have finished hitting it's target long before you hear it

and you believed it?

So do they want to use it for Dragon or what??

Britain will think twice again before sending military ship to tresspass the crimea waters said to be annexxed by the russian government of president Putin.

1) there's nothing like an anti-missile.
2) Do you realize that most missiles these days are mounted on mobile launch systems?? The missile in this post was launched from a ship, can you map a ship that's not immobile?
3) I think you need to read more about Russian defense systems, they have the current best long-range missile defense system in the world, the S400, which better than the US' Patriot system. I learnt they're currently developing the S500

When nature start fighting back through natural disasters now, they will start showing pitiful faces and be choking us with the amount they will be using to rehabilitate all the effects of natural disasters...

They keep destroying the land, water and air with their nuclear weapons and you expect nature not to react back?....

leave them,pale looking demons.
A whole Nation will dedicate scarce resources just to make weapons.
That's to show you that the whiteman is mad

Nigeria is still battling with bandits

This is not about article but using common sense and reality, even missile defense doesn't have 100% effectiveness against current supersonic missile, ordinary less advanced Iraq scud missile, the US missile defense fails to intercept on most occasions (during the gulf War) this is a missile with less speed and less technology. Now tell me if it's now an advance Russia missile with hypersonic claim they can now defend against.

socialmediaman:

Hypersonic systems just need to move at x5 of the speed of sound. The US systems moves at that speed. The Russian system moves at X7 the speed of sound, it'll easily out-pace the US system. It's also maneuverable in-flight and that gives it great tactical advantage in evading anti-missile systems

mach7:
Here comes The Sun again and their propagandist articles....

Is it Putin that owns the hypersonic missile?

Abeg they should shift base.

is true not propaganda but Russia knows America is far ahead in weapon fear who does not display his military strength America the don't displace there power

I believe the US THAAD and SM 3 are catching up. Though s400 seems more badass to me, but they can be vulnerable to stealth attack.

There are arguments that at the speed they operate, trying to control them to avoid defense systems would send them off target by hundreds of meters at the slightest change of direction especially when they are close. Also at that speed, they tend to lose their detection guide against defense systems.

Abeg come and test the weapon in the north cos it's needs to be tested well in the zoo

engrchykae:

Why won't I believe when aircraft have been flying 5 times the speed of sound since 1950s

I have asked them to unite and join forces together and nuke everywhere, let everybody rest.

Note... most of what is written here is theory.... similar to COVID19 vaccines that were authorized based on theory. Russia has been doing practicals.... they know better. I believe they are more battle ready and have better weaponry that the U.S. China too.... but they never talk. They must give warnings ... and follow through. Why is the US so often declare it has the right to sail or fly in a particular area but always back down when confronted by China or Russia? It couldn't be for the sake of peace.
