What are the "Oreshnik" missiles launched by Russia, not recognized by

The conflict in Ukraine is taking on a new dimension after Russia's use of an unknown missile system called the Oreshnik, which is causing concern in the West.

The attack in Dnipro was accompanied by a speech by Russian President Vladimir Putin, raising serious concerns about the progress of the war.

The specific missile test, as he described it, and the speed with which tensions are escalating in the region, reinforce fears of further escalation with global consequences.

The West's lack of information about the characteristics of this hypersonic weapon and Putin's threatening rhetoric add to the sense of uncertainty and diplomatic pressure.

The Oreshnik missiles are one of the most advanced missile systems that Moscow has developed over the past five years.

These missiles belong to the new generation of long-range missiles, but not intercontinental range, as was officially announced by Kiev a few hours ago.

Oreshniks are one of the weapons whose characteristics and dynamics are currently lacking in the West.

According to what Russian President Vladimir Putin stated and reported by Russian media, the main advantage of these missiles is the speed with which they hit their targets during descent.

More specifically, the Oreshniks develop a speed of 2 to 3 kilometers per second, which makes them practically "invisible" to air defense systems, which Kiev has currently developed mainly around its large urban centers and main units of energy.

Oreshniks belong to the "family" of hypersonic weapons as they actually hit at speeds exceeding 10,800 km/h and belong to the category that includes missiles traveling at speeds between 6,100 km/h and 12,300 km/h.

Oreshniks are also capable of multiple warheads and are not intercontinental, but long-range, as they travel at a distance of no more than 900 kilometers.

What is also certain based on Putin's words is that the Dnipro strike is the first that Russia has attempted with this particular weapon system.

In fact, Vladimir Putin called it a "test", which is the most disturbing of the developments of the last 5 days.

If Russia has made the decision to respond to Western ballistic attacks on its territory even using weapons that are still being tested, then the escalation is likely to have dimensions that the West and Kiev today do not seem to have calculated.

Escalation that won't last long and the Russian message

Attacks by both sides with sophisticated weapons systems, which on the Ukrainian side include targets inside Russian territories and on the Russian side "test" shots against real targets are in themselves a situation that can only be characterized as extremely disturbing.

Putin's speech shows that even at the diplomatic level, events are taking place at a high speed, not yet "supersonic", like those of the weapons used, but certainly faster than the rates necessary to analyze the data and draw conclusions. clearly where the situation is going.

The message, the speech of the president of Russia with the same background, the same tone of voice and almost the same content had brought almost three years ago, in the early hours of February 24, 2022, the beginning of the Russian occupation of the territories of Ukraine.

Putin's position also for the first time after a long time had clear messages for the West...

The Russian president, noting that his country will "inform citizens before the corresponding strikes", did not fail to emphasize that this warning is not only about Ukraine, but every point from which Western weapons that hit targets in its territory.
