Oreshnik Intermediate-Range Ballistic Missile: What do we know about Russia’s ‘Hazel’ IRBM?
Unprecedented Speed: Hypersonic missiles boast speeds of up to 12,250 km/h, capable of reaching targets from Russia to the UK in 19 minutes, Belgium in 14, Germany in 11, and Poland in just eight
Extended Range and Payload: With a range of up to 5,000 km, the missile can carry a nuclear warhead, delivering a 150-kiloton payload. Each missile may contain 3-6 warheads, each with individual guidance
Advanced Technology: The solid-fuel, hypersonic missile employs individual guidance for each warhead, enhancing its accuracy and destructive power
Comparison to ICBMs: While an Intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) from Russia could take approximately 40 minutes to reach a US target, this hypersonic missile significantly reduces flight time, underscoring its enhanced threat
Minimal Warning Time: The missile's speed and range allow it to strike with minimal warning, highlighting its potential for devastating surprise attacks

British military intelligence has stated that the line of combat for Ukraine is unstable, the advance of the Russian forces has accelerated and they outnumber the UAF. Now the ‘Oreshnik’ strike sends a strong message that could force submission.
