The news that the new Sarmat missile system, already put into service in Russia, can wipe London off the face of the earth in six minutes scared the British, Express newspaper columnist Matthew Dooley wrote about it on March 2 .
The new missile system has already been baptized “Satan II” and its data impressed the British. “It measures a staggering 35 meters (116 feet) in length, weighs 220 tons and is a multi-mount, independently guided missile. This allows several objectives to be achieved at the same time,” the journalists quote.
According to the United States Center for Strategic and International Studies, the missile system is capable of covering distances of 6,200 to 11,180 miles (10 to 18 thousand kilometers), that is, covering the entire territory of Europe and most of the United States. .
Matthew Dooley is sure that the complex was designed as a warning to the West. In the end it worked “a monstrous nuclear weapon capable of sending up to 15 warheads to any point on the planet”.
Recall that “Sarmat” is a Russian silo-based fifth-generation strategic missile system with a heavy multi-stage liquid-fueled intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM). Capable of hitting targets at long distances using various flight trajectories.
