Confirmed successful tests of hypersonics

The test was done when the super-fast missile was fired at the frigate Admiral Gorshkov in the White Sea hitting its target successfully that was close to the northwest Russian coast last Sunday. The US should now contemplate in deploying the hypersonic missiles in Europe,considering it might be a flashpoint for WW3.

Hitting a target beyond the visual range at 220 miles, this long-range weapon confirmed it would hit targets successfully, said Russian state media.
