VisitRussia Unveils Hypersonic Oreshnik Missile with 4,000°C Warhead, Melts Steel Beams and Destroys Armored Vehicles
Nov 28, 2024, 04:30 PM
Russia has unveiled its new hypersonic missile, the Oreshnik, which features a warhead capable of reaching temperatures of 4,000 degrees Celsius. This extreme heat is nearly four times that of molten steel and is sufficient to vaporize concrete and destroy armored vehicles instantly. The destructive capabilities of the Oreshnik missile have been likened to the surface temperature of the Sun, highlighting its potential to melt metal and boil aluminum. Analysts have noted that at such velocities, the missile's kinetic energy may diminish the relevance of traditional explosive warheads, suggesting a shift in military technology that emphasizes the missile's thermal effects over conventional explosives.
