Russia has tested the world’s deadliest Russia’s fastest missile. This missile is made so powerful that Russia has advanced in military power. The Russian Defense Ministry said the missile was tested in October 2020, this time the 3M22 Zircon (Russia’s fastest missile ) missile was launched from a warship. Zircon is one of the most talked about weapons of today.

About in zircon missile

A Russian Anti ship hypersonic missile, the 3M22 Zircon missile is unlike any other missile. This missile has already started to scare warring countries all over the world because of its high speed. This Russian missile traveled 1.6 kilometers per second or 5,700 kilometers per hour, it is capable of hitting targets 8 to 9 times faster than sound, this speed is calculated in Mach units, which means the speed of the 3M22 Zircon missile is eight to nine. Mach.

The 3M22 Zircon missile uses a scramjet engine which enables it to reach maximum speed. Zircon Missile This hypersonic missile can hit from any place, be it submarine or land surface. The 3m22 Zircon Missile has no problem pinpointing the target regardless of the distance to the enemy. Special thrusters have been developed for this missile which has given it hypersonic speed to a different level. When at full speed, the 3m22 Zircon missile creates a plasma cloud around itself that absorbs any radio waves and is able to hide itself from radar.

The missile has completed almost all stages of testing. Finally, the Zircon hypersonic missiles are being added to the submarines and land vehicles of the Russian Navy in the shortest possible time. With the missile successfully hitting a sea target in a test that caused a global stir, there is no doubt that the Zircon missile will take Russia’s military power to a different level. The Hypersonic Experimental Flying Vehicle developed this next-generation super-powerful missile that was first displayed in 1995. After a lot of testing, its strength and power have been increased and the 3m22 Zircon has become the powerful missile it is today. Read more
